Advanced IBM Business Partner

Our passion is developing collaborative applications that help our customers to be more efficient, more competitive and to demonstrate that they are in control of their key processes.

FoCul is proud to be an Advanced IBM Business Partner. Being an Advanced IBM Business Partner is important to us for the following reasons :

  • It gives us access to key technical resources within IBM so that we can solve your problems better.
  • It gives us access to additional training resources that keep us abreast of the latest technology.
  • It gives us access to all of the latest IBM products and early access into beta testing programs so that we can ensure that our applications are as good as they can be.
  • It shows our customers that although our team all have Business or Industry backgrounds we are also very competent in developing IT solutions.

    • In addition to being an IBM Advanced Business Partner we are also an IBM Design Partner. This program allows us to work with IBM on the next releases of their products while they are still in development.
