IBM acquires MRO Software

With the acquisition of MRO, a leading provider of asset and service management solutions, IBM plans to leverage MRO's software portfolio and management consultants to provide clients with a single approach to managing all industrial and IT assets. Since MRO's offerings were built on a modern architecture, they can be integrated into IBM's service oriented architecture (SOA)-based capabilities, including business process management and IT service management.
