CA Enables Worldwide Leader in Oil and Gas Services Saipem to Drill Deep to Support Strategic Projects Across 35 Countries

Leading CA Clarity PPM Solution Enables Efficient Use of Global Workforce and Strategic Planning to Help Meet Future Business Objectives

ISLANDIA, New York, January 13 - CA, Inc. (Nasdaq: CA) today announced that Saipem, an Italian company and
one of the largest oil and gas industry contractors worldwide, is using CA
Clarity(TM) Project & Portfolio Management (PPM) software to manage strategic
projects among its three global business units including offshore, onshore
and drilling. With CA Clarity PPM, Saipem gets a global view and manages its
workforce resources across the entire project life cycle, from the
preliminary planning phase before the project is actually acquired, through
the simulations, to the detailed planning and bidding stages.

With revenues exceeding US$14.8 billion, Saipem provides engineering,
procurement, project management and construction services for the oil
industry — both onshore and offshore — as well as drilling, maintenance and
operations in some of the world's most difficult areas, including remote
areas and deep water. With more than 38,000 employees in over 35 countries,
Saipem needed a global resource management platform to allocate the right
workforce resources over the entire project life cycle. Most importantly, the
company must plan and track its vast workforce, blended from various sources,
including internal employees from various Saipem divisions, staff from other
Saipem companies, and contractors from outside organizations.

CA Clarity PPM was selected by Saipem as the foundation of the new
system. The CA solution is used to translate all of the company's project
factors into hourly measurements that help to track a project's performance.
In October 2008, Saipem began using CA Clarity PPM at the group's online
business unit, initially dealing with more than 300 users at onshore service
providers. At that point, it started to manage more than 400 running
projects. Today, CA Clarity PPM is leveraged by Saipem as a strategic project
management application for turnkey EPIC contracts which form the basis of
their core business. These cover all engineering, procurement, installation
and construction tasks for complex plants and associated infrastructure from
design through to startup.

"As a leader in the highly competitive global oil and gas market, it is
vital that our company has the ability to match business needs with an
adequate source of available resources. The solution from CA gives us greater
operational flexibility and the ability to react faster to changes in the
market," said Alessandro Tintori, Information and Communication Technologies
Project Manager at Saipem. "In addition to managing the various phases of
each project, CA Clarity PPM also allows Saipem to perform strategic
long-term planning to meet business goals laid down by executive management,
providing valuable foresight to help drive our most important business
initiatives."

Now CA Clarity PPM is being used to manage more than 700 projects of
varying size, including large operations typically lasting 24-36 months.
Hundreds of people with high level responsibility, such as project managers,
department heads, project control staff and HR managers, leverage CA Clarity
PPM for planning resource demand and capacity, and to help control costs by
tracking scheduled working hours and relative budgets.

"Companies such as Saipem are extending PPM from its success in IT
organizations to broader use across the enterprise in project-based
solutions," said Brian Bell, senior vice president and general manager of the
CA Clarity PPM business unit at CA. "From its use across geographies and
business units to help maximize resources and revenues, Saipem is leveraging
CA Clarity PPM as an enterprise application that is core to their business."

CA Clarity PPM connects with multiple software applications inside
Saipem, including Oracle's PeopleSoft(R), which manages in-house resources;
SAP(R) R/3(R), which tracks personnel and controls corporate business
processes; and a data warehouse for the analysis of aggregated data.
Integration with SAP R/3 enables Saipem to create the necessary accounting
links with corporate budget planning so that CA Clarity PPM can manage
performance by position, cost center or project.
