The BMC Customer Experience Program
The Power of Experience
IT is the heart of the modern autonomous digital enterprise (ADE). To support the evolution to an ADE, organizations will need to adopt a next-generation business model. And that’s where we can help.
Because our solutions have many dimensions, they can seem daunting. We need to have conversations with customers to discuss the value BMC brings and how we can help them reach their ADE goals.
The BMC Customer Experience Program provides a creative, collaborative environment where innovation flourishes and sound digital transformation strategy emerges—and you and your customers win.

-Bob Beauchamp, Board Chairman
THE BRIEFING PROGRAM IS
BMC'S #1 SALES TOOL.
“It was a great opportunity to hear about new things,
and even things I hadn’t known existed.”
– CXO, major agricultural/financial conglomerate
“The BMC Customer Experience Program had the right balance of high-level strategic insights combined with
in-depth technical deep-dives on areas of interest.”
– SCO, major pharmaceutical company
“The best use of two days that I can recall. We have learned such a tremendous amount. BMC has devoted so much time and effort to us. A terrific experience for myself and teammates.” – CXO, multi-national financial institution
“Most valuable part of the briefing: Talking to the
A team. Our objectives were the center of attention,
and we appreciated you not making this simply a sales opportunity.” – CXO, multi-national financial institution
