The company’s status as Elite Partner highlights the enduring collaboration between the two companies and their shared commitment to delivering innovative data centre, digital power and cooling solutions across South Africa and the rest of the SADC region.

The partnership began with the installation of the first Schneider Electric InfraStruxure modular data centre solution at one of TechAccess’ key clients, marking the start of a journey that would result in numrous successful projects in SADC. Jaxon Martin, managing director at TechAccess, sayss: “Achieving Elite Partner status with Schneider Electric is a significant milestone for us.

The Elite Partner status designation requires TechAccess to meet rigorous criteria such as specific sales targets and the completion of training programmes to ensure that its team has the necessary skills and knowledge to deliver Schneider Electric’s advanced power solutions effectively. Furthermore, the new, elevated status will enable TechAccess to expand its portfolio and enhance its capabilities in data centre, power and cooling systems, further solidifying its position as a leader in the data centre industry.
