TD SYNNEX (NYSE: SNX) has announced two new offerings, a Partner Health and Fitness tool and the Destination AI program, at its inaugural NexusDX Conference in Salt Lake City, being held August 14-16.
The data-driven Partner Health and Fitness tool provides reseller partners like MSPs, VARs, and ISVs with insights into their diversification across the TD SYNNEX portfolio. Partner Health and Fitness features a dashboard that provides partners with metrics to gauge their offerings against other TD SYNNEX partners across the technology business partner ecosystem that are also participating in high-growth areas like cloud, cybersecurity, AI and IoT, and hyperscale infrastructure. Anyone who has transacted within the NextGen or Advanced Solutions portfolio has access to their own dashboard.
Partner Health and Fitness provides partners with scores that reflect a comparison to the broader scores of TD SYNNEX’s base of partners participating in the high-growth technology segments being analyzed. Composite scores are aggregated on a bell curve, which enables the partner being assessed to see how their performance compares with the rest of the industry.
Some examples include:
- The average partner scores 58 out of 100 on the Enterprise score, covering all of advanced solutions
- The average partner scores 31 out of 100 on the NextGen score, covering high-growth technologies like cloud, security, IoT and data analytics
“Our custom algorithm looks at a multitude of factors, including volume, portfolio mix, digital transformation growth and others, to drive value to partners in through data-driven business insights that only TD SYNNEX can provide,” said said Stacy Nethercoat, executive vice president, advanced solutions, TD SYNNEX, in a press statement. “As a result, partners receive an honest assessment of their benchmark as compared to peers.”
The Partner Health and Fitness assessment is currently open to U.S. based partners, and TD SYNNEX is evaluating expansion to other regions in the Americas and in Europe.
