OUR RIVER RUNS DEEP

Philosophy and opportunity are powerful partners

None more so than in the cerebral world of systems and network management. This is the domain of the technically inclined. A world of operational business dynamics that is not for the faint-hearted. But as daunting and complex as it is, it remains a world driven by rooted philosophies, crafted by the minds of brilliant people and implemented by conviction and faith in the collaborative genius of human understanding. It is a world where intellect and opportunity combine for common purpose.

Consequently, more than most, this is a people's business. For those who ply its trade, they are the captains, of the captains of industry. It's a big call, and one which carries its own unique accountabilities.

Those who deal in it, deal in intellectual resources of formidable value to the companies they support, both in maximising their IT infrastructure and in extracting the most from opportunities. Doing it right, adding the value that really counts and delivering on promises is not just capability. It's a philosophy.

Blue River Management is the leading purveyor of OSS (Operational Support Systems) and BSS (Business Support Systems) on the African continent. From its beginnings in 2001, the company rapidly expanded its philosophy of excellence through 'people and partnerships' by gathering a team of the best people in the business. It quickly forged relationships with leading suppliers of OSS and BSS products in the world today. This has developed into an ongoing process of R&D to continually evaluate trends and developments, not only in product upgrades and new releases, but also in business trends and developments world-wide.

By developing and applying management solutions that are integrally aligned to customer business processes, Blue River is able to assemble ‘best of breed' IT management solutions which encompass customer operational skills.

In practice, this empowers customers with a completely integrated IT service management infrastructure that has direct benefits on the bottom line. Blue River delivers such solutions in a package comprising Consulting, Support, Training and Sales, giving customers end-to-end visibility of their entire IT infrastructure.

Using its international experience, knowledge of local conditions, and successes with companies like T-Systems, AST and Telkom, Blue River offers its customers, both big and small, best practice in complex solutions and situations. The Blue River team offers extensive experience in network and systems management products and is well versed in both Enterprise and Telco environments.

But capacity without veracity is meaningless. At Blue River, what you see is what you get. We like to call it direct professionalism. It's infused into everything we do. Our search is for solutions that give our customers the very best available outcomes. We don't sell for the best profit, or devise systems support that suits us and not our customers. We do it the hard way. And that's right way.

Since founder Brett Holmes started out in July 2001, with the philosophy that the only way to grow the business was to grow customers' businesses through direct, hands on partnering, Blue River has gone from strength to strength. It is today arguably the leading company in its field in Africa. It counts its success on the success of its customers. That's the way it was to be

And still is.
