Bytes Systems Integration (SI) has once again been recognised for its partner excellence, with the company winning yet another award at the recent Alcatel-Lucent Partner Conference in Panama City, Panama.

The Alcatel-Lucent Excellence Partner Award EMEA for 2013 was awarded to Bytes SI as a way of recognising the company’s accomplishments as an Alcatel-Lucent partner.

Alcatel-Lucent is at the forefront of global communications, providing products and innovations in IP and cloud networking, as well as ultra-broadband fixed and wireless access.

According to Leslie Cawood, Bytes SI’s Alcatel-Lucent vendor and sales manager, the company won the award based on a number of considerations. These included sales and services, vendor management, logistics and customer
service and marketing.

“This award clearly validates the strength of the Bytes SI and Alcatel-Lucent relationship. It’s simply a tangible demonstration of the kind of trusted partnership our two organisations have,” says Cawood.

Partner excellence for Bytes SI, he adds, is built on consistently meeting the requirements of the Alcatel-Lucent business plan, as well as the training requirements and developing the requisite skill levels. In addition, the company
grows the partnership by unfailingly meeting the business objectives within the relevant product lines and through consistent growth within the wireless and data space.

“An award of this nature will also give our customers even more confidence in utilising our services as an Alcatel-Lucent partner. Furthermore, this will have a knock-on effect in terms of wallet share in other business lines, as it
demonstrates the trust vendors have in our skills in delivering their product lines into our own customer base.”

“We are really pleased to have received this award, as it is a definite indication that all our hard work in this arena is paying off. It is always great to be part of a winning team and, more crucially, to be recognised by our partners as
such,” he concludes.
