Provance Relocates to New Global Headquarters

Provance®, provider of IT Asset Management software for Microsoft® System Center, is announcing its relocation to the company's new global headquarters in Gatineau, Québec, Canada.

A privately held company since 1997, Provance has designed, developed and delivered IT Asset Management solutions, including its pioneering process management packs for Microsoft System Center, to an extensive customer and partner base spanning over 26 countries. Provance solutions have been adopted by industries such as Energy, Financial, Education, Government, Manufacturing and Health.

"The rapid adoption rate of Provance IT Asset Management by Microsoft's System Center customer base has been phenomenal," said Gilles Lalonde, CEO and President at Provance. "From System Center 2010 to 2012, we've built a worldwide customer base and to keep up with the high demand we've upgraded our facilities with infrastructure and space for increased staff required to accommodate our continued growth."

In 2010 Provance pioneered the development of process management packs for Microsoft System Center, introducing a software extension that runs natively within the Service Manager component. Provance management packs allow organizations to leverage their existing Microsoft software deployments and volume license agreements to support comprehensive and cost effective IT Asset Management programs.

Provance currently has three software products for Microsoft's Server and Cloud Platform:

• The Provance IT Asset Management Pack adds powerful IT Asset Life Cycle Management and Software Asset Management to Service Manager, which gives visibility and control of the hardware and software that make up client, cloud computing and datacenter environments;
• The Provance Data Management Pack simplifies, speeds and automates the process of getting data into and out of the Service Manager CMDB, while simultaneously improving data consistency and accuracy; and,
• Provance Bar Code supplements the automated discovery capabilities of Configuration Manager with physical inventory and location tracking that dramatically reduces the manual effort and human error associated with gathering and entering asset data.

Provance is the only provider of IT Asset Management for Microsoft System Center included in the 2013 Gartner MarketScope for the IT Asset Management Repository, receiving recognition for its strong integration with Microsoft System Center 2012 and its ability to rapidly innovate.
