StreamServe and IBM Develop Joint On-Demand Enterprise Document Presentment Solutions for Fabrication and Assembly Customers

Market Wire, September, 2005

StreamServe® Inc., the world leader in Enterprise Document Presentment (EDP), today announced it has achieved industry-optimized IBM PartnerWorld Industry Networks status. StreamServe can now leverage IBM's sales, marketing and technical expertise to develop and deliver comprehensive on-demand enterprise document presentment solutions to customers in the fabrication and assembly industry.

"Our fabrication and assembly customers consistently tell us that they need enterprise documents that map to their customers' information and service needs rather than their business systems," said Buell Duncan, general manager, ISV & Developer Relations, IBM. "StreamServe's EDP solution provides this because it integrates so well with DB2 Content Manager's imaging, digital asset management, Web content management and content integration capabilities."

StreamServe's unique enterprise applications enable companies to generate documents that originate from any legacy application, are two-way communication enabled, and are distributed through multiple distribution channels to any type of communication device. The company's enterprise document presentment capabilities are unparalleled in helping companies meet the diverse needs of customer delivery preferences, business changes and IT integration.

"Working with IBM PartnerWorld Industry Networks, StreamServe offers fabrication and assembly companies the industry's first comprehensive enterprise document presentment solution which combines document assembly, storage, preparation and distribution," said Pamela Blechman, StreamServe's vice president of business development and alliances. "This solution enables companies to turn their static documents into strategic communication vehicles that strengthen customer relationships and drive new revenue opportunities. Our EDP solutions address the creation, presentment and distribution of these documents. These processes are critical because they determine how our customers present themselves to their customers."

StreamServe enables IBM's DB2 Content Manager and Websphere software products to deliver personalized, unified documents that are specific to fabrication and assembly customers without requiring changes to source systems or business processes. The solution integrates data from a range of software platforms and applications, including ERP, legacy, SCM and CRM systems, and then consolidates and personalizes the data to generate unified statements or reports for electronic, interactive and/or print distribution.

The IBM PartnerWorld Industry Networks provide ISVs with comprehensive business insight, technical resources, networking opportunities, and marketing and sales support designed to help them reach more customers and close deals faster. Participants in the PartnerWorld Industry Networks can team with IBM to bring on-demand solutions to market more easily and to ensure these solutions meet specific industry needs, reflecting how customers buy technology today.
