Winterhawk announces Partnership with Velocity Technology Solutions

Winterhawk announced that it has entered a strategic partnership with Velocity Technology Solutions, a global leader in enterprise application cloud services, to jointly pursue SAP Governance, Risk and Compliance (GRC) projects in the Cloud for customers throughout the world. This relationship enables the companies to enhance the breadth of their services for their growing SAP practices.

Velocity’s private cloud platform offers secure cloud environments for customers with stringent security and compliance requirements. Winterhawk offers rapid deployment templates that simplify and accelerate SAP GRC implementations. Through this arrangement, both companies will provide an industry first, innovative alternative to traditional GRC deployments. This will enable companies to purchase SAP GRC software, SAP Cloud Certified Hosting, and SAP Implementation Solutions with the use of Rapid Deployment Solutions and Functional Application Management Services.

The two companies are now capable of providing SAP deployments that are secure, meet all compliance standards needed for the particular customer’s vertical market, and significantly reduce risks of customers SAP environments in the Cloud. The organisations will pursue market opportunities jointly.

“Companies are adopting Cloud solutions at an increasing rate, and through this relationship with Velocity we can offer customers private and public cloud options immediately,” said Steve Hewison, CEO of Winterhawk. “Organisations are seeking trusted partners to deliver these kinds of solutions and together our companies offer distinct capabilities to SAP users that are as comprehensive as any other available in the industry.”
“This partnership enables Velocity to offer customers more services to help them manage their businesses effectively,” said Ralf Suerken, Vice President, SAP Line of Business for Velocity Technology Solutions. “Our SAP practice has grown significantly and the relationship with Winterhawk will create even more opportunities for us as we can now offer customers SAP GRC Cloud solutions for a predictable monthly fee.”
