July 2006 • Volume 3, Issue 7 This issue home | Past issues | Chamber home Argo Data Resource Corporation Relocates 200 Employees, Headquarters To Richardson ARGO Data Resource Corporation, a company providing leading technology-based solutions to the financial services industry, has announced it has leased 55,394 square feet of office space in Richardson, for a new corporate headquarters. The headquarters, in the Collins Crossing development at 1500 N. Greenville Ave. in Richardson, between Arapaho and Campbell roads, will house approximately 200 ARGO employees. ARGO, currently located at 12770 Coit Road (Banner Place), Suite 600 in Dallas, expects to relocate to Richardson in October 2006. The Staubach Company’s Steve Jarvie, senior vice president, and Greg Burns, vice president, served as the brokers representing ARGO in the deal. Randy Shipman, senior vice president of the Trammell Crow Company’s office leasing group, represented the landlord, Franklin Street Partners. “We are pleased to announce the relocation of our headquarters to Richardson, which will enable us to continue our strong growth and industry leadership,” said David Engebos, president and COO of ARGO. “As one of the U.S. financial services industry’s top-valued software application solutions providers, we felt Richardson was the ideal location for our headquarters, given the city’s comparable cluster of world-class software and information technology companies and its convenient access for our employees to their homes and the region’s airports. Collins Crossing also provides us with a Class A space that reflects our relationship with top-tier financial services firms across the U.S.” The announcement comes on the heels of other significant activity nearby in Richardson, including the recent signing for the headquarters of visual simulation solutions provider MultiGen, and the purchase of the new headquarters of printed circuit board designer and manufacturer Automated Circuit Design. (See stories in this edition.) “We are extremely excited about ARGO’s decision to relocate its headquarters to Richardson,” said John Jacobs, senior vice president of the Richardson Economic Development Partnership. “Richardson continues to fill its remaining office space with companies that are innovators in their respective industries, including companies in the technology and financial services sectors. Richardson’s heritage of innovation, strong educational institutions, highly educated workforce and valued community partners have been critical in continuing to attract leading companies to the area.” About ARGO Data Resource Corporation Founded in 1980, ARGO (www.argodata.com) has grown into a nationally recognized leader in providing technology-based solutions to the retail financial services industry.
