MEGA, the company that provides leading enterprise architecture (EA) and business process analysis (BPA) solutions, has been named by Forrester Research as a leader in its January 2009 report, The Forrester Wave™: Business Process Analysis, Enterprise Architecture (EA) Tools, and IT Planning, Q1 2009.

The report states that MEGA is one of only five companies that “lead the EA Tools Category.”

EA helps organizations become more efficient. It provides critical information for better decision making and resource allocation, and as a result, enables improved productivity, higher levels of customer satisfaction and retention, and significant cost savings. EA optimally aligns business strategy with operational processes and IT investments.

“MEGA is a Leader in all categories with a very homogeneous product. Thanks to the MEGA Advisor, MEGA has one of the most impressive set of predefined and customizable real-time dashboards, which makes its solution one of the leading offerings in analysis and simulation,” noted the report.

For this report, Forrester measured leading vendors against 93 criteria in current offerings, strategy, and market presence. The companies in the report each had EA capabilities with broad metamodel capabilities and support for multiple frameworks, minimum revenues of $20 million or fast-growing revenues, and the ability to serve customers worldwide.

“The MEGA Modeling Suite has been the foundation for improved business performance at large enterprises worldwide for more than 17 years,” explained Lucio de Risi, president and CEO of MEGA. “Our software and methodologies enable companies to achieve their goals by efficiently aligning business strategy with operational processes and IT investments.”

The MEGA software uses mapping, modeling, and visual impact analysis to help organizations understand and manage their enterprise architecture, analyze their business processes, anticipate trends, and manage changes in their markets. Complementing this advanced software is a team of expert consultants who help customers identify and optimize their business processes and implement enterprise architecture management programs.
