When choosing a business partner to assist your organization with any project, there are many considerations that come into effect: timeline, budget and the cohesion of the teams, to name a few. Another crucial aspect to consider is the competency of the team. A team’s ability to demonstrate its expertise mitigates risk and provides the client with an added sense of security. Knowing that the technology with which a team works is truly in its wheelhouse ensures challenges will be addressed quickly and efficiently.
We achieved our status as an IBM Premier Business Partner by holding a number of IBM certifications in both technical and sales functions. These certifications are a clear demonstration of our team’s dedication to continuous self-improvement, IBM, and, most importantly, our clients. As a whole, the IBM team has a total of 122 years of experience, averaging out to 13.6 years of experience per team member. That depth of knowledge is matched only by the breadth of capability of the 73 IBM certifications earned by Briteskies.
Listed below are the certifications the Briteskies IBM team has earned in order to bring the best solutions to our clients.
