BDNA Customer to Share Insight on Building a First-Class IT Asset Management Program for the Department of the Navy; Acknowledged IT Asset Management Expert Presents at InformationWeek Vendor Perspective TechWebCast.

MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif. -- BDNA Corporation, an innovator in asset management solutions for IT and finance, today announced that CAPT Chris Christopher, USNR, of the U.S. Navy's Program Executive Office for Information Technology, is scheduled to present a seminar on "Enterprise IT Asset Management for the Department of the Navy." The discussion will focus on the scope of the issue, including the technical and political challenges the U.S. Navy encountered in its quest for global IT asset visibility. The InformationWeek Vendor Perspective TechWebCast is scheduled for Dec. 13 at 9 - 10 a.m. PT.

"Like most organizations, the Department of the Navy historically did not centrally manage IT assets until realizing that a major transformation in IT asset management practices was required to support new global issues," said CAPT Christopher. "But with a $6 billion annual IT budget and more than 400,000 assets deployed all over the world, the challenge was daunting. Using a combination of technology, best practices, and leadership, we implemented a successful asset management project and have built a roadmap for further asset management initiatives including the legacy system reductions, adherence to strict Department of Defense security policies, server consolidation and vendor renegotiation."
