Tenrox Becomes a ‘Front Runner’ with the Release of Tenrox 8.6 Project Governance Solutions

Tenrox, the Integrated Operational Control and Compliance Software Company, recently announced that its Tenrox 8.6 software now leverages Microsoft SQL Server 2005, earning the company Front Runner status from Microsoft Corp. Tenrox’s Enterprise solutions, including Project Portfolio Management, Professional Services Automation and Timesheet software, in combination with Microsoft SQL Server 2005, enable customers to track budgets, facilitate compliance with corporate governance, labour and industry regulations, as well as improve productivity and decision-making. SQL Server 2005 is the next-generation data management and analysis software that will deliver increased scalability, availability and security to enterprise data and analytical applications, while making them easier to create, deploy and manage.

“Microsoft has always been committed to the success of our broad ISV partner community and will continue to rely heavily on that community to drive innovative solutions to market,” said Pradeep Rathinam, general manager of U.S. ISV Strategy in the U.S. Partner Group at Microsoft. “The Front Runner program was designed to provide our partners with the best development environment possible and give them the technical and marketing tools they need to be successful over the long term.”

Microsoft wanted to ensure that ISVs had access to a full host of benefits to enable them to bring best-of-breed solutions to market more quickly and effectively. Giving ISVs the resources they need to fast-track the development of these applications enables customers to start taking advantage of the increased scalability, availability and security of the application built on top of SQL Server 2005 almost immediately, increasing their company’s productivity.

“SQL Server 2005 is a great platform for building scalable enterprise software solutions,” said Rudolf Melik, CEO of Tenrox.  “Achieving Front Runner status assures our customers of our continued commitment and investment in the Microsoft platform in general and SQL Server specifically.”

Without requiring a rip and replace strategy, Tenrox 8.6 leverages Microsoft SQL Server, OLAP, Reporting Services and SharePoint infrastructure to facilitate the phased implementation of project governance and compliance within company operations. The Tenrox solution provides built-in project controls, data quality/consistency at point of entry, active compliance, real-time analytics and live integration capabilities. Key features include: enterprise timesheet management, import of credit card transactions for expense reporting, flexible cost and billing rules, budgeting, OLAP and standard reporting using Microsoft reporting services, role-based dashboards, and export of project status, spending and work-in-progress to accounting and payroll systems.
