BMC

Bmc Software Inc

A maker of software that keeps big companies' computer systems running smoothly, BMC Software helps organizations manage their IT, automate workloads, and orchestrate complex business processes with tools like Control-M. Founded in 1980 in Houston by three former Shell Oil employees — Scott Boulette, John Moores, and Dan Cloer — the company got its name from the initials of its founders' last names. It began by speeding up the slow, costly IBM mainframe computers of the day before expanding into modern cloud and distributed systems.
