Eos gets the IBM tick

Due to changes in the IBM channel model, Eos is required to be IBM Certified to sell IBM products, solutions and services.  In becoming IBM certified we saw two major opportunities – firstly, to ensure our solutions have an IBM technical certification behind them, and secondly, to enable us to provide discounted software licensing services to our clients.

We’re now one of the only fully certified IBM Partners in Australia, selling all five IBM software brands – Lotus, WebSphere, Tivoli, Information Management (DB2) and Rational.

NEWS:  Important changes to IBM licensing renewals.

IBM has recently announced that Business Partner (BP) renewals of existing licenses must be processed through a BP that is certified in the IBM software brand you wish to renew. For more information, contact our National Licensing Manager.  

Or alternately if you need a renewal processed, request a free quote from Eos on your next software renewal.


With the full range of IBM certifications, we can offer our licensing clients a range of benefits, including:

  • access to special bids on IBM Recommended Retail Price (RRP)
  • access to more competitive pricing that is unavailable anywhere else
  • ability to transact annual licensing renewals at a discounted price
  • ability to ‘bundle’ licensing into cost-effective groupings
  • financing preparation and assistance through IBM Global Finance
  • access to advanced knowledge in product capabilities
  • access to an extended professional network of software and licensing experts from Eos and IBM Australia.
  • regular updates on changes in IBM licensing policies, including free help with accessing Passport Advantage (PPA) training.

In addition to software procurement services, our national Licensing team also provides:
