Blue Turtle Technologies selects Managed Objects as BSM solution provider

Johannesburg, 06 Apr 2005

Blue Turtle Technologies, a leading solutions provider specialising in IT infrastructure management, has signed an agreement with Managed Objects, the business service management company, to resell its business service management (BSM) solution in SA. This partnership enhances Managed Objects` international channel sales.

Blue Turtle Technologies brings best-in-class software products from premier global vendors to the South African market covering service, system and security management. The company selected Managed Objects and its BSM solution after an extensive and stringent review of competitive BSM products.

"As the leading provider of BSM, Managed Objects is a major influence in the shaping of the industry and leading innovation for IT infrastructure management," said Martyn Healy, managing director of Blue Turtle Technologies. "All in all, Managed Objects has the leadership, financial stability and technological superiority we look for in software partners - the functionality is outstanding allowing us to deliver a BSM solution that will leverage the existing investments our customers have made in systems network management tools. We`re pleased and excited to be working with Managed Objects."

As technological infrastructure has grown in both size and complexity, many global businesses struggle to measure impact, monitor status and manage change effectively. Managed Objects` BSM solution simplifies this process, enabling large global organisations to view their entire infrastructure - not merely as components - but as a business services. This concept has revolutionised the control IT managers exert on technology and enhance the value organisations can derive from existing infrastructure.

"It`s clear to us that the explosive growth in IT infrastructure is occurring both domestically and internationally. Subsequently the demand for tools to manage that infrastructure, like BSM software, has grown in parallel," said Siki Giunta, CEO of Managed Objects. "To that end, partnerships are a key component of Managed Objects` global strategy - one that has worked exceptionally well for us - and we are proud Blue Turtle Technologies has selected our solution for the emerging market in SA."
