BMC Helix Portfolio Provides DoD Customers with SaaS-Based IT ServiceOps

HOUSTON, June 4, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- BMC, a global leader in software solutions for the Autonomous Digital Enterprise, today announced that its BMC Helix operations management portfolio has received provisional authorization for Impact Level 5 (IL-5) from the Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA).

The BMC Helix solution enables U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) customers to accelerate their move to the cloud with comprehensive IT operations management to streamline workflows, automate tasks, and improve operational efficiencies. By achieving DISA IL-5 authorization, the BMC Helix portfolio delivered by Amazon Web Services (AWS) GovCloud meets DoD security requirements for Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) and unclassified National Security Systems (NSS) information.

This IL-5 authorization brings the BMC Helix solution's SaaS-based operations management capabilities to DoD customers, giving them the ability to:

Get greater observability into complex services running on hybrid cloud
Combine third-party observability data such as metrics, events, logs, incidents, changes, and topologies into a central IT data store
See service health and enable best-in-class root cause isolation via auto-generated dynamic business service models
Reduce and manage alerts to find problems faster using AI to suppress, deduplicate, and correlate events
Gain immediate root cause isolation and recommended remediation actions

DoD customers requiring IL-5 authorization now have access to the BMC Helix suite of service and operations management (ServiceOps) capabilities, enabling them to:

Reduce response time with real-time auto correlation of incidents and proactive problem identification
Integrate service and operations management for major incident management and other ServiceOps use cases
Eliminate manual effort with auto-task bundling and case assignment
Visualize key metrics and service activity in personalized, customizable, dynamic dashboards

"BMC has listened to the voice of the customer and has implemented enhancements in this release which will increase our ability to deliver efficient and innovative services to our end users through streamlining tasks and increasing automation," said Stephanie Wood, senior program manager, GDIT. "As a strategic BMC partner, this authorization enables increased capabilities, better analysis, and faster resolution of DoD's core challenges – all within a secure cloud environment."
