Datacentrix, a provider of high performing and secure ICT solutions, has been honoured with the 'Huawei Energy Partner of the Year' award.

Datacentrix, which attained its certification as Huawei Gold Partner late last year, has also earned its status as a Certified Service Partner with a specialisation in network energy, covering the full range of Huawei's network energy solutions. This certification, where Datacentrix has qualified at 5-star level, played a significant role in the company being awarded the title of Huawei Energy Partner of the Year.

Linda Razzino, channel service manager, Huawei Enterprise Business Group, says: "Huawei provides a full range of network energy solutions. This includes telecom energy, data centre energy, BMP&CP (board mounted power, customised power), inverters and uninterrupted power supplies (UPSes). Rating levels are based on the types of certification, where 3-star is entry level and 5-star denotes high level expertise. In order to reach the 5-star ranking, Datacentrix had to certify for 3, 4 and 5-star level requirements."

Brian Lendrum, Datacentrix's business unit manager - Huawei Advanced Infrastructure, Commercial, says: "Datacentrix's 5-star certification played a major role in the granting of this award from Huawei. The fact that we now have six trained and certified UPS engineers within our services team was also an important element."

Razzino adds: "Datacentrix beat out eight other local network energy specialists to take the title of Energy Partner of the Year based on its standing as a Huawei Gold Partner for Sales, as well as for its Network Energy field certifications."

Lendrum concludes: "Datacentrix is extremely pleased and proud to further our long-standing relationship with Huawei Enterprise through this acknowledgement. The award, together with our gold level partnership status, is the latest landmark in our joint striving towards satisfied, connected clients."
