Achieving the AWS Migration Competency allows Smartronix to differentiate itself to customers by showcasing AWS and cloud migration methodologies expertise, particularly around secure migration services for highly regulated and compliance-driven organizations.

"Smartronix' attainment of the AWS Migration Competency underscores our commitment to cloud and the technical and business value it delivers our customers," said Joe Gerczak, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer at Smartronix. "AWS continues to add competencies and programs that highlight and differentiate partners with experience specific to cloud and it is important for customers early in the adoption curve to know they are working with a proven entity like Smartronix."
