L&T Infotech has entered into a strategic partnership with BMC Software for IT infrastructure management services.

BMC Software (BMC), headquartered in Houston, is a $2.2-billion company engaged in Business Service Management (BSM).

L&T Infotech and BMC aim to offer infrastructure management solutions such as datacentre automation, IT service management (ITSM) and cloud computing management to global clients.

L&T Infotech has already launched its shared services platform for IT infrastructure support by leveraging BMC’s suite of tools.

This platform is being extended to global clients to improve operational efficiencies.

L&T Infotech will leverage BSM to help clients monitor and automate business applications and have a complete view of business service performance and availability, including service levels, usage patterns, assets and costs in a proactive manner.

Mr Uday Gharpure, Head-Global Business Operations, L&T Infotech, said, “With the rapid evolution of IT in recent years, enterprise IT landscapes have become increasingly complex. With sprawling technology platforms, enterprises are facing challenges in maintaining correct visibility of operations. Our BMC partnership tries to address these challenges and is in line with our endeavour to provide added value to our clients.”

“With our secure and reliable BSM suite of solutions, we bring leading-edge technologies to all customers which significantly enhances their market competitiveness,” said Mr Andrew Jason, Vice-President, BMC Partner Network.

L&T Infotech said its infrastructure management services (IMS) business unit focuses on providing end-to-end services to global clients, aimed at improving the reliability, availability and efficiency of their infrastructure.

IMS already supports global clients in banking and financial services, insurance, energy and petrochemicals, besides manufacturing.
