BOULDER, Colo., April 3, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Catapult PR-IR (www.catapultpr-ir.com), a leader in public relations services for technology companies, today announced it has been selected as the Agile Alliance's agency of record for the seventh consecutive year to provide public relations services and counsel. The Agile Alliance (http://www.agilealliance.org) is a non-profit organization dedicated to supporting the advancement of Agile software development principles and practices. Catapult provides strategic support for ongoing Agile Alliance initiatives and programs, international events and on-site support for the industry's leading annual conference, including this year's Agile2013 Conference in Nashville, Tenn.

"I can't think of another PR firm that has as much experience within the Agile industry and community as Catapult, and that knowledge has helped the Agile Alliance promote its good work around the globe," said Phil Brock, managing director for the Agile Alliance. "Relationships are a cornerstone to the Agile community and we are extremely pleased to continue our long-standing relationship with the team at Catapult."

Catapult began its own Agile journey when it helped launch Rally Software in 2004 as the first SaaS-based software for managing what was then a grassroots-led industry initiative. Its team members attended and provided counsel at the first Agile Conference in Denver, and it has provided PR support for every conference since. Currently, Catapult represents industry leaders CollabNet (Enterprise Cloud Development, Agile, ALM) and Tasktop Technologies (ALM integration). Catapult also has provided support to other companies within the industry, including: Danube, ThoughtWorks, SolutionsIQ, Jama Software and independent consultant and luminary Dean Leffingwell.

"It has been awesome to watch the Agile development movement mature over the years and to work with the Agile Alliance to promote the benefits of iterative software delivery methods," said Guy Murrel, co-founder and principal at Catapult. "Our seven-year partnership has been successful for both parties, and we look forward to continued success during the coming years."
