Is it possible to add acronyms to a bibTeX file?

I have a bibTeX entry that looks like the following when printed with natbib:enter image description here

And when used within the text it looks like: enter image description here

I would like it to show IBM [2011] and it could look the same in the references print or something like International Business Machines (IBM). etc...

My current entry looks like:

@webpage{International-Business-Machines:2011aa,
    Author = {{International Business Machines}},
    Month = {February},
    Title = {{Common Public License}},
    Url = {http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/library/os-cpl.html},
    Year = {2011}}

I don't have a solution for natbib. With biblatex, you may you use the shortauthor field -- see this question. – lockstep Feb 22 '11 at 21:39
