Leadership awards recognise Vertiv’s products, strategy, and value
London, UK [June 22, 2022] – Vertiv (NYSE: VRT), a global provider of critical digital infrastructure and continuity solutions, has received three industry leadership awards from Frost & Sullivan, with recognition in EMEA for product leadership in the prefabricated modular (PFM) data centre industry, and for competitive strategy and customer value leadership in the Asia-Pacific critical power industry.
“Driving innovation and growth is a difficult task made even harder by the strategic imperatives forcing change today, such as disruptive technologies, value chain compression, industry convergence, and new business models. In this context, Vertiv’s recognition signifies an even greater accomplishment,” said Darrell Huntsman, chief executive officer, Frost & Sullivan.
Frost & Sullivan applies a rigorous analytical process to evaluate multiple nominees for each award category, before determining the final award recipient. The process involves a detailed evaluation of best practices criteria across two dimensions for each nominated company. Vertiv excelled in these three categories thanks to its customer-centric approach, technology-integrated and versatile products, and strong overall performance.
According to Frost & Sullivan, Vertiv’s ability to uncover unmet market needs and under-served customer requirements is unrivalled. The company demonstrated excellence in developing products and solutions that match current market needs and anticipate future customer requirements. With a far-reaching product positioning strategy, Vertiv has successfully established a distinct position and significant competitive edge in the data centre market, including in the colocation, cloud, enterprise, and edge segments.
“Commitment to our customers and dedication to innovation and excellence in the data centre industry are among our top priorities at Vertiv,” said Rob Johnson, CEO, Vertiv. “We are honoured that Frost & Sullivan recognise the value of our customer focus and solution strategy.”
