WESTMINSTER, CO – October 22, 2020 – USAV, a division of PSA, today announced a large expansion of their International Partner Program (IPP), by the addition of DEKOM. This addition will increase the global partnering opportunities for the USAV national integrators as well as other international integrators. USAV integrators and vendors partners have also formed a special interest group (SIG) focused on the standards of the program. The IPP creates a stronger business partnering opportunity for all members across the globe in delivering collaboration solutions. USAV aims to provide a wider network of resources and opportunities to its members through partnerships that span worldwide, supporting the member’s positions as leading technology solutions providers in the markets they serve.
The recent addition of DEKOM brings over 30 locations to the IPP with a strong presence in Germany (headquarters), Spain, Ukraine, Switzerland, the Netherlands, Belgium and France. DEKOM is one of the leading systems integrators for audiovisual communication. They help companies of all sizes and from all sectors to decrease costs, work more productively and to generate real added value. They also make a key contribution to securing their customers head start on the competitive international market. DEKOM joins the existing IPP partners, ConsortioTec, Creatio, hereworks, smartcomm and Vega Technology.
“The addition of DEKOM is a big step in expanding our international network to bridge partnerships,” said Chris Salazar-Mangrum, VP of USAV. “As we grow this program, we strengthen our members presence and competitive advantage. These global relationships are major benefits for our partner network. In total, our network now spans over 40 countries with 100 integrators in over 300 office locations.”
USAV members and vendor partners have supported the IPP by forming an International SIG. The collaboration group are currently focused on establishing an International Partnering Process highlighting the best practices for collaboration with international integrators.
