New opportunities for IBM Business Partners
Lotus Expeditor technology provides the managed client across the Lotus software portfolio, including IBM Lotus Notes, IBM Lotus Symphony and IBM Sametime. Because these software products use the same Eclipse-based programming model, applications developed for Lotus Expeditor may also be deployed on other Lotus platforms, for example Lotus Notes.

Systems integrators, independent software vendors (ISVs), resellers and OEM partners can use IBM Lotus Expeditor capabilities to help grow their business and drive innovation for their clients. Examples of IBM Business Partner opportunities include:

• Providing an integrated client desktop that integrates a wide variety of existing applications that are used in a various industry solutions.
• Integrating transactional data more quickly from remote offices or to enterprise systems - at near realtime, rather than waiting for batch data transfers.
• Providing a low-cost and near-zero maintenance infrastructure to enable local terminals and equipment to communicate with each other and with the central site.
• Providing tools for migrating Visual Basic applications to Java™ Platform, Enterprise Edition (Java EE) and Lotus Expeditor applications.
• Adding offline capability to further enhance IBM Forms solutions.
• Integrating IBM Sametime real-time collaboration capabilities into clients' line-of-business workflows.
• Adding additional capabilities — relational database in the client, transactional messaging, and mobile device support — to your applications.
