More than a badge – a testament to cloud excellence
AWS Premier Partner status is a powerful endorsement of BBD’s deep technical expertise, proven customer success and dedication to innovation in the cloud. It solidifies BBD’s position as a trusted leader in delivering game-changing cloud solutions, as AWS Premier Tier Services Partners are recognised for their extensive experience, multiple AWS programme validations and demonstrated success in working with customers. BBD's notable achievements, such as its work with Cell C's MVNE platform migration and membership of the Managed Service Provider Program, highlight its significant impact in the South African cloud landscape.

AWS thoroughly vets and selects Premier Partners based on a lengthy and multi-layered process. For BBD’s clients, partnering with an AWS Premier Tier Services Partner means:

These include the Managed Service Provider Program, Cloud Operations Competency (with sub-designations in cloud governance, cloud financial management, monitoring and observability and operations management), Migration Competency, DevOps Competency, Well-Architected Program and Solution Provider Program.
“This showcases our commitment to building robust, scalable, cost-effective solutions and client practices, which are maintained with as much care as they are built,” says Werner de Jager, head of BBD Cloud Solutions. “Coupled with this, our commitment to integrate with your team and processes – as opposed to holding the keys to the castle – means that your business will be empowered by partnering with us.”
