BMC Remedy Asset Management

Part of the BMC Remedy IT Service Management Suite

BMC Asset Management enables IT to get control over the full lifecycle and total cost of IT assets — from purchase to retirement. Unlike other asset management solutions, BMC delivers a multi-tenant solution that seamlessly integrates into ITIL® service support workflows for change, incident, problem, and configuration management to deliver the operational context needed to reduce downtime and improve service quality.

Increasingly, IT is struggling to gain visibility and control over cost, compliance, and operational impact of assets. Environments are in constant flux. Virtualization, high asset turnover, mobility, acquisitions, reorganizations, and employee turnover — not to mention complexity and frequent changes to the distributed infrastructure — all conspire to drive up asset and support costs by 30 percent or more, while also impacting service quality. Stand-alone approaches to IT asset management often fall short on this challenge because they poorly integrate with the processes necessary to deliver the operational context, accuracy, and accessibility of asset information. BMC has the solution.

BMC Asset Management helps you drive down IT costs, while also improving service quality and compliance. As part of the BMC Remedy IT Service Management Suite, it natively integrates with IT Infrastructure Library® (ITIL) workflows to empower you with more proactive control and greater visibility into your IT assets — from requisition to retirement.
