Q1: What is Mehen's official definition of an OEM?
Mehen defines an OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) as an entity or organization that integrates a customized or embedded Mehen product in its own unique solution for sale to its customers. The proof of this concept is that the Mehen product must be significantly transformed. The OEM Partner primarily uses its own company logo and brand name on its solution and it markets, sells and provides technical and warranty support directly to its customers.

Q2: What are the key differences between a Traditional VAR business model and an OEM model?
A traditional VAR (Value-Added Reseller) will typically load a proprietary application and/or incorporate Third Party options and resell the product under the MEHEN brand name to their customer base. An OEM will significantly transform the Mehen Product and resell the bundled or embedded product as their own solution under their brand name. The OEM seller can add their own Concept and Technology/Patent onto the Mehen's original products. Of course Mehen cannot use any of their own Concept and Technology/Patent.
