IBM to iSeries Resellers: Learn New Skills or Be Left Behind
by Alex Woodie
IBM says changes it made to the iSeries reseller channel program last year are working, and it doesn't plan to make any significant changes for 2004. In 2003, IBM eliminated the coverage value added enhancements (VAEs) for 150 of its smallest business partners, which hampered their ability to sell iSeries upgrades as they had in the past. IBM executives say it was a necessary move in order to protect the profit margins of resellers who invested in new skills and software solutions, and to make the overall partner ecosystem healthier.

Is CRM Software Worth It? IDC Says Yes
by Timothy Prickett Morgan
One need only look at the Fortune 500 list and see Wal-Mart at the top to realize that SCM (supply chain management) software, which automates and integrates the functioning of a company and its suppliers into a collective whole, and which can wring extra profits out of that supply chain, to know that such software is worth it.
