Progress is the QAD Technology Partner of the Year 2015

Progress was announced as the QAD Technology Partner of the Year for 2015 at its Explore 2015 conference in Washington, DC. This marks the second time in a row we have won this distinguished honor. The Technology Partner of the Year award “recognizes the outstanding contributions made to QAD’s success by our technology partner community.”

QAD a Progress Elite Application Partner

QAD is a leading provider of enterprise software and services for global manufacturing companies. QAD enterprise resource planning (ERP) solutions power global manufacturers in the industrial, life sciences, food and beverage and consumer products industries, but QAD may be most familiar as a leading automotive industry supplier. Name a part inside an automobile, and it is likely manufactured by a QAD customer.

In business for 35 years, QAD has been a Progress Elite Application and Independent Software Vendor (ISV) Partner for over 25 of them. QAD Enterprise Applications allow manufacturers to operate factories in several different geographies seamlessly—rolling up inventory, rules, regulations and financials within a single application instance. This competitive market advantage is part of what QAD calls enabling the Effective Enterprise, and is available on premise, in the cloud or in a blended environment.

Progress Partners to Deliver Effective Enterprise Technology

The QAD Effective Enterprise mission is to deliver technologies to manufacturers that improve efficiency, simplicity and usability while reducing risk and effort. Carter Lloyds, QAD’s Chief Marketing Officer, said, “QAD and Progress have been partners for over two decades. We wish to recognize their outstanding technical cooperation and strategy alignment. We are pleased that Progress continues to innovate, through their own R&D and through their strategic acquisitions. Our mutual commitment to QAD’s customers continues to be the highest priority for ensuring our customers’ success.”

Other QAD partner award winners included Broom Street Software as Solution Partner of the Year, PwC Canada as Consulting Partner of the Year and ViaWest as Cloud Partner of the Year. Congratulations to our fellow winners.
