01
Advisory
Strategy, architecture, assessments, and roadmaps. Enter at the CIO, CAIO, or CTO conversation — before the software decision is frozen.
Talk to an architect →Services
Four ways to engage. One IBM-native firm.
Advisory, implementation, co-delivery with IBM, and managed services — with software licensing in the same partner. A customer should not have to infer the commercial model from product pages.
02
Implementation
Platform deployment, modernization, and integration. Cloud Paks, ACE, DataPower, watsonx, BAW — built to run in production, not as a lab exhibit.
Modernize a platform →03
Co-delivery with IBM
Joint engagements with IBM technical teams and Expert Labs. Guild brings account context, architecture, and accelerators; IBM brings product depth where the work needs it.
Explore a joint engagement →04
Managed services
Day-2 for Cloud Paks and OpenShift: patching, health checks, capacity, incident support, and root-cause analysis with named engineers.
Discuss operations →Software & licensing
IBM software sourcing, Passport Advantage hygiene, sub-capacity / ILMT, audit readiness, and renewals — in the same partner that implements the stack.
Architecture
The Guild enterprise technology stack.
One picture of how Guild enters an account: outcomes at the top, IBM at the foundation, and architecture, governance, implementation, and operations running through every layer.

Integrate & automate
The bus, the gateway, and the APIs that still have to work on Monday.
App Connect · MQ · DataPower · API Connect
Integration & automation
Guild Systems designs and implements IBM integration and business automation — from App Connect Enterprise, IBM MQ, and DataPower to BAW, RPA, and API Connect — so applications, partners, and gateways operate as one governed system.
Open practiceIBM MQ · Event Streams · ACE
Messaging
Mission-critical estates still run on IBM MQ. We implement, upgrade, and modernize queue managers, and we extend that reliability into Event Streams and API Connect when the architecture needs streaming or governed APIs.
Open practiceCloud, data & AI
OpenShift, watsonx, and governed agents on the IBM cloud estate.
Cloud Paks · OpenShift · IBM Cloud
Hybrid cloud
Cloud Paks on Red Hat OpenShift give IBM middleware a consistent runtime across on-prem, private, and public cloud. We design the architecture, migrate the workloads, and stay for Day-2 operations.
Open practicewatsonx.ai · watsonx.data · watsonx.governance · IBM Bob
watsonx & data / AI
watsonx is three products that have to work together: watsonx.ai for models, watsonx.data for a governed lakehouse, and watsonx.governance for risk — with IBM Bob on the same estate when the work is code. We implement the platform against production use cases in regulated industries.
Open practiceAEGIS · ControlPlane · Orchestrate
Agentic AI
Building the agent is not the hard part. Controlling what it can do is. Guild AEGIS — AI Enterprise Governance & Intelligence System — and Project Guild ControlPlane are how we implement that: watsonx Orchestrate, watsonx.governance, OpenPages, Instana, and Turbonomic as one control plane for identity, authorization, policy, human approval, cost, and evidence.
Open practiceOperate & protect
Instana, Guardium, and quantum-safe cryptography on the estate you already run.
Instana · Turbonomic · Concert
Observability & AIOps
IBM Instana maps the application. Turbonomic matches resources to demand. Causal AI — Instana’s Root Cause Identification, documented with IBM Research — is how the platform tells an SRE the root cause instead of a correlated symptom. We implement that closed loop.
Open practiceQRadar · Guardium · Verify · OpenPages
Security
Threat detection, data protection, identity, endpoints, and GRC are five IBM products that only work as a program. We deploy and tune them against NIST, PCI DSS, HIPAA, SOX, GDPR, and the frameworks your auditors already use.
Open practiceCrypto inventory · PQC · IBM Quantum where it is real
Quantum Security
NIST has published post-quantum standards. Harvest-now, decrypt-later is a present risk for long-lived data. Guild inventories TLS, signing, gateways, and PKI on the IBM estate, ranks exposure, and migrates to quantum-safe algorithms — without pretending every workload is an IBM Quantum workload.
Open practiceEnvironmental Intelligence Suite
Sustainability
Sustainability reporting is no longer a PDF exercise. SEC climate rules, EU CSRD, and California SB 253 / SB 261 need audit-ready data. We implement IBM Environmental Intelligence Suite against GHG Protocol, with the same data discipline we use on watsonx and OpenPages.
Open practiceNot sure which motion you need?
Architecture review, scoped implementation, joint IBM engagement, or a licensing assessment — we will tell you which one it is.
