HP-Cisco Alliance
Was Cooperation a Win-Win?
HP & Cisco were first & third largest Silicon Valley companies
Two partners did not agree with details of the business terms;
further, the people involved & BU priorities had changed
There was difficulty in convincing the sales force that kept asking
why they should care about another company (i.e., partner)
Alliance teams had no formal authority over other units; hence, their
jobs were very demanding, time-consuming & sensitive. Teams had
to work mainly by laboriously building trust in other units
For Cisco, partner organization should commit at CEO & SVP level as
well as at the alliance team level, with accountability at both SVP &
team levels
For both HP & Cisco, developing a business plan & metrics were
critical to the success of the strategic alliance
Partners had 3 ways of joint operations: ‘sell to’ (or direct sales),
‘sell through’ (or sales through resellers) & ‘sell with’ (or selling
together)
