The global partner recognition programme is designed to acknowledge SAP partners who have excelled in developing their partnership and mutual business with SAP by providing quality products, solutions and services to customers. CIBER UK won the SAP Pinnacle Reseller of the Year Award for the EMEA NEWS region (European, Middle East, and Asia Region - Northern European Western Section). Donna Troy, Senior Vice President of SAP Global SMB, presented the award to Gary Springall, Managing Director of CIBER UK.

The 2006 winners were selected from a series of nominations by partners and SAP employees, and were commended for their significant contribution to sales and marketing and for their development and innovation in specific areas.

Ciaran Rafferty, Director and General Manager, SME, SAP UK and Ireland, supported the CIBER nomination. "CIBER was one of the first channel partners in EMEA to join the All-in-One programme and has demonstrated the great success of these solutions for small and medium-sized business. They have also proved that the All-in-One model can scale well into the upper mid-market, through some landmark contracts in multi-national customers," Rafferty said. "Now they are making significant investment in All-in-One solutions for additional new sectors -- such as media -- to extend this success. Working with SAP, CIBER has collaborated effectively with our territory sales executives in the UK, and grown their business with SAP by 168% last year. This ongoing commitment to SAP and their resulting achievements makes CIBER fully deserving of this award."

Gary Springall, Managing Director, CIBER UK said, "We recognised very early on that the All-in-One programme was crucial to making mySAP Business Suite accessible and affordable to more small- and medium-size organisations. Our UK management team, led by Alan Miller and Paul Cusworth, has worked very hard to develop the SAP relationship in the UK to maximise these opportunities. Having proved the model in a number of industry sectors, we are now looking to extend this success into additional markets. As well as offering the SME market with highly functional solutions based upon the world class functionality of SAP software, the All-in-One solutions have major appeal to the larger organisation looking to roll-out a solution on a worldwide basis. CIBER, with its global delivery capability, is also well positioned to offer this."
