Revelation Software Concepts, IntelliCorp Complete LiveCompare, Rev-Trac Integration

ORLANDO, Fla., May 17 /PRNewswire/ -- Revelation Software Concepts Pty Ltd (RSC), an SAP® software partner, today announced the successful integration of IntelliCorp® LiveCompare™, an intelligent impact analysis solution in support of SAP solutions, with RSC Rev-Trac®, the market-leading third-party change management solution for SAP solution-based systems.  The integration enables more efficient management of change as systems evolve, becoming larger and more complex as IT teams integrate non-ABAP™ components such as Java applications and Internet portals into systems.

As complexity grows, the impacts of unexpected change effects add to the challenges of managing change. Disruptions can increase as business needs drive increases in system complexity.  Rev-Trac automates and enforces the tracking of change transports against the business issues they address; tightening system control while simplifying and improving governance, reducing change-related delays and system disruptions, and minimizing the associated costs of both.  

Integrating impact analysis with change control enables users of SAP software to accurately assess, in advance, the effects throughout their information systems of all proposed changes, no matter how small. Changes to one component no longer affect other components in unanticipated ways, so components can safely become more interconnected to further increase system efficiency. IT teams can clarify and identify potential impacts on all affected modules and transactions, eliminating accidental disruptions.

"Enterprises running SAP applications today are going out of their way to minimize their planned downtime," noted Derek Prior, research director with Gartner.  "At the same time they need the right impact analysis tools to optimize their SAP change management processes so that they can both enhance their SAP applications with greater agility, plus avoid that downtime."

The LiveCompare-Rev-Trac integration greatly simplifies management of changes to these complex systems and improves system stability.  Both Rev-Trac and LiveCompare have earned the maximum five-star rating from users of the SAP EcoHub solution marketplace (http://www.sap.com/ecosystem/customers/ecohub/index.epx), where customers go to discover, evaluate and purchase partner solutions.  

"Combining Rev-Trac change control with IntelliCorp's LiveCompare intelligent impact analysis software is very powerful," said Christopher Trueman, CTO of IntelliCorp. "Customers benefit from enhanced automation and management of crucial IT processes, improving ALM while reducing TCO, saving time, money and resources as they maximize the value of their investments in SAP software."  

David Drake, CEO and CTO of RSC, adds, "Rev-Trac and LiveCompare leverage each other's strengths and amplify the benefits of each. These benefits increase as systems evolve, mixing ABAP with Java-based or other non-ABAP components, or adding new landscapes. The combined technologies deal effectively with issues that naturally arise in mixed-stack, mutli-platform, and multiple landscape configurations."

RSC's Rev-Trac is the market-leading third-party change control solution for enterprise-grade SAP solution-based infrastructures. Customers using IntelliCorp's ALM and impact analysis solutions comprise 35 percent of Fortune 500 companies that run on SAP solutions. Both Rev-Trac and LiveCompare have been certified individually by SAP as ABAP add-ons, and both products support the Enhanced Change and Transport System (CTS+) of the SAP NetWeaver® Application Server (SAP NetWeaver AS) in single or mixed-stack, single or multiple-landscape environments.
