Ovations, South Africa’s foremost provider of business process transformation solutions, has achieved the nation’s first formal EMC Corporation Certification Solution designation for its proprietary OneStream solution based on the EMC Documentum xCP, EMC Captiva and EMC Document Science xPression product sets.

This announcement marks a significant step forward for the OneStream package – a unified case management solution that is designed to seamlessly integrate customer onboarding, customer portfolio management and product management into existing line of business systems.

In partnership with EMC, a global leader in business enablement and operation transformation, Ovations and OneStream will be well positioned to service South African business requirements with a formally certified and reliable technical solution.  The “EMC Certified Solution” program ensures that OneStream has successfully met a comprehensive set of criteria for good design and development best practices.

“This is a significant moment for OneStream. After seeking out prospective partners and meeting stringent compliance requirements we are enthusiastic to announce our partnership with EMC, one of the largest and most capable global IT solutions providers”, adds Deon Van Niekerk – OneStream Practice Lead at Ovations.

According to Van Niekerk, EMC was chosen as a preferred partner due to its impressive brand presence within the South African business environment and complimentary solution sets.

“Our partnership with EMC was influenced by several motivating factors. EMC’s brand presence and EMC Documentum footprint within the South African market is formidable. This, combined with OneStream’s correspondence to the EMC xCP and Business Process Modeling product sets, makes for an impressive match”.

Ovation’s achievement of a formal EMC certification for the OneStream offering is a milestone for both organisations adds Mike Kan, Regional Vice President EMEA Channel Sales & Alliances, Information Intelligence Group, EMC Corporation.

“The EMC Certified Solution demonstrates that Ovations and OneStream have successfully met a comprehensive set of criteria for good design and quality integration.  EMC is pleased to designate them as ‘EMC Certified.’ Companies around the world rely on EMC and our trusted ecosystem of partners for solutions to transform their business. This is the purpose of the EMC Certified Solution program, and explains why we’re excited about working with partners such as Ovations and OneStream,” said Mike Kan, EMC’s head of Channels & Alliances in EMEA.

EMC, Ovations and OneStream are now partners for medium to large organisations.
