Schneider Electric has announced its new mySchneider IT Partner Program, which will provide a simplified, innovative and collaborative approach to enable partner growth. This redesigned program will focus on enabling diverse and developing business models, as well as allowing partners to differentiate their businesses by becoming strategic advisers and market specialists across several IT disciplines.
The IT channel landscape is always developing. Schneider Electric’s new IT partner program fits this dynamic ecosystem by enabling partners to expand and distinguish their businesses over time, building on the company’s award-winning channel history. The program focuses on several specializations, allowing partners to certify in one or more based on their existing skills and future objectives.

Over the last ten years, participants of Schneider Electric’s IT channel program have reaped substantial benefits from Schneider Electric and its flagship APC brand, including savings, tools, and creative offers. Partners who participate in the evolved program will remain agile in the face of today’s changing market dynamics, resulting in approximately eight times higher revenue.
Specializations will be made available in phases over the following 12-18 months, beginning with IT Solution Providers, Data Center Solution Providers, and Software & Services Providers. The first specialization, IT Solution Provider, is currently available and is appropriate for IT providers who are experts in IT infrastructure solutions within remote IT environments.
Key features of the IT Solutions Provider Specialization include:
Data Driven Program Dashboard: The digital experience has been fully redesigned to support new value-based and data-centric needs, allowing partners to see real-time business changes and data. This new program dashboard not only gives transparency to partners, but also reveals primary emphasis areas for partners to level-up in the program for better expertise or rewards.
Business-Specific Tools: Certified partners gain access to the tools needed in today’s environment, including the Local Edge Configurator, which has configured tens of thousands of solutions within the distributed IT space across the world.
Increased Profitability: IT solution providers will gain access to unique deal registration discounts that exceed normal discounts provided through Schneider Electric’s Edge Opportunity Registration (ORP) Program.
mySchneider Rewards: With the return of one of Schneider Electric’s most popular rewards programmes, mySchneider Rewards, members of the partner account – including sales, engineers, services, and other functions – can earn points from various activities that can be redeemed for over 60,000 items, experiences, merchandise, and more.
Dedicated support and account coverage: Ongoing sales account coverage assists with business development operations as well as pre- and post-sales assistance.
Rapid digitalization has changed the way customers are served. The mySchneider IT Partner Program is simple to use, with a simpler structure that allows us to be more agile, relevant, profitable, and future-ready.
