Generali France Improves Competitive Advantage by Keeping Projects on Track With CA Clarity PPM
PARIS, June 4 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Generali France, France's second largest general insurance company, has selected CA's (NASDAQ: CA) Clarity(TM) Project and Portfolio Management (PPM) as its single project management solution to deliver major IT transformation projects and to increase business agility and competitive advantage.
In early 2007, Generali France was growing much faster than its rivals. To maintain that competitive advantage, it made the strategic decision to create a single entity from the numerous insurance companies it had acquired.
This business-wide transformation, which includes the implementation of centralized tools and systems across the company, involved simultaneous changes at every level of the IT system environment. The scale of these changes made it necessary to implement a cross-functional approach to project and risk management and replace the numerous project management tools being used in the different entities.
To achieve this, Generali decided to centralise its global project management onto one single platform. After an extensive assessment of PPM solutions on the market, Generali selected CA Clarity PPM solution.
