Computas and inaxess Provide Metis Enterprise Architecture
inaxess delivers Metis-based EA solutions to Swiss firms in key vertical markets.
Seattle, WA & Oslo, Norway (PRWEB) November 2, 2004 -- Computas today announced it has
signed a value-added reseller (VAR) agreement with inaxess integration of
Kloten, Switzerland, which will significantly extend both companies’ presence in
the Swiss marketplace for Enterprise Architecture (EA) solutions. Under the
agreement, inaxess integration will utilize Computas’ Metis® Enterprise visual modeling toolset to provide EA
solutions to leading Swiss companies in the financial services,
telecommunications, energy, chemical and pharmaceutical
industries.
According to Michael A. Schmidle, CEO of inaxess integration,
the Metis software will play a key role in the company’s strategy of leveraging
Enterprise Architecture technology in its IT integration business. “Creating an
Enterprise Architecture model is a fundamental part of the preparation phase of
an integration project. That’s why Metis is so important to us,” Schmidle said.
“A Metis-based EA makes the complex infrastructure of a customer’s IT
organization ‘transparent’ by providing clear graphical model views of all of
their systems, applications and interfaces. This capability is invaluable for
defining a customer’s IT portfolio, which is an essential step for the
success of any engagement we undertake.”
“inaxess integration’s choice of
Metis as their preferred EA modeling tool enables them to harness the power of a
visual EA model to identify gaps and overlaps in IT functionality, making it
much easier to create an optimized infrastructure,” said Emilio G. Marisei,
Computas’ Director of Marketing and Sales Channels. “Metis gives inaxess
integration a powerful tool for risk reduction in their portfolio management
efforts, by helping to ensure that a customer’s IT infrastructure and business
processes are fully aligned.”
