Software company moves to Ridge

Published 7:02 pm Thursday, October 2, 2008

Great Plains Software will join several other high tech companies

at the Snoqualmie Ridge Business Park.

The company signed a 10-year lease for the entire top floor of

the business park’s Cascade View building. The new space will be used

primarily for software development and will eventually house 130 employees.

“It was important for us to find a quality project with a nice

atmosphere that was also unique so our location could support our recruiting

efforts,” said company spokeswoman Nicole Kruse.

Great Plains Software delivers integrated front office/back office

e-business solutions for the mid-market. The North Dakota business

currently has an office in Renton. The company is expected to move in by June.
