In today’s digital-first economy, where every dollar must deliver measurable value, Sri Lankan enterprises are reimagining how they invest in technology. On October 29th, DMS Software Technologies, in strategic collaboration with IBM Apptio, hosted a high-impact event at Cinnamon Life, Colombo—focused on unlocking business value through smarter IT and cloud spend.

Themed “Redefining IT Investments with Apptio,” the event convened C-level IT and Finance leaders to explore how IT Financial Management (ITFM) and FinOps are reshaping enterprise decision-making.

Eugene Tay, Director of Solutions Consulting at IBM Apptio, delivered key insights on:

  • ITFM for Business Value: Enhancing visibility into technology costs, aligning spend with business outcomes, and enabling smarter budgeting.
  • FinOps as a Strategic Lever: Transforming cloud spend into a competitive advantage through cross-functional collaboration and financial accountability.

Vijay Balan, Regional Director at IBM, joined Lasantha Bogoda, Director/CEO of DMS Software Technologies, to spotlight DMS FinOps Services—a scalable support model tailored for Sri Lankan enterprises, powered by IBM Apptio’s proven platform.

“FinOps isn’t just a framework—it’s a mindset shift,” said Lasantha Bogoda- Director/ CEO at DMS Software Technologies. “At DMS, we empower organisations to take control of their cloud spend, drive financial clarity, and turn IT investments into strategic growth levers.”

With strong engagement from industry leaders, the event marked a pivotal step in advancing IT financial maturity across Sri Lanka’s enterprise landscape—reinforcing DMS’s commitment to driving innovation, accountability, and value in tech investments.
