BPM and EMC Come Together in Strategic Alliance
May 26, 2006: Logicalis and Silicon Plains have announced a strategic alliance to help customers align existing ICT systems and data with business processes and people. This will be achieved through the implementation of Business Process Management (BPM) and Enterprise Content Management (ECM) solutions.
BPM provider Logicalis has signed an alliance agreement with IBM Business Partner, Silicon Plains, to provide its customers in the insurance, banking and government sectors with an accelerated approach to greater business agility.
Silicon Plains will reportedly work with Logicalis' Application Integration Practice to adopt a new technique that enables a practical Service Orientated Architecture to be set up in months rather than years. This claims to result in productivity gains, increased customer services and competitive advantage improvements. The technique comprises of Silicon Plains DotSphere, industry specific process templates, IBM Content Manager and IBM WebSphere Process Server.
Steven Shepherd, solution sales manager at Logicalis Computing Solutions, says, “Market leading companies not only use IT for cost saving, they also exploit its potential to do things that their competition is unable to match. IT is a competitive weapon that can transform the profitability of a business by automating and simplifying core business processes. We have seen how this is being realized by large financial institutions using the DotSphere accelerator.”
Sunil Savara, chairman of Silicon Plains adds that his company and DotSphere will enable template processes to be quickly configured and field tested without the need for protracted IT development work.
