Here, you’ll find the essential resources to onboard and integrate your services with Kyndryl Bridge in a structured and seamless manner
The Kyndryl Partner Integration approach focuses specifically on the onboarding process for partners who are integrating their own branded services into Kyndryl Bridge’s ecosystem. This differs from standard Kyndryl service onboarding and third-party integrations, as it follows a structured framework tailored to partner services that will be integrated within the Kyndryl-branded service experience.
Key differences:
Rather than a general roadmap for all service integrations, Partner Integration ensures that third-party solutions are onboarded to Kyndryl Bridge:
Align with Kyndryl’s branding, governance, and taxonomy
Embed directly into the Kyndryl Bridge Service Catalog
Follow structured provisioning models and engagement rules set by Kyndryl
This distinction ensures clarity between Kyndryl partner service onboarding and other general integrations documented separately.
Partner onboarding framework
Partner onboarding follows a phased adoption model, ensuring services progress through well-defined milestones before reaching strategic co-innovation.
