LONDON and DARMSTADT, Germany, July 15 /PRNewswire/ --

- CA to Phase Out BMC Software and Help LVM Establish an Integrated
Management System for its Existing and New Technologies

- CA ESP Workload Automation to Deliver Higher Productivity, Cost
Control, and Reduced Risk

CA, Inc. (NASDAQ: CA) today announced that LVM Versicherungen, a
nationwide insurance group that is among the top five auto insurers in
Germany, will control its workflows using CA ESP Workload Automation. The
world's leading provider of IT management software is supporting the
insurance company by introducing a business-oriented strategy for
cross-platform workflow management.

In a highly competitive insurance market it is key for business-critical
applications to remain highly reliable and cost efficient, which is why LVM
Versicherungen has chosen CA ESP Workload Automation.

The solution, which will phase out BMC CONTROL-M, responds to business
events in real time, allocates workload processes to respective service level
agreements, distributes resources according to their infrastructure status,
and proactively administers performance.

"In contrast to BMC, CA ESP Workload Automation provides a browser-based
graphical interface, which allows us to quickly and easily depict network
processes," said JÃŒrgen Falk, project manager at LVM Versicherungen. "In
addition, our job and network documentation, which previously needed to be
maintained manually, will now be automatically updated, and graphical
representations can be created at any time. This allows our project staff to
access the latest information at any time with the touch of a button. With up
to 48,000 daily jobs on all platforms-z/OS, UNIX, Linux and Windows-this
represents a significant workload reduction."

CA ESP Workload Automation is a mainframe-hosted, event-driven solution
for workload automation that offers the following advantages:

- Browser-based graphical interface
    - Increased operating efficiency
    - Greater productivity
    - Improved availability of important business services
    - Cost control and reduced risk



Falk continued: "CA ESP Workload Automation also features a test
environment with a functional simulation. With job charts, job flows, and
informative-including graphical-reports, errors that may occur when jobs and
networks are being defined can quickly be recognized in advance within the
test environment."

"While complexity is increasing, it is even more important to safely
manage our IT processes. When data and transactions are being processed,
there is no room for error," explained Werner Schmidt, executive manager at
LVM Versicherungen. "CA will help us to establish an integrated management
system for our existing and new technologies."
