MEGA develops and markets the MEGA Suite, enterprise software for EA, business architecture (BA), and governance, risk, and compliance (GRC). The software helps companies improve business performance, decrease operational costs, and reduce corporate risks
SAFIRA, based in Portugal, will focus on business development in its home country, as well as Angola and Mozambique, two African nations with close business ties to Portugal. The company is experienced in business development, consulting, and distribution of IT solutions as a partner of Microsoft, Google, Oracle, and IBM.
Since 1997, SAFIRA has offered solutions to help companies gain business value by designing, building, and managing effective and efficient IT resources. MEGA’s EA and BA solutions will help SAFIRA provide business improvement capabilities to growing companies. MEGA’s GRC solution is especially vital for financial services companies like many of SAFIRA’s customers.
