IBM signs five-year outsourcing agreement with Romero Group

Jul 23, 2008 (Datamonitor via COMTEX) -- IBM | Quote | Chart | News | PowerRating -- IBM and Romero Group, a Peru-based private business group, have signed a five-year IT infrastructure outsourcing agreement. The agreement was signed in April of 2008.

To keep up with growing SAP resource demands, Romero Group started to assess - in late 2007 - the outsourcing of their technology platform as well as different services options available in the market. They sought a technology partner who would be capable of meeting the highest SAP outsourcing quality standards at competitive costs.

To meet these needs, IBM proposed a solution that leveraged its external storage and Unix processing technologies, which met all the technical requirements and could provide the expected benefits. The service scope also included the application of outsourcing best practices, which IBM has leveraged with over 50 customers in Peru and on hundreds of technology campuses worldwide.

In addition, Romero Group has decided to expand the solutions scope to other IT components, adding new services for Intel and Power Systems platforms, as well as in-store equipment maintenance services.
