Business Partner Programmes

Information Delivery Solutions

Infomet provides an opportunity for organisations to become business partners in one of two forms; As a channel partner in engaging markets and customers on behalf of Infomet. Or, as a supplier of technical software and hardware products and accompanying support services as part of our bundled solutions to Infomet's markets and customers. To understand more on what these programmes entail and how to participate, please read further in the sections below.

  • Channel Partner Programs
    • Infomet's flexible Go-to-market strategy makes provision for interested organisations or individuals to participate as an accredited channel partner. The objective of this strategy is for Infomet to reach a broader market with its offerings through a collaborative network of channel associates.

      In order to qualify to become a channel partner of Infomet, interested parties need to be formally accredited. The Channel Partner accreditation program consists of three elements:

      • An initial evaluation by one of our executives to ascertain the business viability and partnership fit.
      • A formal Channel Partner classification process to determine what type of channel partnership will apply as business partner with Infomet. The types of partnerships are: Agent, Dealer, Value Added Reseller or Solution Integrator.
      • A Channel Partner rating process will determine the portion of commission and revenue that a Channel Partner could earn.
      Once a Channel Partner has been accredited, will the formal engagement with Infomet commence through contracting, training and marketing.

  • Supplier Partner Programmes
    • Infomet's technology solutions are in demand in many vertical markets and geographical regions globally. Infomet additionally follows a rigorous technology product development programme to ensure that our technology solutions remain relevant for the market segments it has been crafted for, whilst keeping abreast with the maturity evolution of Information Technology.

      Being specialist in building enterprise information delivery solutions on big-data assets, are our solutions engineers at Infomet continuously grappling with buy or build decisions that will enable Infomet to remain ahead of the technical innovation curve against our competitors. For these reasons some of our enterprise IDS solutions are comprised of underlying components that are supplied to Infomet under a Supplier Partner Programme.

      Furthermore, are the Infomet IDS Stacks build on both hardware and software systems and have we entered into supplier agreements with organisations such as Oracle, Hewlett Packard and Axys. In most of these relationships has Infomet been accredited with Gold Partner status for these suppliers. Traditionally, suppliers have pre-set contracting forms and as much as Infomet accredits its Channel Partners, Infomet is also subject to the same scrutiny with its suppliers.

      The pre-condition that Infomet sets and applies in contracting with suppliers however, are based primarily on the protection of our intellectual property as well as access to customer data/information by participants on our customer engagements. Infomet ensures this governance through rigorous contracting with suppliers and in some cases, are customers and their supplier groups also involved and contractually committed to Infomet's supplier contracting.

      Infomet makes use of a Dutch-based legal firm in support of all our supplier programme contracting. Stibbe is based in Amsterdam and specialises in the protection of intellectual property of original manufacturers of software solutions such as Infomet.
