The reason for this is we have one primary company office but there are two

answer the phone for the Denver organization rather than for the Colorado
Springs number which is a different entity. A lot of times people are
rushing to answer the phone and do not look at the callerID this would
give them and auditory reminder of how they need to answer the phone.
But that is not what you asked the first time around.
Well, not exactly.
He asked how to change the ring TONE
If you want to change the ringing tone *at the far end*
More properly called ringBACK for those who are knowledgeable in telephony.
depending on who is
calling, that's different. That is just ordinary "distinctive ringing", and
Asterisk most certainly supports it (in fact, even analogue phones on an FXS
card can be given different ringing envelopes; the usual "ring-ring", the
French-style "riiiiiiiiiiiiiing", or even a "ring-ring-ring").
But, does Asterisk support "distinctive ringing" on SIP phones? Isn't that
governed within the SIP phone itself
Let's not confuse different ringing patterns on analog circuits with SIP.

Your Asterisk at the far end just has to be able to pick up on the caller ID
so it knows where the call is coming from, and execute a SipAddHeader()
statement to set the appropriate ringing tone.
How would I go about setting up telling the phone to change the ring tone
in the SIP header?
Read the documentation for your phones. For Digium D40s, look here:
