BMC IS&T: Striving to Be the First and Best Customer of BMC Software

Overview Like its counterparts in other enterprises, BMC Software's IS&T department is travelling down the path toward IT service maturity. The department faces the same challenges in making that journey as other IT organizations: implementing a framework that facilitates cooperation between IT and business managers, breaking down functional and technological silos, transitioning from a proactive to service mode, and complying with government mandates and corporate policies. IS&T has a unique advantage in making this journey. BMC Software is the recognized leader in solutions that help enterprises advance their BSM strategies. BSM solutions from BMC speed the adoption of COBIT (Control Objectives for Information and related Technology) and ITIL (IT Infrastructure Library), proven frameworks that simplify regulatory compliance, reduce business risk, and cut IT costs.
