ML Consulting, a leading Bahrain-based IT consultancy and distribution firm, has signed a master distribution agreement with UC4 Software to resell “UC4:global”, a state-of-the-art solution for enterprise job scheduling and event automation, in the Middle East, North and South Africa. ML Consulting will showcase “UC4:global” at GITEX Dubai 2005, the leading IT exhibition in the region.
As part of the agreement, ML Consulting will distribute and support the full range of UC4 Software products. The agreement extends ML Consulting's product offerings in the systems management space to meet the growing customer requirements centered around process-based management issues. ML Consulting is the regional value-added distributor for a number of leading technical solutions for the enterprise environment.
"ML Consulting is pleased to partner with UC4 Software to resell “UC4:global”. We believe there is a difference between job scheduling and enterprise job scheduling. For businesses to derive maximum benefit from job scheduling, it is essential that the entire enterprise be taken into account, which is precisely what UC4:global does," said Karim Saba, Managing Director of ML Consulting.
"With our vast experience and considerable industry expertise, ML Consulting is uniquely positioned to support UC4 Software achieve its regional business goals. In addition to reselling “UC4:global”, we will also provide consultancy services, solution delivery, implementation, training and technical support for the enterprise job scheduling solution," Saba added.
Manfred Zeilinger, Vice President, Indirect Sales, UC4 Software, said, "We believe Middle East and Africa as a highly promising market with strong potential for growth in the IT industry, as many companies in the region have yet to employ standardized products for automating their IT resources. There are already tangible indications of a surge in demand for solutions like “UC4:global”, which offers calendar- and event-driven job scheduling, besides a host of other critical capabilities for the enterprise. The partnership with ML Consulting will allow us to widen our business scope and to more efficiently serve enterprises in the Middle East, North and South Africa."
“UC4:global” manages IT processes across all applications and infrastructure platforms, and features a unique architecture that allows for enterprise scalability and uninterrupted operations without third-party products, while maintaining a competitive edge by offering premium quality solutions and services.
