Hardware & Peripheral Solutions

Innovation, Reliability and Performance

Thrive in the Evolving Digital Landscape

The hardware solutions segment captures the essence of companies whose core offerings revolve around tangible computing, storage, network and peripheral-based products and appliances. These critical solutions are designed to seamlessly integrate into on-premise, cloud or hybrid environments, providing the backbone for modern IT infrastructure.

While these companies are known for their hardware prowess, many complement their physical products with software enhancements, creating a cohesive ecosystem that maximizes the utility and performance of their offerings. This segment is distinct from those specializing in semiconductor and compute componentry, focusing instead on the broader hardware landscape that enables businesses to thrive in a digital world.

From the foundational servers that power enterprise operations to the peripheral devices that facilitate day-to-day tasks, the hardware solutions segment is synonymous with innovation, reliability and performance.

How We Help

  • aaS go-to-market evolution: Go-To-Market models must evolve as organizations diversify revenue streams and leverage recurring revenue streams to augment hardware sales, drive revenue stability and enhance profitability. Assess, develop and implement growth readiness by identifying key growth drivers and prioritizing initiatives that align with a services-led go-to-market strategy.

  • Annual planning coverage enhancements: An efficiently functioning and coordinated organizational structure will meet customers’ needs in a hybrid On-Prem and Cloud environment. Ensure that your sales, marketing, and customer success resources are deployed to effectively maximize profitable growth and achieve business growth objectives.
  • Channel program transformation: The channel landscape is growing more complex in a services-led landscape. Organizations need a coordinated program to support both legacy and emerging partners (E.g., Hyperscalers). Determine the partner strategy and build an effective partner program ecosystem. Drive profitable growth in Installation and Service operations.
  • Digital channel optimization: Having a robust digital channel is critical to support the buyer journey. Start by defining the roles, tools and enablement needed for digital channel efficiency, including providing enhanced CX and reaching a wider audience.
  • Sales compensation program updates: Innovation and changes to go-to-market models is yielding increased wages and increased compensation costs. New roles and service-led sales motions require new sales compensation plan constructs.
