They do: www.ibm.biz

With a web search on "'IBM' 'URL shortener'" I found a link to the IBM intranet, which from the description [dated: March 22, 2012], apparently was a link to the application [available only from within IBM] that will produce a short link:
<https://w3.tap.ibm.com/tap/app/2659>

An example of such a link having been used on these lists, and its expansion, can be found here:
