Additionally, Kyndryl’s position as a global partner of the German enterprise software giant – which aims to provide SAP managed services to customers in over 60 countries including Australia, New Zealand and Japan – continues to grow as the company strengthens its market presence across the globe. As part of its relentless commitment to supporting its clients in their digital transformation initiatives, Kyndryl has deepened its Alliance with SAP this month.

The expanded collaboration will be primarily focused on creating new solutions to help customers overcome important digital business challenges. Commenting on the announcement, Madhuri Chawla, Global Head of SAP Strategic Partnership and Alliances at Kyndryl, shared in a statement:

“We are excited to continue to strengthen our offerings together to provide our valued customers with a full suite of digital services as their business needs and challenges continue to evolve.”

“As our customers embark on new cloud transformation strategies, this joint effort enables us to streamline operations and improve visibility into their mission-critical workloads at unprecedented speed and scale,” concluded Shawla.
