Business: CA Technologies is the world’s leading independent provider of IT management software with 13,000 employees operating in 45 countries across the globe. The company’s software makes it easier for organizations to manage and secure their mainframe, distributed, virtual and cloud IT environments resulting in greater productivity, innovation and growth.
Challenge: To deliver high-quality IT services, CA Technologies needed to regain control of its vast and complex IT estate. A decentralized approach to asset management had resulted in unnecessary investment in new hardware and software while existing assets went unused.
Solution: CA Technologies uses CA IT Asset Manager to track 90,000 assets from initial procurement through to disposal and redeployment. The solution supports global standardized asset management processes to simplify asset redeployment, compliance with software licenses and change management.
Result: CA Technologies has achieved a cost saving of $8 million in three years through greater control of its IT assets. The solution has also helped to improve budget forecasting, simplify support and enhance sustainability.
