Enterprise Automation

Workload automation that runs the business while you sleep

The work that keeps an enterprise running mostly happens out of sight: batch processing, file transfers, data pipelines, application workflows. When it works, nobody notices. When it doesn't, the business notices immediately. Mediro ICT delivers BMC Control-M workload automation that orchestrates this work reliably across mainframe, distributed, and cloud environments.

The challenge

Fragility hidden in a patchwork of schedulers

Most enterprises run thousands of scheduled processes every night. Most of them are managed by a patchwork of cron jobs, custom scripts, vendor-specific schedulers, and tribal knowledge. The result is operational fragility. When something fails, the dependency chain isn't documented, the recovery procedure isn't standard, and the people who understand it are a small, irreplaceable group.

This worked when batch was a back-office concern. It doesn't work now. Modern workloads span multiple environments, depend on real-time data, and feed customer-facing applications. The cost of a missed batch is no longer just an operational inconvenience. It's a customer-facing failure with revenue and reputational consequences.

What we deliver

One platform, one operational view

Control-M implementation

End-to-end implementation of BMC Control-M, the enterprise standard for workload automation across mainframe, distributed, and cloud platforms.

Workflow design and migration

Design of orchestration workflows that capture real business logic, plus migration from legacy schedulers (cron, JCL, Tivoli, AutoSys, Stonebranch) with full dependency mapping.

Multi-platform orchestration

Orchestration across mainframe (z/OS), Linux, Windows, AWS, Azure, GCP, SAP, Hadoop, and bespoke applications. One platform, one operational view.

Application workflow automation

Automation of complex application workflows beyond batch: file transfers, ETL pipelines, financial close processes, regulatory reporting, supply chain operations.

SLAs and self-service workflows

Service-level objectives defined per workflow with proactive alerting when SLAs are at risk. Application teams can define their own workflows within governance guardrails, reducing the queue at central operations without compromising platform integrity.

Managed workload automation

Ongoing operation, monitoring, and optimisation of your Control-M environment. Mediro stays accountable for platform performance.

Outcomes

Reliable workloads, recoverable failures, scalable operations

Our workload automation clients gain a single operational view of every scheduled process, with the dependency intelligence to recover quickly when something goes wrong.

  • Reliable, on-time completion of business-critical workloads

  • Reduced manual intervention through intelligent dependency management

  • Single operational view across previously siloed environments

  • Faster recovery from failures through built-in error handling and rerun logic

  • Compliance-ready audit trails for regulated industries

  • Capacity for application teams to grow without operations becoming the bottleneck
