BURLINGTON, Mass., March 8, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Attunity Ltd. (OTC Bulletin Board: ATTUF), a leading provider of real-time data integration and event capture software, announced today that TMG Construction, a design-build and general contracting services corporation based in Virginia, USA, has implemented Attunity's real-time event data capture (EDC) software to deliver information necessary to track operational metrics and produce reports required to improve business efficiency and meet corporate margin objectives.

"From a top-level perspective to daily operations, we needed a full picture of our business' performance, which would help us track our target margin, as well as gauge the work-in-progress schedule, analyze sales stats, earned revenue, and backlog," explained Chris Worth, Director of Business Information Systems and a member of TMG's executive management committee. "To meet these requirements, metrics need to be calculated as soon as data changes in our key business systems, making real-time information available in our data warehouse so it can be presented in dashboards and reports. By implementing Attunity Stream, we were able to deliver the real-time information needed quickly and with significant cost savings. This information is now used by our senior managers, the accounting team and project managers to improve productivity and internal responsiveness during the planning and active stages of a construction job, and it also enables us to be more efficient from a time, resources and cost perspective."

The biggest barrier facing the IT organization at TMG was their existing accounting software, which made it impossible to extract fresh data and integrate it with other business information in a timely and efficient manner. As a result, extracting information was done manually, which was very time consuming and involved many man hours. To remove this barrier, TMG implemented Attunity Stream's EDC software to capture data changes made in their enterprise database and deliver change events in real-time into a Java Messaging System (JMS). This enabled TMG to benefit from existing infrastructure and expertise to quickly put together a solution with significant cost savings.

"TMG is a great example of a company that harnesses information technology to achieve competitive advantage, and it is impressive to see how quickly they were able to do so by leveraging Attunity Stream," said Mel Passarelli, Vice President and General Manager for North America at Attunity. "We are confident that TMG will continue to reap the business benefits of real-time information and look forward to continuing to work with them and other companies with similar objectives and challenges."
