Tally Solutions Pvt. Limited [TSPL] announced the launch of its new channel partner program Vriddhi, to enable its channel partner ecosystem to deliver higher quality experience to customers, while maximizing profitability in business.

The Vriddhi framework will classify partners into Certified Partners, Associate Partners, Partner Developers and Distributors. The program will institutionalize Tally Solutions’ partner enablement process through certification, ensuring partners are in specialized roles to deliver better and more streamlined services to Tally customers.

Speaking about Vriddhi, Tejas Goenka, Executive Director, Tally Solutions Pvt. Ltd. mentioned

With Vriddhi, we intend to create the country’s largest, and most profitable software ecosystem that can deliver great experiences on our world-class products to the diverse customer base that we serve. The new model recognises that growth for the existing ecosystem requires serious focus, dedication, and support from the principal company – especially given the uncertain times that this market is going through right now. With Vriddhi, we will have customers getting access to better sales and support facilities. We will also see more profitable partners pursuing growth like never before.

Partners have been classified based on their organisational strengths and their aspirations with Tally business.

The Certified Partners [CPs] specialize in the sales, implementation and solutions of Tally products. They are characterized by their ability to deliver a great customer experience which enables them to grow faster. They are process-driven organizations and based on the kind of customers they reach out to, they will be classified as 3 star partners and 5 star partners. While the former group will meet regular and generic business solution needs, the latter will cater to more complex business requirements.

Tally also has a clear path to ready its aspiring partners for certification.  These partners would use the expertise that they have developed in Tally products to advise businesses on their Tally related requirements. As they grow in this capacity they will graduate to becoming Certified Partners.

The next category is the Associate Partners [APs], who will play a pivotal role in Tally solutions’ expansion plans. These partners will essentially be IT hardware vendors who are looking to add Tally to their portfolio and thereby addressing more customers, along with serving their existing customers better.

Partner Developers [PDs], will be the niche set of partners who will appoint, train and mentor the Certified Partner category and assist them with certification. Tally desires to do both, grow its existing partners, as well as expand its network to get more and more partners certified. Partner developers will play a key role with this objective and drive their business growth with this model of growing partners.

Distributors will be the bridge for the product between Tally Solutions and all customer-facing partners. They will ensure maximum coverage and access for these partners which will lead to the ease of commerce overall.

Led by the firm belief that Tally will grow only if its partners grow, Vriddhi is defining new beginnings with a greater experience for all its customers, continuous knowledge update for partner resources and sustainable, consistent and fast-paced growth for all Tally partners.

NASSCOM organized the NASSCOM Diversity & Inclusion Summit 2015 with ‘Empowering Inclusion’ as the core theme. The summit witnessed industry leaders share insights on the need to include diversity as a business imperative by energizing with the agenda of inclusive growth.

NASSCOM & NTT DATA also announced the launch of Ntercept’ a mobile based safety application for women, aimed at creating a secure working environment for employees of the sector.

Earlier engineering was considered the exclusive domain of men. However, that has now evolved, with almost 50% of entry level workforce in the IT/ITES companies represented by women. Over the last few years the industry has also been actively pursuing inclusion of people with disabilities as well as encouraging an overall inclusive work culture.

The Summit witnessed speakers from all walks of life sharing best practices on the organizational initiatives that encourage inclusion. A few key thought leaders highlighted innovative programs that have worked in many organizations and shared perspective on driving the inclusivity journey to the next level across the industry.

Speaking at the occasion Mr. R Chandrashekhar, President, NASSCOM

The Indian IT and ITES Industry is a successful model that demonstrates the power of creating an inclusive and diverse work environment. Diversity as we now know is not just about gender and our next imperative is to unravel the various elements that impact the culture of organizations. Knowledge of generational diversity from a cultural point of view is also very important with a deeper understanding of what each generation values at both the individual and organizational scale. We at NASSCOM will continue to work with the government and NGO’s to aid and assist companies in their diversity and inclusion journey and honoring these companies in their endeavors to encourage best practice.

On the sidelines of the event, NASSCOM also declared the winners of the NASSCOM Corporate Awards for Excellence in Diversity and Inclusion to recognize and honor companies that have adopted and implemented policies and practices to promote inclusion as well as enabled employees to contribute towards the success of their enterprise across all levels. This year, the nominations were across three different categories i.e.Excellence in Gender Inclusivity, Excellence in Inclusivity for Persons with Disabilities and Excellence in Leadership (Individual) for Promotion of Diversity & Inclusion.
