Since 1981, Intel has held its position as one of the world’s most prominent hardware designers and manufacturers. Without Intel’s engineers, the world may have never seen the x86 microprocessor, whose CISC architecture powered a new frontier of technology that still dominates much of today’s CPU market.
Groundbreaking innovations aside, Intel also hosts an ecosystem of partners comprised of hundreds of distribution, design, and manufacturing enterprises from across the globe. The Intel Partner Alliance pushes the industry forward by meriting and supplementing companies that are innovating technology to change the world. That’s why we’re proud to say Maple Systems is an Intel Gold Certified Partner.
What are Intel partner certifications?
Intel’s partner certifications are the credentials given to an enterprise lucky to be a part of the Intel Partner Alliance. With these certifications, member companies have more opportunities to build their businesses through training, development, prototyping, marketing, financial and technical support, and so much more. To acquire these certifications, a company must meet the requirements set by Intel.
How does a company become an Intel Gold Certified Partner?
Intel’s Gold Certified Partners are Partner Alliance members who’ve earned access to even more of the benefits Intel offers. Gold tier member benefits include receiving an Intel Partner Showcase storefront with lead generation tools, special event invitations, streamlined customer support, and more. There are three ways to achieve Intel’s Gold certification:
- Revenue: Achieve a certain level of sales of qualifying Intel products.
- Training: Earn a specific number of training credits through Intel Partner University.
- Solutions: Have at least one approved solution listed in the Intel Solutions Marketplace.
How Maple Systems reached Gold status
Our goal is to provide the best hardware, software, and customer service to anyone working in the sphere of industrial automation and control. To do that, we constantly broaden our knowledge and skills. Staying on top of the latest technological trends enables us to offer the innovative tools that we do, like our rugged industrial PCs (IPCs) that Intel’s hardware powers.
What this means for Maple Systems partners
We don’t need another company to tell us that living up to high quality standards is important for building trust with our customers. We’ve been doing that since 1983, making sure your company’s automation and control scenarios work just the way you need. But it doesn’t hurt to give credit where credit is due. With Intel’s Gold standard recognition, you don’t just have our word—you have proof from one of the strongest technological ecosystems in the world.
