Level Platforms Voted 2006 Top Business Technology Solution
Named 2006 XChange XCellence Award Winner
Atlanta, Georgia, March 1, 2006 – LPI Level Platforms Inc. earned the 2006 XChange XCellence award in the category of Business Technology Solution today at an awards ceremony during CMP Media’s 2006 XChange Solution Provider in Atlanta, GA. Level Platforms was also nominated in the categories of Best Software Solution and Best Revenue Generator.
The XChange XCellence Awards measure overall business and technology integrator perceptions of vendor products and services during an XChange Conference. XChange attendees evaluate and score each vendor’s presentation, message and presence during the three day conference. The results are tabulated on site and awards are presented during a luncheon presentation at the conclusion of each XChange Conference.
The 2006 XChange Solution Provider XCellence Awards cover 9 key categories. Level Platforms was nominated in 3 of these 9 categories. “The XChange XCellence Award winners are selected by top solution providers at each conference and honor the vendors with the most exceptional products, programs and technologies,” said Nancy Hammervik, vice president/managing director, CMP Media’s XChange Conferences.
“Congratulations to all of the winning companies. They have demonstrated that they deliver high quality solutions and have many satisfied business partners.”
"There were more than 100 vendors at the Conference including most of the largest and most prestigious technology businesses in the world” said Peter Sandiford, CEO of Level Platforms. “In a group that includes Microsoft, IBM, Lexmark, HP, CA, SonicWALL and others, we would have been happy to have been nominated for even one of these categories. To have been nominated for three awards and chosen by attendees as Winner of the Best Business Technology Solution is a tremendous honor.”
Dan Wensley, VP Partner Development at Level Platforms noted that the award was particularly meaningful because solution providers selected the winners. “Everything we do is designed to maximize the success of our solution provider partners as they build their managed services businesses. Receiving this recognition from the solution providers themselves clearly validates our ability to deliver on our commitments to their success in the new competitive frontier of managed services”
