Dimension Data wins four Compaq SA awards

Johannesburg, 20 Feb 2001

Dimension won four awards at last week`s Compaq SA channel achiever awards ceremony, highlighting the group`s service and sales excellence within the enterprise market.

Dimension Data was chosen as storage reseller of the year, and was commended for outstanding sales performance. Individuals within the group also excelled with Ronald van Staden being selected as a sales Compaq champion, and Frans Nijeboer being chosen as a product manager Compaq champion.

"These awards underscore our capability to supply a complete range of services on all Compaq equipment throughout South Africa," says Richard Blewitt, business unit manager Enterprise Systems at Dimension Data.

"In the year under review, we exceeded our Compaq product sales target by over 50 percent," he says. "Sales to a leading cellular service provider, a major insurer and a financial services provider, contributed to our figures."

Dimension Data recently boosted its service offerings within the enterprise environment by meeting the stringent conditions required to become an accredited Compaq Authorised Service Provider (ASP) for the Commercial, Intel and StorageWorks sub-accreditations.

By leveraging the services based around Dimension Data`s unique Global Services Operating Architecture (GSOA), the group can provide corporate Compaq users with unmatched proactive maintenance and support services.
