Veeam and Constellation GovCloud partner to target US public sector customers

Multi-year strategic partnership to co-market and co-sell Veeam’s data resilience offerings to public sector customers and channel partners in the US through the CGC Marketplace.

Veeam has announced a strategic partnership with Constellation GovCloud (CGC), the market readiness and compliance automation affiliate of The Merlin Group.

The partnership will make Veeam’s product family available to public sector customers through the CGC Marketplace.

CGC provides a FedRAMP and StateRAMP compliance automation platform and marketplace where partners are able to not only expedite compliance, but also accelerate time to revenue by leveraging the CGC Marketplace to connect to public sector buyers.

Under the agreement, CGC will be the sole distributor for Federal Sales and will also distribute Veeam’s products to the entire public sector.

Veeam and CGC will co-market and co-sell Veeam solutions that consistently deliver continuity of operations (COOP) for the U.S. Federal government.

Together, Veeam and CGC will deliver the very latest innovation in data resilience to public sector organizations of every size.

Public sector organizations face a range of challenges – from the explosion of data to IT infrastructure complexity, vendor lock-in and the increasing volume and sophistication of cyber threats.

“Today, public sector organizations are balancing how to manage the rapid growth of data while keeping that data protected, secure and available no matter what happens. The growing threat posed by cyber threats and natural disasters puts a premium on ensuring the data powering public services is resilient and always available,” said Shiva Pillay, General Manager and Senior Vice President, Americas, Veeam.

“Veeam and CGC will give public sector customers peace of mind by delivering the power, security and reliability of Veeam’s product family with full FedRAMP authorization through CGC to ensure the public sector keeps running.”

Josh Beard, General Manager, Constellation GovCloud, said: “We are thrilled to leverage our unique platform and marketplace to accelerate FedRAMP authorization for Veeam’s data resilience solutions and to make these essential offerings accessible to enterprise end users and channel partners.

“Our partnership is not only helping Veeam unlock a massive market, but equally important, helping the Government and channel easily access these critical innovations.”

The partnership between Veeam and CGC includes:

  • CGC Marketplace becomes the Sole Distributor for Veeam to Federal customers
  • Co-selling and co-marketing Veeam’s products to public sector customers in the United States
  • Provisioning of Veeam products through the CGC Marketplace
  • CGC will manage the process for Veeam’s products to achieve FedRAMP authorization and will be provided through the CGC Marketplace

Veeam’s existing U.S. distributors – Arrow, Ingram Micro and TD SYNNEX – will continue to drive business in the State, Local and Education (SLED) and Commercial markets via Veeam’s vast partner ecosystem.
