180 View – There are some interesting statistics in the slides including IBM has 25,000 software developers building and maintain IBM’s software portfolio.

Per their website, “We work with leading companies around the world such as Oracle, SAP, Infor, and Lawson Software to deliver end-to-end, cost-effective solutions that are tailored to the unique needs of each industry. Our experience and methodology include strategy, planning, infrastructure and technical support.”
