Leading IT Service Management (ITSM) Provider Partners with mValent to Leverage mValent Integrity(TM) and its Nexio NUCLEUS Service Offering to Deliver Solutions for Best Practices in Application Configuration and Compliance Management
BURLINGTON, Mass., May 8 /PRNewswire/ -- mValent, the leading provider of automated IT configuration management solutions for managing application infrastructure, today announced a partnership with Nexio Technologies Inc. that expands mValent's distribution channel in North America. Headquartered in Montreal, Canada, Nexio is partnering with mValent to help customers achieve IT Infrastructure Library (ITIL)-compliant service management objectives for mission-critical business applications.
"Our enterprise clients are looking to reduce IT operational costs in an effort to augment ever-decreasing capital expenditures for new business initiatives," said Martial Rivard, President of Nexio Technologies. "mValent's best-of-breed solution significantly strengthens our current ITSM and IBM WebSphere-related service offerings, and addresses our clients' growing requirements for more efficient management of their IT infrastructure."
Nexio will resell mValent's Integrity software to its established customer base across the government, healthcare, financial services, telecom and utilities sectors. This partnership enables Nexio to leverage mValent Integrity to deliver automated solutions for application configuration, change and release management to customers within its ITSM and WebSphere deployment practices. Nexio's ITSM practice is focused on delivering assessments, training, implementation services and platform/technology integrations to help customers achieve maximum value from their service management initiatives. Nexio's WebSphere deployment practice provides customers with architecture recommendations, planning and change management services to enable more efficient and automated deployments of IBM WebSphere-based applications throughout their enterprises.
In 2004, Nexio was instrumental in enabling customer Domtar, the third largest producer of paper in North America, to win the "ITIL Project of the Year" award at the 2005 ITSM Conference organized by a world-leading organization in the IT Service Management industry. Using Nexio's project team, methodology and NUCLEUS service, Domtar deployed 21 ITIL processes within 12 months, a feat never before achieved in the history of ITIL, and became the first manufacturing company in North America to receive BS 15000 (ISO 20000) certification. In doing so, Nexio proved that organizations do not have to spend years and millions of dollars to achieve sustained, repeatable and economical IT service excellence and quality. NUCLEUS is part of CANEXION, a best practices library developed by Nexio and CA (NYSE:CA) that provides ITIL processes and implementation procedures mapped to CA Service Management products.
"Nexio has a tremendous reputation for helping enterprises solve problems which limit the efficiency and effectiveness of their IT organization," said Swapnil Shah, Founder and SVP of Strategy for mValent. "Nexio's deep experience and capabilities in improving IT service delivery based on ITIL best practices combined with mValent's configuration automation software brings unprecedented levels of productivity and efficiency for enterprise IT teams responsible for supporting mission-critical business applications."
mValent Integrity provides IT Infrastructure teams with an automated, repeatable, process-driven "gold master" approach to application infrastructure configuration management that enables smooth delivery and support of business applications. The software delivers powerful features for configuration, change and release management as well as audit and compliance initiatives. The result is improved application uptime, fewer IT fire drills, and simplified compliance with industry best practices and regulatory mandates.
