Discovering Partners and Offerings to Meet your Business Needs

The Intel® Solutions Marketplace is an advanced online platform to drive collaboration in a new data-centric landscape. Here you can research and view thousands of partner offerings, including Intel® IoT Market Ready Solutions, artificial intelligence, autonomous technology, data center, and much more to innovate, go to market, and grow your business.

Intel® Partner Alliance members in Gold or Titanium tiers become eligible to have a storefront and post offerings, network, and co-create with peer members, differentiate their offerings, and showcase them to enterprise end customers.

The Intel® Solutions Marketplace helps facilitate better collaboration between peer partners, helping you focus on desired outcomes, and delivering customization. It’s equipped with powerful capabilities that enable you to connect with a global network to jointly deliver innovative data-centric solutions to the marketplace.

The Intel® Solutions Marketplace homepage serves as the starting point of your journey in connecting with partners and finding offerings that meet your business needs.

Get started by:

• Inserting a search term in the search bar to launch Intel’s search experience where you’ll be able to further refine your results using filters to quickly find Intel® Partner Alliance partners and offerings that meet your needs.
• Reviewing Featured Offerings that align to strategic initiatives, including Intel® IoT Market Ready Solutions, Intel® IoT RFP Kits, and Intel® Select Solutions.
• Viewing and learning more about specific Intel® partners and offerings showcased on the Intel® Events and Campaigns section.
• Selecting conveniently displayed links to view offerings by category, application, or industry, and partners by role, industry, or market segment.
• Using Quick Search to view a smaller set of results that you can further filter in the Intel® Solutions Marketplace Offering Catalog.

The Intel® Solutions Marketplace displays partner and offering information using two main areas of focus: The Partner Directory and Offering Catalog.

The Intel® Solutions Marketplace Partner Directory is Intel’s network of trusted partners and collaborators who are members of the Intel® Partner Alliance. As you search, you will find partners categorized by partner business types or roles, such as manufacturer, distributor, solution, software, or service providers. You can also search partners by specialty, market segment, application, or industry. Use filters to further refine your results.

The Intel® Solutions Marketplace Offering Catalog promotes products, services, and solutions our partners build with Intel® technologies. This is one way you can discover and connect with partners and their offerings.

Offerings and partner details are entered and maintained by the partners themselves, who are encouraged to keep offerings and storefronts up to date so that Intel® Solutions Marketplace users get the latest and most relevant information available.

Search results in the offering catalog and the partner directory display information using Partner Cards and Offering Cards. They include Quick View links at the bottom of the cards. Here you can view additional information about offerings and partners, and access links to Offering Detail pages and Storefronts. You can also use the Compare feature to analyze offerings’ technical specifications in the same category.

When you’ve found a partner or offering of interest, you can use the Offering Card in the Offering Catalog or the Partner Card in the Partner Directory to connect with the partner:

• Offering Card: select the Quick View button at the bottom of the Offering Card to review additional information about the partner. Here you can select the Contact Partner button, which will display a drop-down menu to Ask a Question or Request a Quote. Fill out the appropriate form and select Submit.
• Partner Card: select the Contact Partner button at the bottom of the Partner Card to Ask a Question. Fill out the form and select Submit.
• The partner then receives a notification you’ve submitted an inquiry and will reach out to you using the contact details you provided.

NOTE: An Offering Card or Partner Card that does not contain a Contact Partner button means the partner is unable to respond to inquiries.

Let’s look at an example of how easy it is to connect and collaborate with partners and learn about their offerings using the Intel® Solutions Marketplace:

You may be in the retail industry searching for digital signage solutions for your store. You have a general need to use digital signage to direct customers to specific products, upsell items, provide directions to restrooms, or give emergency information.

In this case, you can quickly find a broad set of digital signage offerings and partners to perform research and find products and solutions that meet your business needs.

Or, your retail store may be looking to take digital signage to the next level by implementing artificial intelligence to learn and interact in a way that is unique to every individual, such as recognizing customers and greeting them, and communicating what’s on sale based on their individual purchasing histories.

To obtain this level of granularity, use filters in the offering catalog and partner directory to view more refined results.

You can then review and research partner and offering information using the Partner Card, Offering Card, and Quick View Card located on the Offering Catalog and Partner Catalog search results. The Contact Partner button located at the bottom of the Quick View Card makes it easy to Ask a Question or Request a Quote from the partner.

You’ll be on your way to connecting and collaborating with partners quickly and easily using the Intel® Solutions Marketplace’s streamlined design that allows you to accelerate your go-to-market strategies, innovate your data-centric solutions, and grow your business.
