International Business Machines (IBM) has named a Nigerian solution provider, Net Solution Limited, as the ‘Top Sales Performer’ in software category for 2005, within the IBM partners group in Central Africa Region, including sub-Saharan Africa.
Managing Director, Net Solutions, Dr. Steve Uwazie, who received the award in South Africa recently informed that it was a welcome development for his company which has already made a mark in the nation’s Information Technology (IT) industry.
He also said Net Solutions was excited for emerging winner of the award for the second time running, stressing that the award would take the firm to the next level in the challenging Nigerian IT market.
Coming on top for the second since partnering with IBM in the whole of sub-Sahara Africa, which spanned for over five years, he said, was a big feat for Net Solutions.
Uwazie, who was recently awarded a honourary doctorate degree in Business Administration at Bradley University, United States, said, that winning the Top Sales Performer award in the region would enable the company to remain relevant and more focused.
He further said, Net Solutions’ partnership with IBM has added immense value to the clientele, even as it has given boost to the Nigerian growing IT market.
“Net Solutions has finally come to stay. Even though there are challenges ahead, we have all it takes to remain relevant in the competitive Nigerian IT industry. The market is very large and this award has again elevated Net Solutions and we’re glad,” he declared.
According to him, Net Solutions has won many international awards including IBM business partner top contributor initiative 2004, partner award by Tri-Continental on eServer xSeries for 2003, Gold partner award for high PSG growth in 2003 also by Tri-Continental among others.
Before now, he said, Net Solutions has also formed strategic alliances with other global companies including Microsoft, Cisco, Veritas Software Solutions, Dell and Hewlett Packard (HP).
“This gives us access to uncommon solutions that will be applied to uncommon problems in the global village,” he declared.
