Avnet Partner Solutions has taken on the role of
distribution partner for Alcatel in a deal which will see the company deliver
Alcatel IP networking solutions Australia-wide.
Avnet will distribute the OmniSwitch, OmniStack and
OmniAccess products. The two will kick off the new relationship with a
marketing campaign aimed at getting resellers accustomed to the new arrangements.
"Key priorities for Avnet and Alcatel will be to explain the
benefits of the new relationship to existing channel partners and add new
resellers and integrators to the roster," said Colin McKenna, Vice President of
Avnet Partner Solutions.
Mike Stein, country manager for Alcatel enterprise
activities, praised Avnet's expertise and efficient operations saying the two
combined "will deliver even more value to both existing and new resellers in Australia".
Under this new arrangement, Alcatel partners and their
customers will benefit from reduced delivery times for new products and from
having more in-country stock, said Stein. In the future we are looking at ways
to improve spares and advance replacement parts availability for distribution,"
he added.
