Partner with VSHN on the Application Catalog
You bring the customer relationship and project expertise: architecture consulting, application integration, data migration, compliance advisory. VSHN brings 24/7 managed operations for 15+ open-source services, Swiss data residency, and SLAs up to 99.99%. Together you deliver a full managed stack without either side building capabilities you don't have.
Why this works
VSHN is not a consulting company. 86% of our revenue is recurring monthly operations. We don't compete with your project business. You deliver the transformation, we keep the lights on.
- No competition: VSHN sells standardized operations, not consulting engagements
- Recurring value: Your customer stays on VSHN operations, and you stay the trusted advisor
- Full stack: Databases, identity, secrets, platform, and AI/ML services, all operated by one team
How we collaborate
Lead Partner model. For each project, one of us is the customer's single point of contact. Who leads depends on the project, agreed per engagement. The Lead Partner drives the project, handles invoicing, and owns first-level support.
Joint delivery. You handle consulting, integration, and project management. VSHN handles infrastructure operations, monitoring, backups, and SLA. Roles are agreed per engagement, not locked into a rigid structure.
Flexible billing. Invoice the customer together or separately, agreed per project. Both models are supported: each party invoices their share directly, or one party invoices the full amount and redistributes.
Protected relationships. No undercutting. Your customer stays your customer. Existing relationships are respected on both sides, with contractual protections for both parties.
