Cary, N.C. – The infraWise/IRC Group of Companies announces the latest release of its award-winning, ITIL®-based iWise™ Service Management suite of applications.

The iWise™ Service Management suite provides a comprehensive, extended data model that guides functional processing by incorporating customized workflows throughout the integrated suite of applications. The suite of solutions offers organizations a complete lifecycle approach to Service Management, aimed at maximizing efficiency and reducing costs. iWise™ creates a unified environment, guided by an organization's business objectives, and strongly demonstrates the cost-benefit relationship of enterprise investments by providing ease of implementation and support for the ITIL®-recommended Best Practices.
