ATLANTA - s4story -- Computer Measurement Group (CMG), in partnership with the Mullen Foundation, today announced Code Magus as the recipient of the 2025 IMPACT Innovation Award, awarded December 11, 2025, for its project Orkhestra V3: Innovation in Motion.

Orkhestra V3 is a sophisticated non-functional testing and analysis platform designed to mirror real-world user behavior at scale. By combining realistic workload modeling, synchronized time-series data, centralized logging, and statistical post-processing, Code Magus delivers deep performance insight and confidence for complex enterprise systems.

Unlike traditional pass/fail testing approaches, Orkhestra V3 emphasizes measurable outcomes and explainable results—highlighting performance degradation, imbalance, and capacity risks through statistical analysis rather than subjective thresholds. The platform enables distributed teams to collaboratively observe tests in real time while retaining historical context across executions.

The award was revealed live on December 11 following a series of finalist presentations and community participation throughout November and December. Finalists included Code Magus (winner), HCLTech, and Ancestry.

Established in 2021, the IMPACT Innovation Awards recognize individuals and teams who design and implement IT innovations that drive meaningful, measurable change despite constraints such as limited budgets, small teams, or complex environments. Previous recipients include Capital One, Broadcom Mainframe Software, and Legal & General.

"Orkhestra V3 represents the kind of innovation CMG seeks to recognize — technically rigorous, thoughtfully designed, and grounded in real-world application," said Amanda Hendley, Managing Director of CMG. "Code Magus has demonstrated how statistical insight, realistic user modeling, and disciplined engineering can fundamentally improve confidence in performance decisions."

The IMPACT Innovation Award is sponsored by the Mullen Foundation, established in memory of J. William (Bill) Mullen, a past president of CMG. According to Thomas Halinski, Board of Director member, "Recognizing excellence in performance analysis and advancing professional understanding of this field remains central to the Foundation's mission. Code Magus exemplifies those values."
