Dr. Tim O’Neill to Give Keynote Presentation at Ovum Industry Congress

Avolution, developer and supplier of software solutions for IT strategy, planning and enterprise modelling, today announced that one of the company's founders and principals, Dr. Tim O'Neill, will give a keynote presentation at the forthcoming Ovum Industry Congress in London on 14th - 15th May 2013.

London, United Kingdom, May 01, 2013 --(PR.com)-- The presentation, titled “Enabling an information-oriented enterprise,” will explore the role of enterprise modelling as an enabler for informed, strategic decision-making, and address several key issues organisations must resolve in order to thrive in today’s challenging economy.

Enabling an information-orientated enterprise
With organisations facing growing competitiveness, on-going financial pressures and constant and unpredictable change, reliable approaches must be found to manage these new operational conditions and to communicate their implications. Growing IT "consumerisation" within the enterprise, together with other forms of "disruptive technology," adds further challenges. Should such new trends act as catalysts for transformation, or should assessments first be made of when, where and how new technologies should be adopted, and their potential and actual outcomes be measured?

Establishing an information-enabled enterprise model based on technology, data, processes and people is the first step, providing a foundation from which future business decisions can be taken with predictive and quantitative certainty.

Avolution will also be exhibiting at the event, showcasing the latest release of its flagship product, ABACUS® 4.1, including its advanced Catalogues Management feature that enables simplified importing and exporting of MS Excel spreadsheets and MS SharePoint lists. The recently launched hosted HTML5-based service, ABACUS® Intelligence On-Demand™ will also be on show.

The Ovum Industry Congress takes place at the Victoria Park Plaza Hotel, 239 Vauxhall Bridge Road, London SW1V 1EQ. Contact http://www.ovumindustrycongress.com/register/ for more information or to register, quoting Avolution’s Priority Code I6SB6/AV for a complimentary ticket.
