Dimension Data Wins Golden Bridge Award for Innovation in Information Technology

Global IT Service Provider’s Adoption Management Program (AMP) Recognized for “Best Unified Communications Service”

NEW YORK--()--Dimension Data, the $4.7 billion global ICT services and solutions provider, today announced its recognition at the third annual Golden Bridge Awards for its Adoption Management Program (AMP), in the “Best Unified Communications Service” category. Dimension Data’s AMP offering is a comprehensive change management service that helps organizations to maximize the return on their technology investments – such as unified communications and telepresence – by driving internal awareness and increasing end-user adoption of the solutions.

“One of the biggest roadblocks to the success of emerging technologies, such as unified communications, within today’s enterprises is the lack of adoption among employees. This award is further testament to Dimension Data’s commitment to helping enterprise clients get the most out of their technology investments through an end-to-end strategic adoption roadmap that assesses specific requirements and promotes awareness, understanding and ultimately usage,” said Mitchell Hershkowitz, national practice manager of consulting, Dimension Data Americas.

Dimension Data’s AMP leverages the best practices it developed during the company’s own rollout of unified communications and collaboration technologies across its Americas offices, spanning 21 locations with more than 1,000 employees – which resulted in a 95% user adoption rate in just two months. Based on the dramatic success of this deployment, Dimension Data developed the AMP methodology, which is now helping clients worldwide to realize the full potential of their technology investments.

The annual Golden Bridge Awards program encompasses the world’s best in organizational performance, products and services, executives and management teams, women in business and the professions, innovations, case studies, product management, public relations and marketing campaigns and customer satisfaction programs from every major industry in the world. Organizations from all over the world submit nominations, including public and private, for-profit and non-profit, large and small companies, and start-ups. Winners were honored in New York on Wednesday, August 10, 2011.
