At its partner kick-off meeting last week, SAP ANZ recognised its top-performing partners over the past year.
Winners were determined by a steering committee composed of regional and global SAP representatives, based on criteria such as sales achievement and performance.
The award winners were:
• Top Performing Partner for SAP Business One: Leverage Technologies
• Outstanding Innovation on HANA Cloud Platform: Approach Solutions
• Support Partnership Award: Presence of IT
• Services Partnership Award: Deloitte
• Top Performing Partner in Cloud: Presence of IT
• Overall Excellence in Partner Sales Performance: UXC Oxygen Business Solutions
• Top Performing Partner in SME Segment: Soltius New Zealand
• Outstanding Innovation in Partner Managed Cloud: Accenture Australia
• Top Performing Partner for SAP Business ByDesign: Acclimation
• Top Performing Partner in New Customer Acquisitions: DyFlex
In presenting the award for sales performance to UXC Oxygen, SAP cited the extensive number of wins the company had achieved, including an SAP S/4 HANA deal at TasNetworks that includes a number of SAP products such as SAP S/4 HANA, Concur, SAP Ariba and SAP SuccessFactors, as well as complex Partner Managed Cloud solutions.
“We have also helped customers along the road to better business outcomes with various SAP products,” said Paul Kruger, general manager of sales and marketing, UXC Oxygen.
“Our earlier investment in the SAP Hybris space was the right thing to do. We now have a large customer base in this space and this continues to grow. Our SAP Business One practice continues to win business and we had a lot of success with solutions from Concur, an SAP company.”
UXC Oxygen also recently won the SAP Hybris service delivery partner of the year award.
Acclimation managing director Rod Taubman said its award is evidence of the maturity of SAP Business ByDesign, since its introduction to Australia four years ago.
“Acclimation has been heavily investing in the new SaaS ERP for the last three years after implementing it internally, and we now have a very strong pre-sales capability, enabling us to attract several new customers that have come on board in Q4 last year, as well as maintain a strong pipeline,” Taubman said.
“It’s great to see ByDesign getting the recognition it needs as a formidable cloud ERP SaaS platform and recognition for our hard efforts and investments.”
