NTT DATA UK&I, a global innovator in business consulting and IT services, has extended its pan-EMEA partnership with Google Cloud to the UK & Ireland.
As a Google Premier Partner – the highest status a Google Cloud Partner can achieve – the alliance further strengthens NTT DATA UK&I’s multi-cloud capabilities to drive even greater value for end clients and partners.
The extended partnership enables NTT DATA UK&I to work jointly with Google Cloud on go-to-market strategies to provide consulting, implementation and managed services to clients seeking digital transformation. It will enhance NTT DATA’s ability to assess cloud maturity, create a strategic migration plan and architect a cloud transformation that helps maximise business value, leveraging Google Cloud’s responsive, performance-driven digital technology.
While customers across a range of industries will benefit from the partnership, both NTT DATA and Google Cloud have strong heritage in the UK telecommunications, financial services, and public sector industries. The combined expertise in these sectors will deliver unrivalled outcomes for customers in these industries.
Mike Jones, VP and head of partners and alliances at NTT DATA UK&I, said: “We’ve recently been building out our hyperscaler relationships and investing heavily in strategic alliances, so we’re thrilled to be announcing this new partnership with Google Cloud in the UK&I, as a tier one global partner. Through all our partnerships, we’re focused on accelerating value for our clients. Working with Google Cloud extends our cross-industry expertise and enables us to deliver even greater innovation. We’re very much aligned in our approaches to R&D and leading-edge technology, so we look forward to where the partnership can take our customers.”
As a Snowflake partner, NTT DATA also brings the powerful capabilities of Snowflake on Google Cloud. NTT DATA’s systems integrator experience combined with its Snowflake knowledge is set to drive increased value for end customers, accelerating their Google Cloud journeys.
Gareth Lyon, head of data and intelligence alliances, NTT DATA UK&I, added: “This partnership enables NTT DATA to be a truly multi-cloud systems integrator, with hyperscale capabilities. The huge opportunities that we can now deliver through the power of three – NTT DATA, Snowflake and Google Cloud – is an exciting proposition for customers and partners alike, and further enables us to build solutions that solve problems.”
