CA Technologies CEO Mike Gregoire opened CA World ’17 by encouraging business and IT executives to find the intersection of innovation and execution. He also suggested working with partners like CA, whose software solutions accelerate delivery of business value and help unlock enterprise creativity.
"We’ve long passed the point where enterprise software is used merely to drive efficiencies. The focus today is on innovating the next big shift for your company. That is the No. 1 priority we are focused on – providing you with solutions that will remove the barriers between your ideas and outcomes,” Gregoire said.
Gregoire also encouraged the audience to develop what he calls a sense of digital intuition: leveraging a myriad of customer data to find patterns, anticipate trends, inform decisions and even manage risk.
Gregoire drew on CA’s own blueprint for digital transformation and experiences, explaining how the company has reorganised itself as a Modern Software Factory in recent years to leverage agile, automation, insights and security to enable maximum business value for its customers. He further advised the audience to leverage their existing strengths to support new innovations.
As Gartner notes, “with digital business change being a top CIO priority, existing IT infrastructure and applications, as well as business processes, must accommodate the ‘new’ quickly and rapidly. If legacy systems fail to support, integrate or enable these new digital initiatives, digital business success will be impaired, or even fail.”*
“The ability to manage change, respond to new inputs or insights and pivot has never been more important,” said Gregoire. “Our entire portfolio is designed around the pillars of the Modern Software Factory to increase the velocity, security and performance of the solutions and the apps that are critical to our customers’ businesses.”
Gregoire shared an update of the company’s own innovation engine, the CA Accelerator. Ten startups currently enrolled in the programme function like “lean startups” within CA. Each one receives support and funding to develop and test new product ideas in the marketplace. One of the programme’s success stories, FreshTracks.io, announced the open registration for its beta programme on the first day of CA World.
Customers who have built their reputations by executing well on innovative thinking, were profiled, including Citi FinTech. The innovation unit within Citi’s Global Consumer Bank is a customer of CA Agile Requirements Designer, and was charged with delivering a superior customer experience on mobile.
