Meet the CRN MVPs: NEC Australia
NEC Australia MD Tetsuro Akagi

Japanese multinational NEC has been famous for many decades as a PC and electronics vendor, but the Australian arm has consciously transformed to a IT service provider in recent years.

The company has been in the headlines the past year for a large contract with Transport for NSW, ousting Dimension Data for South Australian government work, and a $150 million subcontracting deal under Lockheed Martin’s project with Department of Defence.

Top-tier partnerships with Hewlett-Packard, IBM, Citrix and Cisco saw NEC Australia get over the line as a foundation CRN MVP.


MVP vendor partnerships

  • Cisco Gold Certified Partner
  • Citrix Solution Advisor Gold
  • HP Platinum/Gold
  • IBM Premier Business Partner

 


Notes on methodology

The CRN MVP program recognises Australia's top IT providers by measuring their value and versatility based on third-party vendor accreditations across 12 eligible vendors: Amazon Web Services, Cisco, Citrix Systems, Dell, EMC, HP (incl Aruba), IBM, Intel (incl McAfee), Lenovo, Microsoft, Symantec and VMware. 

Only eligible vendors listed above. Only Gold-equivalent partner levels are included. CRN MVP companies may have accreditations with other, ineligible vendor programs or lower-level accreditations with eligible vendors (for example, we do not list silver accreditations). 

We expect the list of eligible vendors to change in coming years, which may open up the CRN MVP program to new entrants.

For further information on the CRN MVP program, see this article.

We are currently accepting expressions of interest for the 2016 CRN MVPs at www.techpartner.news/MVP. Entries will open in coming months.
