Avnet Technology Solutions, an IT solutions distributor and an operating group of Avnet Inc., has announced that Avnet Government Solutions LLC, a subsidiary focused on the U.S. public sector, has expanded its General Services Administration (GSA) schedule to include HP technology products and solutions. This will allow Avnet Government Solutions to better serve its government (federal, state, and local) and education partners, and broaden its offerings for the public sector. The addition of HP to Avnet Government Solutions’ GSA schedule gives partners access to the federal government’s largest Government-Wide Acquisition Contract (GWAC), which agencies use to purchase solutions for their IT needs, without making the investments to hold their own contract.
“This is another important step in Avnet Government Solutions’ commitment to building a complete portfolio of value-added offerings for their U.S. government customers,” says Ray Ramey, vice president and general manager of Avnet Government Solutions. “We created Avnet Government Solutions to provide our partners with a single source for all the resources they need to succeed in pursuing government IT business. The addition of HP solutions will further enable Avnet Government Solutions to help our partners profitably increase their government business.”
Launched last June as a new business to help independent software vendor (ISV), systems integrator (SI), and value-added reseller (VAR) partners capture IT market share with the U.S. government, Avnet Government Solutions focuses on the federal, state, local, and education markets.†
Avnet Government Solutions offers services to partners specifically designed to provide a comprehensive approach to pursuing federal, state, local, and education contracts, including capture assistance, compliance, and process management. Partners are also able to access additional resources to help further accelerate their capabilities in the government market. For example, they will be able to participate in Avnet GovPath, which provides education and enablement to hone their expertise on the U.S. government market using Avnet’s SolutionsPath methodology. Partners can also access other SolutionsPath practices, including those focused on the healthcare and financial markets, to expand their expertise in key vertical market opportunities within the public sector.
Avnet Government Solutions officially announces its new HP public sector offerings at the HP Global Partner Conference 2015 in Las Vegas.
