OpenMetrik Announces GRIP ‘one-process’ SaaS / On Demand Offering for Total IT Governance & R&D Commercialization
Release gives major relief from traditional PPM, APM, Demand, Resource Management solutions. As a CIO, this could be VERY timely – your practical move to reducing your licensing and operational costs. And your best opportunity to create a true, Lean IT Enterprise.
GRIP is now available as a SaaS On Demand offering in three simple process domains:
- GRIP Enterprise Portfolio Governance Process: (combining Demand, Resource/Capacity and Portfolio Due Diligence)
- GRIP Execution Pipeline Management Process: (combining traditional PPM, Program Management Framework and Project Planning Engine)
- GRIP Service Operational Excellence Process: (combining Application Portfolio, Architecture Management and Legacy Decommissioning)
“By combining the traditional IT functional silos into the above three layers, CIOs get huge benefit in terms of process unification – besides drastically cutting down operational overheads. This is a breakthrough and first-of-its-kind in IT Governance,” said
“Many CIOs would agree that the term IT Governance has only been a lip-service. The reality is, implementing total IT Governance took many painful person-years, with excessive customization and integration of software pieces, even if you bought them from the same vendor. For many CIOs, getting a consistent one-process flow for IT Governance has not been easy,” Chandra added.
Initially, preference is given to Customers who have licensed Big Vendor PPM, APM systems and other disjointed software pieces and suffering huge licensing and operational costs. For Customers who need immediate relief from ineffective PPM, APM implementations ASAP. You do not have to put that off any longer.
Competitive, conventional licensing from Big PPM, APM vendors have complex pricing plans and long-drawn partial implementations. “We are excited to be the first to offer SaaS /Cloud offering within IT Governance market space. This is an unbeatable combo deal from many perspectives. Imagine the process unification, consistent business process, build-your-own workflow, real-time BI and Metrics visibility – all for the first time as SaaS On Demand offering. Our prime objective is to pass our cost savings onto our Customers,” said
Customers who need ready interfaces to SAP / Oracle and other ERP, which are running within their firewall are encouraged to contact OpenMetrik. GRIP comes with adapters that offer instant interoperability using Java/JMS/DB connectors. GRIP SaaS plans include all the features and configure-on-your-own capabilities of GRIP 2.0 released last year at MIT Emerging Technologies Conference. GRIP comes with automatic software upgrades up to four times a year and various levels of customer support – very aggressive for products in IT Governance market space.
