Uncover Opportunities to Capture More
Stimulus Dollars
Thanks to the passage of the American Recovery and
Investment Act of 2009, commonly known as the Economic
Stimulus Bill, $60-$80 billion in government funding
is now available for public-sector technology purchases.
To help you take advantage of this historic opportunity,
Ingram Micro has created IMStimulus, a complete service
program that includes business intelligence, lead generation
and comprehensive grant services.
Because the IT portion of the stimulus package is split
approximately 60/40 between appropriated budgets and
grants, IMStimulus comprises two parts: IMGrants, which
tracks grant opportunities, and a separate tracking
program for non-grant opportunities. Between the two,
our customers are connected to all available IT stimulus
dollars, allowing them to compete for and win a larger
share of funds to drive sales in the broadband, education,
energy, healthcare, infrastructure and public safety
markets.

How the Program Works
Support for IMGrants is provided through Ingram Micro's
industry-leading business intelligence group, as well
as through our partnership with Rochester, N.Y.-based
Grants Office, a leader in grants intelligence.
Solution providers sign up for the program by purchasing
a SKU for each of their sales representatives who will
be participating. Ingram Micro generates a scrubbed
list of high-potential customers who have purchased
from the solution provider in the last year, along with
a technology sheet suggesting possible technology solutions
for those customers. The list is then sent to Grants
Office, which matches each customer with available grants
and works with the solution provider to determine how
to proceed. Solution providers who go on to win bids
and fulfill the purchase orders through Ingram Micro
are eligible to receive credit for the cost of the original
program SKU.
