IBM has moved further into the compliance market with the acquisition of Texas based BuildForge, Inc.

Specialising in software enabling software developers automate their processes. At the same time meet audit and compliance mandates. Documentation detailing what was created, how it was developed and deployment.


Organizations are increasingly under pressure to deliver enterprise products and services faster. In addition, development organizations are hard pressed to manage complex applications and coordinate globally distributed development while maintaining high quality software. They are faced with the need to meet compliance mandates -- either from external or internal pressures -- that require complete traceability and audit trails that demand a new flexible development infrastructure.


The intention is for customers to use BuildForges software in conjunction with existing IBM Rational products. As IBM says "automate, track, audit and analyze their application development lifecycle."


"The acquisition of BuildForge will ultimately help customers more effectively govern their software and systems development," said Danny Sabbah, general manager, Rational Software, IBM. "BuildForge closes the gap between writing code, building an application, and releasing it into production."
