this role it distinguished itself by becoming a consulting company to
consultants and consultant organizations in the field of business and system
engineering, as well as project management.
Infomet

systems, as well as the integration of such systems within enterprise
architectures of most of the blue chip companies in South Africa. Infomet also

methodologies with regard to its engagement with IBM throughout Europe

Infomet
believes that the ICT Market has matured in its requirement for
methodology training, and now offers training to enhance project
