ScanSource Rolls Out New Service Through Its Partner Services Group
ScanSource, Inc., {Nasdaq: SCSC}, the leading international value-added distributor of specialty technology products, has enhanced its Partner Services offering with the addition of Rollouts, Inc., a leading provider of on-site support and project management for company rollouts.
Through its Partner Services Group, ScanSource will match its reseller partners with Rollouts, Inc., to handle their end-user systems installations throughout North America. Rollouts handles all aspects of an end-user's installation, including scheduling, deployment, and management of field service technicians. In addition, the reseller pays a single per-site or per-device fee. This arrangement will allow resellers to complete installations more quickly, give them greater geographic reach, and help them manage peak demand on a variable cost basis.
"We're excited to add yet another valuable offering through our Partner Services Group," said Peter O'Brien, vice president of Partner Services for ScanSource, Inc. "Rollouts, Inc., will enable our solution providers to offer additional valuable professional services to their end-user customers at an appealing price point. They bring great expertise and efficiency to the solution, which benefits the reseller and their customer."
"Our partnership with ScanSource's Partner Services Group will allow resellers to dramatically reduce the time it takes for a multi-site rollout," said Reed Moormeier, president and CEO of Rollouts, Inc. "Resellers will be able to cover geographic areas they may not have had access to in the past. We believe the services provided by the Partner Services Group and Rollouts will enable the reseller to offer more value and additional services to their customers."
The mission of the Partner Services Group is to act as an extension of its partners' businesses by providing innovative programs and support services that allow solution providers to spend less time on behind-the-scenes activities and more time identifying and closing sales opportunities. ScanSource offers system integration, marketing support, professional services, education and training, and E-commerce solutions.
