HOUSE RESOLUTION NO. 559 

Commending Appian Corporation. 

Agreed to by the House of Delegates, August 28, 2020 

WHEREAS, Appian Corporation, a software company based in 
McLean, was named one of the top places to work by The Washington Post 
in 2020; and

WHEREAS, Appian, which provides a software platform on which 
new computer applications can be rapidly developed, had a top-performing 
initial public offering in 2017; and

WHEREAS, Appian�s software service has proved pivotal during 
the COVID-19 pandemic as companies work quickly to respond to the unfolding 
public health crisis; and

WHEREAS, Appian�s COVID-19 Response Management program, an 
application that tracks the health of employees, was distributed at no charge 
to more than 500 companies, greatly improving their ability to be proactive 
against the threat of the pandemic; and

WHEREAS, Appian developed Appian Workforce Safety and Appian 
CampusPass, applications that advise large enterprises and academic 
institutions as they work to safely bring their employees or academic 
communities back on site; and

WHEREAS, by centralizing and automating COVID-19 data 
collection and processing, health status validations, isolation protocols, and 
testing while maintaining high standards for the privacy and security of 
personal health information, Appian provides services that greatly improve the 
Commonwealth�s and nation�s ability to mitigate the COVID-19 pandemic; and

WHEREAS, many large organizations have depended upon Appian�s 
technology to navigate the COVID-19 pandemic, including a leading health care 
provider, a top sportswear manufacturer, an elite educational institution, and the 
British National Health Service; and

WHEREAS, through its relentless drive to innovate and 
unmatched dedication to its employees, Appian embodies the best of what makes 
the Commonwealth a wonderful place to live, work, and raise a family; now, 
therefore, be it

RESOLVED by the House of Delegates, That Appian Corporation 
hereby be commended for the honor of being named by The Washington Post 
as one of the top places to work in the Washington, D.C., metropolitan area; 
and, be it

RESOLVED FURTHER, That the Clerk of the House of Delegates 
prepare a copy of this resolution for presentation to Matthew Calkins,

of the House of Delegates� admiration for the company�s accomplishments and 
best wishes for its continued success.
