McCabe & Beijing Institute of Control Engineering Bring True Change to China

Company Selects TRUEchange as Its Complete Configuration Management Solution

WARWICK, RI (PRWEB) September 18, 2004 -- McCabe & Associates Inc. announced the decision by Beijing Institute of Control Engineering (BICE), a leader in the field of research related to spacecraft control engineering, to implement TRUEchange, its leading configuration management solution.

BICE chose TRUEchange because it is the only configuration management solution fully based on unique and powerful Change-Set technology. Change-Sets elevate the unit of change from individual files to logical changes such as bug fixes and features. Change-Set technology allows users to move, share, and manipulate these sets of changes as a single unit across versions. Manipulations can include backing out any changes or migrating changes into any application version without being inundated with file-by-file retrofit work. BICE plans to leverage this technology in an effort to build an integrated configuration management system used by software project leaders enterprise-wide in order to improve their development efficiency.

BICE has a number of locations across China, and will benefit substantially from TRUEchanges web-enabled Java client allowing collaboration of distributed teams via the Internet, without browser limitations.

BICE personnel will take advantage of TRUEchanges standardized user interface which is used across multiple development environments, shortening the training and implementation schedule. Since each member of BICEs multi-platform development team utilizes the same user interface, they are able to implement the TRUEchange solution in a fraction of the normal time. As a result of the ease of deployment and intuitive graphical user interface, TRUEchange administrators are able to manage many more developers, resulting in a lower total cost of ownership.
