Supplier Evaluation & Selection

Network Allies partners with leading hardware platform and component suppliers to provide ISVs and OEMS with a broad range of products for developing and manufacturing their appliance solutions. We also continually evaluate existing and new suppliers based on technology, quality, pricing, services, and stability. By prequalifying the supply chain for you, we reduce your risk and overhead costs. With Network Allies, you are assured of bringing to market a high-quality appliance solution, backed with long-life components, motherboards, and chassis from reliable suppliers.

For our ISV customers, we first evaluate the software application and its underlying operating system, and design the optimal hardware configuration to support them. We then identify the appropriate hardware component suppliers to support your specifications. For example, we know that some suppliers may provide products that meet your technical and cost requirements; however, they may not satisfy the long-life, duty cycle and other standards. Based on our industry knowledge and partnerships with leading technology vendors, such as IBM and Intel, we select the best suppliers for your specific needs.
