Gallium, an EOH company and certified HP platinum partner, has been named a 2008 EMEA HP BTO Software Partner of the Year, an accolade the company also took in 2007. The awards recognise partners in Europe, the Middle East and Africa who have made outstanding contributions to HP's Software business group, especially in the area of Business Technology Optimisation (BTO).
Its ecosystem of successful and committed partners is central to HP's success in offering customers a winning proposition on price, value and time to market. The awards credit partners who have added value to HP by helping the company enter strategic new markets, supporting HP's efforts to drive new customer wins and implementing these, achieving major project breakthroughs, or jointly developing innovative solutions to meet individual customer needs and helping grow revenue.
Gallium specialises in performance management, quality and security testing, and is able to deliver integrated IT management capabilities that span project and portfolio management, application lifecycle management and IT service management through HP's powerful portfolio of BTO software. Managing Director Haydn Pinnell says the company is honoured to have been named among the region's top HP partners.
“CIOs often have difficulty tracking investments to demonstrate business value due to ill-defined checks and balances and unclear results, putting IT organisations in a vulnerable position. HP's BTO products position us well to offer an integrated IT management solution which delivers credibility and competency, both of which are key to demonstrating value to a business.”
Pinnell explains that BTO helps you make sure that every cent invested in IT, every resource allocated and every application in development or production meets your business goals. It is an approach to IT management that reduces costs and produces business outcomes by helping IT leaders allocate spend and resources based on business priorities, automate key processes across IT strategy, applications and operations, and measure IT effectiveness and efficiency from a business perspective.
