HOUSTON, Aug. 25, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- BMC, the
global leader in IT solutions for the digital enterprise, today
revealed a comprehensive agenda for the third annual BMC Engage
conference, the largest gathering of BMC users, focused on
innovations for digital business, customer success stories, and an
exciting track and showcase for developers. BMC Engage 2016 will
take place September 6-9 at the Aria®
Resort and Casino in Las
Vegas.
"BMC Engage is where business leaders come together to discuss
their challenges, successes, and lessons learned from digital
transformation," said Robin Purohit,
group president, Enterprise Solutions Organization at BMC. "The
digital imperative is clear: go digital or go extinct. Gartner
predicted that 25 percent of businesses will have lost competitive
ranking due to digital incompetence by 2017. Our mission is to
equip our worldwide customers with the innovations and solutions
they need to start the digital transformation journey, stay on
course, and be successful in digital business."
BMC Engage features keynotes that address this urgent call to
action from both a digital business and digital innovation
perspective:
- Bob Beauchamp, BMC chairman and
CEO, will communicate his vision for digital business
- Robin Purohit, group president,
Enterprise Solutions Organization at BMC, will lead a general
session about the product innovation at BMC driving digital
transformation
- David Rowan, Wired UK
Editor-in-Chief, will outline "New Rules of Business: How
Technology is Changing the World"
- Sandra Ng, Group Vice President
at IDC, will define "Digital IT: From Productivity to
Profitability"
An astounding lineup of more than 80 BMC customers and partners
will also share key insights and lessons learned about how to fast
track digital business using BMC's end-to-end portfolio of Digital
Enterprise Management solutions. Last year at Engage 2015, BMC
introduced DEM, an integrated set of digital enterprise management
IT solutions designed to accelerate digital transformation and help
companies innovate faster.
At BMC Engage 2016, the company will outline key DEM initiatives
that companies should invest in, and customers will cover a broad
range of IT Innovation and digital business topics including:
- British Sky Broadcasting will discuss how it's using Workload
Automation to meet the expectations of both customers and its
employees

its service desk to empower both its customers and support
staff

the customer experience and driving operations efficiency with
far-reaching service management

application mapping using BMC Discovery
- The Los Angeles Department of Water and Power will present a
case study about how it identified the need for a private cloud to
enable a more highly-efficient IT request management
environment
- Cerner will offer a case study about how to implement client-
and service-oriented reporting and taking a business-aware approach
to capacity management
- Buchanan Technologies will provide a spotlight on Remedy Smart
Reporting, providing real-world best practices, access to the

BMC is making great strides in enabling digital innovation by
developers, with a track for Cloud and DevOps focused on supporting
next-generation digital services by removing obstacles to create a
reliable, agile infrastructure. In the new digital economy,
developers must be freed from mundane tasks and burdensome
processes to focus on innovation. This track covers advances in
cloud management and DevOps that help enterprises accelerate
innovation, control complexity, and simplify compliance.
BMC is also kicking off Engage 2016 with the BMC Innovator Bus
Ride, where 40 developers from across the world will ride and code
from Los Angeles to Las Vegas. While on the bus, they will get
exclusive sneak-peak preview and early access to BMC innovations
that will be shared at Engage. They will also get hands-on
experience building custom applications as well as the opportunity
to interact with BMC engineers and product managers. Upon arrival
at the Aria® Resort and Casino in Las
Vegas, they will have the opportunity to continue coding at
the Developer Lounge, part of the IT Innovation Zone featuring over
75 demonstrations and more than 100 BMC ecosystem partners and
sponsors. They will also have the opportunity to vote for their
favorite app while learning more about BMC's Developer Portal and
Developer Community.
Now in its third year, BMC Engage brings together thousands of
