Key Challenges
Customer IT teams may not have enough in-house expertise who understand TIBCO product configuration in depth
Customer IT teams may not have bandwidth to do TIBCO product installations or new environment setup as this may not be part of their typical day to day work

27. Wise Men Confidential
Key Challenges
Customers need a partner who can provide them quality services which are measurable and paid by the SLAs instead of paying for time and not be accountable for the results.
Customer’s IT departments want to focus their energy on certain aspects of IT such as cutting edge development serving core business areas and leave the rest to a partner who provide end to end services
It may not be cost effective for the IT teams to have a team of resources with deep expertise in variety of TIBCO products
It may also not be cost effective for the IT teams to hire employees for a sudden demand in work which may be one-time, short-lived, or unpredictable
Knowledge sharing, knowledge retention and process maturity are the key aspects customers require in house as well as from the partners which are seldom available
27
28. Wise Men Confidential
