United Kingdom - May 7, 2008 - Troux Technologies today announced that a U.S.-based manufacturer has chosen its Strategic IT Planning software as the engine for driving its business planning initiatives. The deal, which increases the company’s Troux investment to more than $2 million US, once again highlights the important strategic IT planning trends currently taking shape among the Global 2000.  This business, along with 40 other Troux wins in Q1 alone, emphasises the focus on increasing IT economies of scale, increasing the speed and accuracy of planning cycles, and minimising the risks associated with business and IT transformation initiatives. Troux claims to deliver this with software that unlocks the power of Enterprise Architecture (EA).
An industry analyst firm recently outlined the changing role of EA throughout the global business community. The theme of their research findings is that EA program expectations among key stake holders is maturing, to reflect less concern with technology questions and more concern with business process and information provisioning. The orientation of Strategic IT planning has shifted to providing the information needed to drive the business decision-making process. "The challenges facing global organisations from both the current economic climate and the rising tide of competition is forcing core business decision makers to ask where they can find actionable information," said Matt Price, vice president of worldwide marketing for Troux. "Decision makers need to look deeply into their systems to grasp the true state of the complex interdependencies of their operations. We are the company that can take them past Enterprise Architecture to Strategic IT Planning," Price said.
