Ogilvy Australia Named as Sitecore Platinum Partner

Ogilvy Australia – part of STW Group -  has been awarded Platinum Implementation Partner status by global Customer Experience Platform, Sitecore.

It is the first time an Australian marketing communications agency has achieved the Platinum Implementation Partner status, selected by Sitecore out of 120 companies across Australia and New Zealand.

Criteria required to achieve Platinum Implementation Partner status includes demonstration of best practice at every stage of the customer cycle, proven track record, scale and depth of experience and capabilities. Ogilvy’s experience working with large-scale enterprise projects executed by top-tier Australian organisations was a driving factor in achieving the Sitecore Platinum Partner status.

Jason Davey, head of digital, Ogilvy Australia said he was incredibly proud of the partnership as a true reflection of the strength of capabilities and the level of Ogilvy’s digital offering, which was bolstered by the acquisition of Bullseye last year.

“Our Sitecore partnership highlights Ogilvy as a thought leader and expert in delivering connected customer experiences; which is something our clients and the market expect in 2015,” he said.

“Today’s CMO needs their brand to differentiate through content and experiences, delivering the ultimate customer engagement every time. This endorsement from Sitecore highlights Ogilvy’s depth of digital skills together with our ability to manage customer interactions across all channels. When you combine this with our creative firepower the flow-on benefits of this partnership to our clients, both current and potential, are enormous.”

Owen Brandt, Alliance director, and Sitecore Australia and New Zealand said: “Congratulations to Ogilvy on becoming a Platinum Implementation Partner. This designation illustrates how Ogilvy can complete Sitecore’s vision for customer experience management and to deliver these projects at scale.”

“Ogilvy has demonstrated an extensive understanding of the entire Sitecore offering, has deep Sitecore experience and is committed to creating happy Sitecore customers.”
