Microsoft Canada Recognizes WBM Technologies as Winner of the 2021 Surface Impact Award

SASKATOON, Saskatchewan, Canada — July 19, 2021 — WBM Technologies is proud to announce it has won the 2021 Microsoft Canada Surface Impact Award.  These annual Canadian awards recognize Microsoft partners that have focused on bettering the lives of Canadians and demonstrated excellence in sales, marketing, skilling, innovation, and implementation of customer solutions based on Microsoft technology.

“It’s incredible to see WBM recognized as Canada’s leading Microsoft Surface provider, and to bring a national award like this to Western Canada – but this is really about our customers, and it’s the amazing WBM client community who we have to thank,” stated Ashley Schell, Director of Technology Procurement Services at WBM Technologies.

“Our customers continually drive us to seek innovation and generate new value, and that’s led to sophisticated supply chain logistics, a managed inventory program across Western Canada, and an approach that empowers us to really advocate for them on pricing and availability. Helping our community overcome the supply chain shortages of the past 16 months has proven the value of procurement services even more, and this will continue for the foreseeable future. To see the WBM team also win Microsoft’s national Modern Workplace award really shows how our team is driving new levels of productivity and collaboration, and how our customers are seeing these devices as integral tools that help achieve a world class technology experience for their end users.”
