¡°The U.S. Public Sector Resell program strengthens SAP ÂÜÀòÊÓƵ¡¯s ability to better serve public sector organizations as they work to modernize their technology investments,¡± said David Ballard, senior vice president, public sector, SAP ÂÜÀòÊÓƵ. ¡°These regional resellers also have a deep understanding of the unique public sector requirements, especially in the state, local and higher education market, so organizations are able to turn to established, trusted advisors as they evaluate technology purchases and make these advancements.¡±

As the public sector continues to modernize its technical and financial systems, state and local government organizations spent a??$107.6 billion on IT in 2019, and??from the U.S. Office of Management and Budget shows the federal government spent more than $88 billion on IT.

¡°Every year, government is given a longer task list without a budget to match,¡± said Wil Martinez, managing partner, Meridian Partners. ¡°Through our partnership with SAP ÂÜÀòÊÓƵ, Meridian helps government agencies effectively automate their travel and spend management systems, reducing fraud, waste and abuse, which leads to operational efficiencies and cost savings.¡±

ÂÜÀòÊÓƵ Travel, Expense, and Invoice are the leading cloud solutions to help manage public sector spend, increase visibility and drive operational efficiencies. As SAP ÂÜÀòÊÓƵ¡¯s public sector business continues to grow, additional reseller partners will be added to the program over the next year, further expanding the company¡¯s ability to help transform government spend management within public sector organizations.
