SYDNEY, 13 September 2021— Strategic Consulting Partnerships Pty Ltd (SCP), announced today that they have been appointed as a reseller partner for Critical Path Software LLC (CPS).

CPS’s TurboTune and TurboTune SQL, are highly specialised, one-of-a-kind analytics tools that audit mainframe systems. These non-intrusive tools analyse I/O subsystems and databases in the mainframe environment and make recommendations to realise comprehensive savings in performance and storage access, therefore a reduction in mainframe MIPS and bottom-line computing costs.

SCP Managing Director, Paul Matthews said, “TurboTune and TurboTune SQL will provide further cost reductions and optimisation services to SCP’s mainframe customers in the Asia/Pacific Region.” 

CPS Global Business Development Vice President, Chris Barber said, “We are extremely pleased to appoint SCP as our Business Partner in the Asia/Pacific Region. They complement our products by bringing their in-depth knowledge, skills and industry experience to new customers.” 

Paul commented, “IBM Z systems remain the primary platform for enterprise computing for most major organisations in the region and continue to evolve however their basic infrastructure remains unchanged running on VSAM and Db2. With the TurboTune software suite, combined with SCP’s unrivalled mainframe expertise, our customers can now achieve additional savings and increase their operating efficiencies”. 

CPS and SCP are currently offering a preliminary assessment, to help IBM Z customers identify inefficiencies in their mainframe processing. This assessment is provided at no-cost to the customer. The audit process is simple and non-intrusive. Required data is collected quickly and the initial assessment is typically completed within a week. The resulting assessment report provides companies a measurable and verifiable snapshot of where inefficiencies might reside in their mainframe system.
