CUSTOMER WIN: Synopsys Selects BMC Software for Greater Control and Visibility into IT Service Costs
HOUSTON, June 2, 2010 – Synopsys, a leading provider of software and IP for semiconductor design, has selected BMC Software’s (NASDAQ: BMC) Service Cost Management software to gain greater visibility and understanding of information technology service costs and operations.
As part of its Business Service Management (BSM) platform, Synopsys’ IT Department is implementing SCM to reduce costs and eliminate expensive, low-value services. In the process, the company expects to gain a clearer picture of its IT spend.
“During the past three years we have clearly demonstrated an increase in the percent of resources allocated to innovative and strategic initiatives. With a deeper understanding of the detailed costs of delivering IT services, we can significantly improve communications regarding IT and business goals and prove the value of IT,” said Debra Martucci, Synopsys CIO and vice president of information technology. “The increased visibility also gives us the financial transparency needed to allocate resources effectively on IT programs and change priorities based on business needs.”
The BMC Service Cost Management software offers a bottom-up, top-down or blended approach to collecting cost and utilization data from a variety of heterogeneous data sources and compares the costs against industry benchmarks. The benchmarks are based on data from 8,000 companies in 23 industries around the world. BMC Service Cost Management also includes out-of-the box cost model templates to help define cost drivers.
