HP to Deliver Combined Tools

Hewlett-Packard (HP) is looking to tie up with Itron Incorporated as part of its efforts to integrate partners in specific vertical markets to deliver combined tools that will help address specific industry issues. HP has merged its OpenView BPI (Business Process Insight) with Itron's metering, data collection, data management and knowledge application suite via open adaptor to enable a utility to track and measure business metrics. Itron is a technology supplier focused on the energy and water industries with more than 3,000 global customers. InfoWorld reports:

HP is likely to target the automotive and high-tech industries in relation to supply chain management (SCM) and product lifecycle management (PLM), according to Margaret Herndon, vertical solutions team lead for HP OpenView. HP is also looking at the pharmaceutical industry in terms of modeling SCM and the clinical trials process, she added.
