PR Newswire -- July 28, 2010
ISLANDIA, N.Y., July 28 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- CA Technologies (Nasdaq: CA) today announced the availability of CA Portfolio Management for Agile IT, a new Agile Project and Portfolio Management (PPM) cloud solution designed to help executives make effective portfolio management decisions and capitalize on more rapid innovation using new Agile planning practices. The new solution, comprised of CA Clarity On Demand and CA Agile Vision, combines the latest version of the industry leading PPM application, with new capabilities for Agile planning in a cloud computing delivery model.
With the growth of cloud computing, consumers of cloud services are demanding rapid delivery and fast response to requests for enhancements and new services. In response, organizations are adopting more agile and iterative approaches to IT service delivery that strain existing project governance processes, and force the convergence of requirements management, agile planning and service portfolio management. The adoption of Agile methodologies will continue to pick up over the next several years. Gartner reports that "by 2012, agile development methods will be utilized in 80% of all software development projects."*
"Delivery of technology-based products is shifting more and more toward iterative, rather than waterfall-based projects. As a result, PPM solutions must help organizations address the needs of agile teams and those responsible for project governance," said Dan Stang, principal research analyst at Gartner.
