BMC CONTROL-M/Forecast

Mission critical business services are dynamic, facing many changes in high frequency. IT operations face a challenge, trying to adjust IT components to meet these dynamic business needs - improving efficiency, meeting service levels & reducing costs. Predicting in advance the behaviour of batch services as a result of a business change or planned outage is critical when trying to deal with this challenge.

BMC CONTROL-M/Forecast is an extension to the CONTROL-M scheduling suite that provides prediction of batch processes expected flow - allowing deep analysis avoiding negative business results. By analysing the expected future behavior of the batch environment at the enterprise level, you can identify in advance any unexpected or problematic batch process. Using CONTROL-M/Forecast, batch service planning inaccuracies can be identified, analysed and resolved well in advance.
