See the following links for more information on the process changes:

For new contact number information, use the Directory of worldwide contacts as well as information for interacting with Support, see the IBM Support Handbook. (If you need to reference process information for an ongoing contract from Sterling Commerce, the Customer Support Reference Guide is still available. Note the contact information only applies for SaaS support.)

The FAQ and Process document also has information on where to find downloads for install as well as maintenance packages for both IBM release versions of the software as well as legacy Sterling Commerce versions.
