March 21, 2011 - PRLog -- Remote Consulting Technologies, Inc.
And
Critical Path Software, Inc.
Announce they have joined forces in a strategic partnership to bring Software Products and Services to both companies' Clients.  Working together they will provide Remote Performance Tuning and DASD Monitoring and Analysis as well as Testing and implementation Support.

If you are going to reduce Mainframe costs, CPU, MSU, DASD and MIP COST’S do it in the most inexpensive way possible. Tremendous ROI and CBA provided.

Remote Consulting Technologies, Inc. (aka – Remote Consulting USA) has taken on the role of testing and implementation support in partnership with Critical Path Software, Inc.  System performance improvements often require testing and implementation of critical system alterations, including but not limited to: VSAM and other file alterations, application program changes and recompiles, JCL alterations, procedure library alterations, file system unloads and reloads, and database unloads and reloads.

While the savings realized in performance improvements can be quite enormous, the involvement by internal staff and employees required to implement the required program and system changes can alternatively divert the focus of IT resources away from critical internal development initiatives.  This is where Remote Consulting USA’s testing and implementation expertise can really pay off, increasing your ROI for performance improvement testing and implementation.

Remote Consulting USA’s resources can help corporate IT departments reduce their cost of performance improvement testing and implementation by providing the following cost saving initiatives:

• Cost reductions from NOT having to provide or maintain office space and facility resources for performance improvement testing and implementation resources
• Cost reductions from NOT having to pay for employee benefits or high-cost consultant fees for performance improvement testing and implementation resources
• Cost reductions from NOT having to provide software licensing for temporary performance improvement testing and implementation resources
• Reduced performance improvement testing and implementation completion timelines from having performance improvement testing and implementation project specific resources
• Performance improvement testing and implementation deliverables produced and scrutinized by senior American IT professionals
• NO language barriers or phonetics issues often encountered when securing outside testing and implementation resources
With over 25 years’ experience in mainframe application systems development, testing and implementation, Remote Consulting USA and Critical Path Software, Inc. together can dramatically increase your ROI for performance improvement initiatives.
Remote Consulting USA provides its mainframe services using qualified senior applications developers and systems analysts whose array of expertise includes but is not limited to; systems design and analysis, project management, project leadership, coding, testing, Quality Assurance and implementation.

Remote Consulting USA adheres to IT standards for SDLC and complies with CMMI and ISO standards, policies and procedures for development, testing and implementations.
