Partners — Reseller / SIer programme
We build the math; you bring the channel, integration capacity, and customer trust. Close one deal and earn margin every renewal year for as long as the customer keeps running it in production. A proposition built for SIers.
COBOL → Java migration replatforms the entire execution environment — job scheduling, storage, CI/CD, audit, database. Value layers on top of SlimeNENC’s bit-exact conversion expand dramatically — a massive opportunity for SIers.
The economics
| Buy-in margin | Substantial discount from public list price. Concrete tier shared post-NDA. |
|---|---|
| Annual runtime margin | Same margin applies every renewal year — as long as the customer runs it in production. |
| End-user direct | 30% off, FAQ-only support. Designed to route integration-heavy customers to partners. |
| Public list prices | PSDP pricing · SlimeNENC pricing |
| Tier criteria | Annual volume commit, geographic exclusivity, integration / training depth. |
Why this works for a SIer
Recurring annual subscription
Not a first-year-only sale. Margin applies every renewal year as long as the customer keeps running it in production. Predictable recurring revenue with no net-new selling motion.
Direct sales intentionally limited
End-user direct is 30% off but FAQ-only support. Customers needing production hardening, audit integration, or compliance work are steered to partners.
Global reach, no lock-in
No regional product variants, no production lock-in. A partner in Tokyo, Frankfurt, or Singapore delivers the same product to the same customer.
Stackable across both products
Every SlimeNENC migration is a natural PSDP candidate. SlimeNENC customers pay no extra buy-in to enable PSDP — partner margin still applies to the runtime, every year.
