DONE DEAL
(June 19, 2007)

Recent alliances, acquisitions and implementations in the world of project and portfolio management.

Planview has announced a strategic relationship with BMC Software to offer joint solutions that integrate the Planview Enterprise portfolio management application suite with BMC’s Business Service Management (BSM) solutions. The integrated solutions will be sold by BMC Software’s global sales force and reseller channels under the BMC Software MarketZone program.

By automating project and portfolio management within a business service management architecture, Planview and BMC executives say IT executives will gain consolidated management of business demand and IT activity for the creation, enhancement, delivery and support of business services. “Demand on IT organizations continues to grow at a dramatic rate. This increasing demand manifests in the form of initiatives and projects in IT organizations, and as incidents, changes, assets and service requests in operations and support organizations,” said Patrick Tickle, CMO of Planview. “The integration of Planview’s strengths in demand, resource and financial management with the BMC’s Business Service Management strengths in ITIL service management and IT operations has the potential to provide IT organizations with unparalleled breadth for managing IT from the perspective of the business.”

The integrated software solutions will use business service priorities to govern investment, prioritization and coordination of IT staff and assets across application development, service support and datacenter operations.
