The BMC MSM product range includes system management and automation products such as the CONTROL suite, Data Management tools for IMS and DB2, and systems monitoring tools such as MAINVIEW.

Blue Turtle's sound project management, highly experienced engineers, product managers and consulting services team have combined experience in excess of 25 years in BMC Control-M architectural design, professional services and support. Furthermore, Blue Turtle has certified trainers that regularly provide customised services training.

Its leadership in the mainframe arena is further supported by its global implementations in countries such as Middle East, Africa and the United Kingdom.

Gray Farrell comments: “We are the trusted adviser to the largest BMC Control-M customer in the country, where we provide design, implementation, training, consulting and support services. Control-M is the only leader recognised in the top right Gartner magic quadrant in workflow automation.
