The general manager of IBM Global Financing (IBM GF) has called
on business leaders to link their funding strategies with the
infrastructure demands of the 21st century.
In a letter to all IBM business partners, John Callies, IBM GF’s
general manager, said that investing in new infrastructure can help
to prepare businesses to make the most of new opportunities when
world economies inevitably improve.

“Despite this momentary setback in our financial markets,” said
Callies, “companies must make critical decisions to plan, invest,
manage and eventually retire their infrastructure assets if they
hope to survive this crisis over the long-haul.”
IBM outlined three critical requirements needed to meet the
requirements of a 21st century infrastructure: (1) the ability to
integrate all of a company’s digital and physical infrastructures;
(2) the capacity to store, manage and analyse massive amounts of
data; and (3) the means to reduce inefficiencies in business
processes, technology and costs.
“Enterprises interested in their long-term survival must chart a
course towards dynamic infrastructure solutions and model a funding
strategy to get them there,” Callies added.
