WESCO Distribution Canada LP recently announced that it has earned the Bosch Certified Excellence Partner designation. The Certified Excellence (CE) designation is an international program in the Partner Management of Bosch Rexroth, one of WESCO Canadas’s largest suppliers of automation and control products. Certified partners must provide the best and most reliable service to customers and are seen as an integral part of “ONE Rexroth Sales” worldwide.

WESCO will leverage its Certified Excellence designation to maximize the use of Bosch technologies to efficiently support customer operations wherever they are located.

Michael Gross, Vice President & General Manager of WESCO Canada stated, “With Bosch as a partner we are giving our customers and users a competitive advantage through safe, efficient, intelligent and high-performance solutions. We’re excited about our successful partnership with one of the world’s leading suppliers of drive and control technologies and are looking forward to aggressively growing our automation and control business together with Bosch Rexroth.”

“A key element in our Go-to-Market approach is Partner Management,” said Edina Jurkovic, Bosch Rexroth National Distribution Manager. “This has a major impact on how we structure our sales force and how we manage our growth. In short, it is a major factor in our sales strategy. To find out the right partner with the right competencies and potentials we established the Certified Excellence Program. That stands for a strong partnership, a seal of excellent competencies, and quality in services and cooperation. The Certified Excellence Program offers a unique opportunity to review the complete local partner strategy and landscape in the Sales and Country unit. The target is having competent partners, who want to grow with us by unlocking and opening market potential.”

Both Bosch Rexroth and WESCO Canada will continue to utilize their strong partnership and act as one team to fulfill customer needs and boost growth.
