NEXTGEN appointed Australian distributor of Saviynt

NEXTGEN has been appointed as an Australian distributor for identity and governance management solutions company Saviynt.

Regional systems integrators, vertical specialists, government-focused partners, and mid-market resellers will gain "streamlined" access to Saviynt’s identity platform and NEXTGEN will provide onboarding, logistics, financial services, technical labs, and demand-generation capabilities.

Saviynt University, the company's training and certification platform, will also support partners through certification programs, technical training, and role-based learning paths, enabling consistent and high-quality implementation of identity governance programs.

James Ross, regional vice president for ANZ at Saviynt, said as a channel-first organisation, Saviynt is highly reliant on its channel partners.

"NEXTGEN’s deep market understanding and strong technical skills make them a great fit both for us and our growing client base," he said.

“With digital identity at the core of modern infrastructures, this new relationship will allow faster deployment, better integration, and strong partner-led execution.”

Wendy O’Keeffe, RVP ANZ at NEXTGEN, said identity has become a critical pillar of modern cybersecurity, particularly as organisations accelerate AI adoption and face growing pressure to manage access with greater precision and confidence.

"We are highly selective about the vendors we bring into our portfolio, and Saviynt stands out as a high-growth innovator with strong market potential," she said.

"By adding Saviynt to our portfolio, we’re equipping partners across APJ with the capabilities they need to simplify identity management, strengthen governance, and help customers scale securely, while also supporting Saviynt’s continued expansion across the region.”
