Defence Threat Reduction Agency selects Spescom Software

The United States Defence Threat Reduction Agency (DTRA) has selected the eB product from Spescom's US operation Spescom Software Inc.

The solution will be deployed to assist in the management and configuration of the agency's IT infrastructure and all related technical specifications, requirements and organisations associated with it.

The requirement is to support the configuration of the structured data, such as the hardware and to manage associated content, persons, locations, applications and projects in context of the IT infrastructure. Spescom's four-star configuration management certification from the Institute of Configuration Management validates the full features of the eB product.

"The selection of Spescom eB by the DTRA demonstrates the richness and breadth of the eB product. We are seeing increased interest and demand worldwide for a comprehensive configuration management solution to complement other tools traditionally used within IT organisations," said Alan Kiraly, CEO Spescom Software.

"We are excited to have DTRA as a new customer and look forward to assisting in maximising their investment as the first of potentially many solutions for the Department of Defence."
