In our continuous effort to support AWS Partner Network (APN) partners, we are excited to introduce a series focused on maintaining tier compliance. This initiative, titled “Achieve the Green,” aims to guide partners in securing green check marks throughout their Partner Scorecard Review.
The Partner Scorecard, accessible via APN Partner Central, is a vital tool for monitoring and managing your engagement with Amazon Web Services (AWS). It allows your organization’s Alliance Lead to track APN tier status and understand the eligibility criteria for advancing to higher tiers.
Maintaining compliance with APN tier requirements is crucial for preserving your status as an APN Partner, ensuring continued access to valuable benefits, and qualifying for APN Programs such as AWS Competency, AWS Managed Service Provider (MSP), and AWS Service Delivery. These designations are instrumental in helping AWS customers identify and select top-tier APN Partners from the vast pool within the AWS Partner Network.
Accessing Your Partner Scorecard
Once logged into APN Partner Central, your Alliance Lead can view the Partner Scorecard, which highlights compliant elements with green check marks. Areas needing attention are marked with a red “X.” We encourage collaboration with your APN representative to “Achieve the Green” and secure APN tier compliance.
Moving to the Next APN Tier Level
To explore the requirements for upgrading to the next APN tier, simply select the “Viewing Requirements” drop-down menu and choose a higher tier. Advancing through APN tiers unlocks numerous benefits that differentiate your business and expand your customer base on AWS. Whether you are just starting or enhancing your offerings, the AWS Partner Network provides the necessary programs and support to assist you in your journey.
