Leading IBM e-Commerce specialists join forces

Nordic e-Commerce Group announced
Three IBM Business Partners specializing in e-Commerce, Theilgaard Mortensen A/S from Denmark, Descom Oy from Finland, and Fiwe Systems & Consulting AB from Sweden together with IBM and Pedab today announced the launch of a strategic alliance Nordic e-Commerce Group to provide Nordic customers with leading e-Commerce solutions.

The announced alliance is the largest joint resource globally for delivering world class e-Commerce based on IBM WebSphere Commerce. It has approx. 197 certified specialists to support the leading Nordic e-Commerce sites. Group customers include such names as Bergsala (Nintendo), Bestseller, Dahl Sverige, Elfa International, Gyldendal, Manutan, Rigshospitalet, Silvan, Stockmann, and Volvo.

Joint resources and capabilities produce higher customer value
Nordic  e-Commerce Group co-operates in six areas: marketing and sales, product and  partner management, project resources, training, development of packaged solutions, and maintenance and support. IBM strongly supports the initiative. IBM’s Value Added Distributor (VAD) Pedab Software AB, now locally represented  in each of the countries, will be an active sponsor and partner to the group  members.

Customers will see benefits especially in stronger supply capacity in deliveries to several countries and multiple-site roll-outs. The group gives access to a stronger dedicated delivery organization to secure high demands and expectations  of their customers’ e-Commerce projects. The group can also utilize IBM  WebSphere Commerce certified resources located in India available for larger  development works.

IBM’s preferred e-Commerce channel across Nordics
“For us at  IBM this initiative comes in a time where the demand for new scalable e-Commerce  platforms is heavily increasing. I personally know the company management teams  and all of them are very committed to succeed together with us and confident in using our technologies. I’m sure this group will play a dominant role in helping  customers with complex resource demands and in helping us to expand our business  in the Nordics market” said Ole Faurholt Eriksen, Nordic Sales Leader, Multi-Channel, WebSphere Commerce, IBM Software Group.

“For our customers, large and small, the network will add long-term strength and access to more specialists within e-Commerce. At the same time for us entrepreneurs, co-operation with like-minded is extremely stimulating. I personally believe very much in open partnerships. This group will give us the extra  momentum we need to quickly expand our business capacities and form a leading  actor within the e-Commerce domain for the Nordics. I’m sure the market will  view and react to this initiative positively” said Ralf Seimertz, CEO and President, FIWE.
