Press release from: Avolution

Avolution, recently positioned as a ‘Leader’ in the Gartner Magic Quadrant for Enterprise Architecture tools* for the second consecutive year and developer of the ABACUS® software for enterprise modeling, planning and IT strategy, will be participating in the American Public Transportation Association’s EXPO, scheduled to take place October 13-15 in Houston, Texas.

APTA’s EXPO, which takes place only once every three years, is a one of a kind event that showcases many of the transportation industry’s most innovative and creative solutions. It attracts an audience of over 15,000 attendees and is the largest event of its kind in the world.

“This is an exciting opportunity to showcase some recent success stories with some of North America’s largest and most dynamic authorities in public transit” said Grant Quick, Avolution’s Vice President of American Operations. “Given the complexity of public transit today it is a significant challenge for transit providers to streamline their organizations while continuing to provide customers with new technologies, such as live scheduling updates. Our ABACUS software can help agencies plan and manage change, taking the pain out of these transitions.”

Throughout the event, Avolution will be providing demonstrations of ABACUS and will be showcasing ABACUS 4.3, the newest release of the software, together with the company’s innovative HTML5-based service, ABACUS® Intelligence On-Demand™. Avolution will be displaying solutions showcasing its strengths in Enterprise Architecture (EA); Enterprise Portfolio Management (EPM); IT Strategic Planning; and Governance, Risk & Compliance (GRC).
