IBM Corp. announced Friday that it has closed on its $1.4 billion purchase of Sterling Commerce, a software company. The Dublin, Ohio-based business expands IBM's ability to help clients accelerate their interactions with customers, partners and suppliers through dynamic business networks using either on-premise or cloud delivery models.
Sterling Commerce provides software for cross-channel commerce and integration of customer, partner and supplier networks across a wide range of industries. The combination of IBM and Sterling Commerce enables the integration of key business processes across channels and among trading partners, from marketing and selling to order management and fulfillment, the companies said.
"We now offer a complete platform for multi-enterprise business transactions," said Craig Hayman, general manager, IBM Industry Solutions. "In combination with IBM’s existing offerings, Sterling Commerce, Coremetrics and Unica are expanding IBM's ability to help companies automate, manage and accelerate core business processes across marketing, selling, order management and fulfillment." IBM, which is based in Armonk, N.Y., announced an agreement to purchase Sterling from AT&T Inc. on May 24.
