SAN MATEO, Calif.: #GuidewireMarketplace--Guidewire (NYSE: GWRE) unveiled changes to its PartnerConnect program and new technology innovations, enabling insurers to transform their systems, better serve customers, and accelerate growth.
In addition, new partners, Guidewire Marketplace updates, and several specialization achievements in its PartnerConnect ecosystem were announced.
Enhanced PartnerConnect Program
Guidewire has made enhancements to its PartnerConnect program composed of Consulting and Technology (formerly Solution) partners.
Guidewire enhanced its industry-leading PartnerConnect Consulting program and ecosystem in a move that will help expand partners’ delivery quality and skills, and recognize their global reach and expansion. The enhancement signals the program’s continued growth and Guidewire’s commitment to serving insurers on their digital transformation journeys. PartnerConnect provides the framework for Consulting partners to drive implementation and services, business transformation and change management.
The Consulting program will continue to encompass three levels: Select, Advantage, and the top Global level, which now consists of Premier and Strategic categories.
“Global Premier partners have made significant investment in Guidewire, showcasing exceptional sales, implementation portfolios and relationships that meet the highest requirements of our customers,” said Lisa Walsh, Group Vice President, Global Consulting Alliances. “Global Strategic encompasses rigorous new metrics and recognizes Consulting partners’ global expansion, reach and growth in their Guidewire practices and alignment with Guidewire objectives in serving mutual customers in growth regions worldwide. The Advantage and Select partners provide specific skills, including language expertise, that other customers often require.”
Three partners have achieved Global Strategic: Capgemini, EY and PwC.
In addition, Solution partners have now been designated Technology partners, signifying Guidewire’s expanding collaboration with trailblazers, innovators, and enterprises in regions across the world. The Technology Alliances program has also enhanced its tiering system, which includes Growth, Advantage, and Premier tiers, combining the Access and Select tiers into a newly designated Growth tier. The Growth tier is designed to help targeted partners establish a presence in the Guidewire partner ecosystem, build skills, and increase market traction.
"At Guidewire, we are committed to fostering an ecosystem where innovation thrives and strategic collaboration drives customer success,” said Will Murphy, Vice President, Global Technology Alliances, Guidewire. “These program changes reflect our dedication to building a robust network of collaborators who are equipped to deliver exceptional value to insurers and contribute to the evolution of our industry."
