CA announces Fujitsu Australia and New Zealand as Asia Pacific Partner of the Year

CA (NYSE: CA) has announced the winners of its 2005 Partner of the Year awards for exceptional performance in their respective regions. Fujitsu Australia and New Zealand was awarded 2005 Partner of the Year for the Asia Pacific region for its overall commitment to and integration of CA technology within its business.

In 2005, Fujitsu expanded its use of CA technology and re-committed to the successful alliance between the two companies.

Vicki Bain, Director Channel and Alliances with CA Australia said, “Fujitsu is an innovative and responsive partner to work with. During 2005, Fujitsu expanded its use of CA technology and is now working towards utilising CA’s Unicenter product to manage all their outsourcing and managed service engagements, as well as to internally manage its own business. We are proud to acknowledge Fujitsu’s business success and expertise around CA’s products in the security, storage and infrastructure management areas.”

As part of the expanded alliance, Fujitsu is currently developing a CA Professional Services practice to engage in joint implementations of CA technology across security, storage and enterprise management. This involves having capability and certification across all CA product sets.

Fujitsu is currently migrating its operation to CA Unicenter Service Desk which will be the largest CA Unicenter Service Desk in the Asia Pacific region.

Peter McFarlane, Executive General Manager, Infrastructure Services, Fujitsu Australia and New Zealand said, “Fujitsu has a long standing and successful alliance with CA, and for some years CA has been a significant partner in our Infrastructure Services business. Today however, the partnership extends across the majority of our business lines and we have embraced CA technology internally.

“Working with CA is an important part of our business. CA’s quality products and solutions support make them easy to partner with. We are very pleased with our achievement this year and look forward to continuing our winning efforts with CA,” concluded McFarlane.
