What type of Definiens Evolve Partnership best fits you? The Definiens Partner Evolve Program provides a variety of options taking into account the different business orientations of a potential partner. In some cases, a partner may fulfill more than one of the roles that follow and Definiens will customize a partnership agreement accordingly.
Value Added Reseller (VAR)
Definiens Value Added Resellers build and sell their own software applications that they have built containing embedded Definiens components which address a particular market or image intelligence problem. These applications span a variety of Life and Earth Sciences applications and added value integrations.
Via a powerful program alliance, Definiens provides Value Added Resellers with a rich set of benefits, including development capabilities, training and support as well as access to marketing, sales, and technical resources. Definiens also places additional focus on joint planning and the development of mutually beneficial customer relationships.
Technology and OEM Partners
Definiens works with a number of key technology partners to develop total solutions for both departmental and enterprise business. A wide range of hardware and software technology partners work with Definiens to complement their best-in-class components with the world leading Definiens Enterprise Image Intelligence™ Suite. Definiens provides programs for embedded image intelligence capabilities for resale by Technology and OEM Partners and also for jointly supported integrations.
System Integrators (SI)/Services Providers
The System Integrator/Services Provider delivers a range of project-based services including consulting, implementation and the integration of the Definiens Enterprise Image Intelligence™ Suite. Typical System Integrator services may include project management, prime contracting of a large contract with image analysis components, bespoke rule and application development and outsourced services.
Definiens offers a range of alternatives to support the requirements of different types and sizes of SI, including access to training and development facilities, marketing, sales, and technical resources, with an additional focus on joint planning and the development of mutually beneficial customer relationships.
Marketing Partner
Marketing Partners are organizations who do not wish to sell or embed Definiens technology at this stage but have a strong joint interest in realizing the enhancement of the Enterprise Image Intelligence™ market. The collaboration is focused on strategic, economic and business aspects which help to create awareness and prospective market opportunities. A Marketing Partnership is often the first step in working towards a deeper partnering relationship.
Distributor Partner
The Distributor Partner markets and sells the Definiens Enterprise Image Intelligence™ Suite in a specifically defined geographic or vertical market. The partner has access to the full suite of products, services, support and training to build a strong base of partners and end-users. Strongly supported by distributor managers and aligned to work in concert with Definiens own direct sales teams - where necessary - these selectively targeted distributorships represent a key relationship for the Definiens field organization.
Academic Center of Excellence (ACE)
In addition to its commercial partnership models, Definiens seeks to continue its strong research heredity by maintaining strategic links with key academic institutions which are working in associated fields to exploit image intelligence. The Definiens Academic Center of Excellence (ACE) Program is a selectively targeted program providing two-way benefits for both Definiens and its associated Academic Centers of Excellence.
