Serena Software, Valtech join hands

BANGALORE, INDIA: Application lifecycle management (ALM) provider Serena Software and enterprise software development, outsourcing, and organizational transformation service provider Valtech, today announced a partnership in Agile software development services.

The partnership promises to usher in a new era of Agile software development in the enterprise, said a press release.

Agile is an iterative software development methodology that promotes team collaboration and adaptability throughout a project lifecycle. It’s faster and more responsive than the traditional waterfall model, which takes a purely sequential approach to creating software, the release said.

“Agile development methodologies are seeing tremendous adoption in ISVs and IT departments of all sizes,” said Jeremy Burton, CEO of Serena. “We are committed to delivering a pure-Agile toolset via SaaS later this year and are delighted to have Valtech as our partner of choice as we roll that toolset out to market.”

According to Brad Murphy, CEO of Valtech North America, “Together, Serena and Valtech will ensure that business stakeholders, product owners and engineering teams can all equally succeed at acquiring the skill and value that Agile tools and best practices offer.”

Serena and Valtech jointly will support Serena Agile development tools with training and documentation delivered in a variety of flexible formats.
