No one company can capture the e-business opportunity alone. Working together we can go to market with innovative solutions and capitalize on the explosive growth that is e-business. Fueled by the spectrum of IBM's co-marketing tools, support, education and certification, IBM Business Partners are winning in the marketplace.

Today's business environment contains only one constant...change. For many small and medium sized businesses, that translates into a critical need for solutions that can help them get to market quickly with minimal risk. Solutions often have to be deployed in weeks, even with customization that might require sophisticated functionality, integrated product procurement, and application hosting services. Few growing businesses have the capabilities to manage all this, so they turn to leading solutions providers such as Innovative Alternatives, Technology Consultants.

Innovative values this relationship just as much as IBM does. "Today, greater opportunities exist for companies such as ours to leverage IBM's relationships for business development. By providing hands-on support, IBM helps us ensure clients get the full value out of their technology investment," says Doug Ulrich, Senior Partner, Innovative Alternatives, Technology Consulting.

"In our partnership with IBM," says Todd Woodyatt, Partner Innovative Alternatives, "we go to market together, we train our people on IBM products and technologies, and we help our clients understand IBM's products. The IBM relationship is extremely strategic to us."
