Stockholm, Sweden, November 20, 2009 — New division set to focus on storage, infrastructure and content management solutions.
International Business Systems (STO: IBS B) the leading application supplier for wholesale and distribution, announced today the formation of a new division within the group called Iptor, aimed at providing a refined focus, greater market visibility and enhanced customer service for some of its solution offerings. President of the division will be Ulf Zetterberg, formerly IBS’ Senior Vice President Nordics and ITS.
Bringing together several previously separate business units within IBS Group, the new division will focus on selling products and associated services that today are offered as add-ons to IBS Enterprise, IBS’ core business application suite for distribution. This includes offerings such as storage capacity, technical infrastructure, content management and systems integration services and the division will operate globally.
“IBS has long been considered a leading specialist in core business applications for wholesale distribution companies, but in fact we also offer a significant range of other services and solutions to our customers as well”, says Mike Shinya, CEO and President of IBS. “These offerings have historically not received the attention and credit they deserve, and by forming this new division under Ulf’s leadership, our ability to serve the full range of our solutions to our customers will be significantly enhanced”.
“We see a growing demand for our solutions and services and the foundation of Iptor allows us to continue to deliver solutions with the IBS group at the same time that we also can continue to develop and focus on our own customers outside the traditional IBS ecosystem”, says Ulf Zetterberg.
More information about Iptor, an IBS division, will be posted on the new web site http://www.iptor.com shortly.
