CUSTOMER WIN: Schuberg Philis Chooses BMC Software to Host Mission-Critical Business Applications

BMC Business Service Management platform allows top European outsourcer to dramatically reduce application roll out timetables for customers, backed by solid audit trails

AMSTERDAM, July 29, 2009 – Schuberg Philis, a leading European outsourcer, has selected BMC Software (NYSE: BMC) to help deliver mission-critical, uptime-guaranteed services to its customers.

“Adopting BMC Software’s Business Service Management (BSM) platform has slashed the time it takes to roll out mission-critical applications to our customers,” says Arjan Eriks, customer operations manager for Schuberg Philis. “We have significantly improved the time it takes to get new applications up and running. We can also satisfy customer security requirements by producing digital audits on the fly. These customer benefits are compelling and have made a tangible impact to our service offering.”

Operating in tightly-regulated markets, the Netherlands-based Schuberg Philis needed a management software provider that could meet all current governance and risk management requirements, offering on-demand audit trails without compromising on speed and flexibility.

Working with organizations that demand high availability and risk management, Schuberg Philis also required a solution that would cut the timeframe typically required to roll out new applications without compromising its guarantees of 100 percent availability and end-to-end, 24-7 responsibility.

Following the implementation of BMC’s industry-leading BSM platform, Schuberg Philis has demonstrated the following benefits:

  • A reduction of more than 50 percent in the time it takes for Schuberg Philis to roll out server patches to its customers’ environments;
  • The ability to capture new security-focused best practices using the BMC BladeLogic auditing template;
  • The capacity to generate automatic audits at regular intervals in line with contract-binding agreed practices;
  • The ability to meet risk management and compliance requirements, guaranteeing high availability without compromising on speed, complexity or security

“By investing in IT automation, organizations like Schuberg Philis see major productivity and compliance management benefits very quickly, making them far more agile and competitive. This is vital in today’s environment,” says Luca Lazzaron, BMC’s vice president and general manager for the EMEA region. “BMC solutions don’t just take the cost out of IT. We help businesses be more efficient and more strategic.”
