Present in Germany, France, Spain, Luxembourg, India, and Singapore, BNP Paribas Personal Investors has deployed CA Clarity PPM which supports data delivery to the financial firm's accounting systems.

Thanks to CA Clarity PPM, IT teams are able to manage and prioritise requests, based on BNP Paribas Personal Investors' overall enterprise strategy. This also helps ensure the timely, on-budget delivery of products and services. Before a project is approved, the Portfolio Manager and other decision-makers determine its relevance, based on factors such as ROI and strategic value. The Project Office then uses the CA Technologies solution to validate resource availability, based on a capacity plan. Once a project is approved, the Project Manager gathers a team and allocates tasks based on available resources.

"By introducing reliable project monitoring metrics and indicators, the CA Clarity PPM solution has significantly improved IT transparency," says Benjamin Mourrat, IT Corporate Portfolio Manager, BNP Paribas Personal Investors.

In 2010, the solution was implemented within Geojit Technologies (P) Ltd, a subsidiary of Geojit BNP Paribas - a brokerage company headquartered in India. Geojit Technologies employs 109 staff, for business in India, the Persian Gulf and more globally Europe and Asia.
