CA reveals PPM solution

CFO World.

By integrating the CA PPM solution with Salesforce Chatter, the private enterprise social network, CA Technologies is responding to the radically different way companies are now communicating and collaborating using social technologies.

An organisation's business success hinges on its ability to innovate and execute to develop product and services that are better than the competition.

Managing the innovation lifecycle - from ideation to execution - is critical, and as business adopts new ways to collaborate and foster innovation, managing that communication becomes equally important.

According to PR Newswire, the CA PPM solution gives IT leaders and business executives the traceability, workflow, reporting, and now collaboration required to help drive business innovation and speed business change.

“As organisations blend Agile and traditional development to meet competitive demands, it's imperative that teams collaborate and share ideas, requirements and status updates in a meaningful forum,” says Brian Bell, GM, service and portfolio management, CA Technologies. “Integrating Chatter with our PPM solution helps manage collaboration across the innovation lifecycle.”

The CA PPM solution includes capabilities from CA Clarity PPM (delivered on-demand or on-premise) and CA Technologies PPM-related cloud applications, CA Idea Vision and the 2011 releases of CA Agile Vision and CA Product Vision.
