strongHOUSTON, February 11, 2009/strong– BMC Software (NYSE: BMC) today announced the availability of an important customer video detailing British Telecom’s successful implementation of BMC CONTROL-M enterprise job scheduling software./font

/p

pBMC CONTROL-M was selected by British Telecom to help address the challenge of getting business-critical reports through its system on time. For example, it was particularly important – indeed, imperative -- that BT Finance be able to send its reports to the stock market on time./p

p“I’ve been told by (BT Finance) that if that report does not get to the stock market on time, we could lose one million pounds a second, said Jarlath Garvey, scheduling manager for British Telecom. “We can’t do it without CONTROL-M.”/p

pBritish Telecom, originally a public utility that supplied telephone services to millions of UK citizens, now operates in more than 170 countries.  It is one of the world’s leading providers of communications solutions and services, including networked IT services, local, national and international telecommunications services, and higher-value broadband and internet products and services./p
