Accenture and BMC Software have expanded their long-standing relationship with two technology agreements, one for the joint development and implementation of BMC Business Service Management (BSM) solutions and another for the provision of consulting and integration services to BMC’s Professional Services organization.
Under the first agreement, the two companies will jointly develop, market and implement packaged and custom BSM solutions. BSM provides businesses with a single, integrated IT automation and management platform. Adopting this platform approach enables customers to extract maximum return on their IT investments, while also leveraging key new technologies such as virtualization, cloud computing and software-as-a-service (SaaS).
Accenture and BMC will focus initially on an integrated IT service management solution (ITSM) based on BMC Atrium Configuration Management Database, BMC Remedy IT Service Management Suite and Accenture technology consulting services. The combined offerings will provide companies with an integrated IT automation and management platform that allows them to see how their IT systems are performing while also allowing them to lower their costs and accelerate business growth.
Under the second agreement, BMC will leverage Accenture technology professionals to increase the capacity of its delivery and implementation capabilities with a dedicated Accenture team providing consulting and integration services to BMC’s Professional Services organization. The new team will help implement business service management solutions for BMC and its clients.
