Sure I can get the source and build myself but I try to persuade the local sysadmin to do his job but he can only install. He does not know how to build.
Fine. You do the build, and he can do the install. Do a local install to a directory of your own, without root, for each module:
export PERL5LIB=/home/me/myperl/lib perl Makefile.PL LIB=/home/me/myperl/lib PREFIX=/home/me/myperl make make test make install
Zip up the entire myperl directory and give it to your admin. As an alternative, bundle your application as one or more executables with PAR.
Besdies we want the warm feeling of "approved by IBM"
That's more tricky. You really need to get IBM to build and certify the modules. An awful lot depends on their ability and willingness to support Perl, even to paying clients. There could be issues with modules that come with NO WARRANTY disclaimers.

My friends all rate Windows, I must disagree.
Your powers of persuasion will set them all free,
So oh Lord, won’t you burn me a Knoppix CD ?
