World Wide Technology, Inc. (WWT), a market-leading systems integrator
that provides innovative technology and supply chain solutions,
announced today it has been named to the 2014 Solution Provider 500
(SP500) list by The Channel Company’s CRN.
The list ranks the top revenue-generating technology integrators in the
U.S. and Canada whose forward-thinking approach to the channel has
helped them evolve and thrive in today’s cloud and services-driven IT
era. The list spans eight categories from hardware and software sales,
to managed IT services. WWT placed 12th in the annual ranking, up one
spot from last year.
“We are pleased to be recognized by CRN and named to the 2014 SP500
list,” said Bob Olwig, vice president of business strategy and
innovation with WWT. “With deep technical expertise and powerful
long-standing strategic partnerships, WWT is well positioned for
continued channel growth and success in developing innovative solutions
that address service-delivery challenges for our customers and allow
them to take advantage of cloud, Big Data, IT as a Service (ITaaS) and
more to lower costs and drive strategic decision-making.”
Revenue size is determined by the amount of annual products and services
sold over the course of 2013. Companies with no public documentation
were required to submit a notarized affidavit attesting to their 2013
revenue.
“The annual Solution Provider 500 represents those companies that truly
understand the needs of customers today as the IT landscape evolves,”
said Robert Faletra, CEO, The Channel Company. “With so many options,
this list has become an invaluable resource for vendors working hard to
navigate the solution provider community and identify the best partner
for their business. We congratulate the featured solution providers and
look forward to covering their continued success.”
