Atlanta, GA – October 2008. Bitam, a Software 500 Company and global provider of Enterprise Performance Management (EPM) solutions, including Business Intelligence (BI), Financial Planning, and Strategic Planning, today announced that several new partnerships have been formed in Brazil. Intercommerce Technologies, CINCO Business Consulting and Hensel Informatica will help customers integrate their business processes and monitor key performance indicators (KPI) through the use of the Bitam Business Intelligence product, Artus.

“Enterprise Performance Management, including Business Intelligence, Strategic Planning and Financial Planning, is a steadily growing market in Brazil,” commented Miguel Damian, Bitam Regional Sales Director of Latin America. “With these strategic partnerships, Bitam is reinforcing our commitment to the Latin American marketplace. The Artus platform and our relationships with Intercommerce Technologies, Cinco Business Consulting and Hensel Informatica will help drive the success of Business Intelligence initiatives in many organizations throughout the region.”

“For two years, we searched for a BI partner that met the most important requirements of the Brazilian retailers: high performance, assurance and low price. BITAM showed us that it is possible to conciliate these requirements. We are now working together on new prospects and our current customers”, said Marcos Takata, CEO of Intercommerce Technologies.

Bitam partners, ranging from resellers to original equipment manufacturers (OEM’s), can quickly gain a competitive edge and realize a rapid return on their investment. The Bitam EPM suite of applications serves as the foundation for organizations to make rapid business decisions while providing Executives and analysts with the powerful ad-hoc analytical capabilities needed in order to effectively monitor company progress.

“For our customers, Bitam G6 is the ideal compliment in our consulting projects, being strategic planning, market penetration, pricing analysis or services and product management. Our focus at CINCO Business Consulting is the revenue growth of our customers. We understand companies need a long-term plan and strategies to reach their objectives and short-term goals to ensure results. We chose to work with Bitam because it’s the only software offering this integrated vision,” said Mike Inhetvin, Founder of CINCO Business Consulting.

“Throughout 2008, Bitam has focused on creating partnerships as a way to increase marketplace awareness. Our Executive and Sales team will continue to aggressively pursue new relationships as a way to continue growing the business”, said David Abdo, Bitam CEO.
