COMPANY PROFILE
Borland (NASDAQ: BORL) has been an application development vendor since being founded in 1983, and by 1992 it had become a leading client/server tools provider. The mid-1990s saw a downturn in fortunes, but this was addressed by a focus shift from individual developer productivity to team productivity (in particular with the
acquisition of Starbase Corporation, which brought the CaliberRM and StarTeam SCM solutions into the product mix), and therefore increased relevance to enterprise application development. A more recent restatement of focus towards Borland’s SDO (Software Delivery Optimisation) vision brought the need to transform software
development into a predictable and reliable business function, and the acquisition of Segue earlier in 2006 (and with it the testing-related capabilities within SCTM, SilkTest, SilkPerformer, and SilkPerformer SOA Edition) is a means of meeting this vision in part.
Borland’s corporate headquarters are in Cupertino, California, and has major offices on the US East Coast, and in the UK, Germany, France, Austria, Singapore, Australia, Japan, The Netherlands, and Ireland (as well as smaller scale offices in many other locations). Following its series of acquisitions, the company now has around 1200 employees worldwide, of whom 55% are based in the USA, 30% in the Europe, Middle East, and Africa (EMEA) region, and 15% in Asia Pacific. Its Research and Development (R&D) function operates on a global scale, with development teams based in California, Russia, the Czech Republic, and Singapore, with 557 people undertaking roles in R&D or technical support. Borland also has 69 people active in marketing, 12 in legal roles, 15 in human resources, 151 in finance, and 501 in field operations (sales and services roles). Overall it expects to add 10% to the size of its workforce in the forthcoming 12 months.
