Loveland-based tech company first to lease from Cumberland & Western<\/i><\/p>\n
Loveland, CO \u2013 DataTraks (www.datatraks.com<\/a>), a custom engineering and software solutions company, will move to the Rocky Mountain Center for Innovation and Technology (RMCIT – http:\/\/rmcinnovate.com<\/a>) in Loveland, Colorado. The company will be the first tenant to move into the RMCIT facility, helping to revitalize the currently vacant campus.<\/p>\n As an incentive for DataTraks to move in to the RMCIT campus, the Loveland City Council approved $19,500 to be paid from the Economic Development Incentive Fund to DataTraks. The payment was contingent upon the company signing a five-year lease with Cumberland & Western, and will help DataTraks offset some of the cost of relocating and acquiring equipment. Signing the final lease agreement in early September made DataTraks the first official tenant of the RMCIT facility.<\/p>\n “Since we’re first, they wanted to make sure everything was correct,” stated Jim Bilodeau, DataTraks\u2019 founder and president. Originally located in downtown Loveland, DataTraks makes a significant change moving to RMCIT, almost doubling their facility space. The company will occupy approximately 7,000 square feet of space in the lower D building of the campus. This expansion comes with further plans to develop additional services and capabilities.<\/p>\n \u201cWe\u2019ve hired three people this year, but as we continue to grow we\u2019ll eventually be hiring more,\u201d said Bilodeau. \u201cAs a company, we\u2019re excited to be the first in the space, and we\u2019ll be more excited to have some cool companies move in next to us.\u201d With plans to be in the new facility within 90 days, Bilodeau cited limited parking and space for growth as motivating factors in moving his organization to the new campus. Many hope DataTraks\u2019 move will provide momentum that leads to additional leases and an atmosphere that benefits other new tenants.<\/p>\n The design for DataTraks\u2019 new space was done by Kenney and Associates Architects (www.kenneyarch.com<\/a>) of Loveland. Tenant finish will be completed by Loveland-based R&L Builders.<\/p>\n About DataTraks<\/b><\/p>\n DataTraks was founded in 1998 to help railroad operators make critical decisions regarding the development and maintenance of safe, effective rail systems.
