SB C&S Secures AWS DSOR Certification and Sales Strategy
SB C&S, a pivotal player in delivering advanced technologies nationwide, has achieved the Designated Seller of Record (DSOR) status from Amazon Web Services (AWS). This certification marks a significant milestone for the company, as it enables SB C&S to initiate sales through AWS Marketplace starting November 27, 2025.
In today’s fast-paced digital economy, the need for swift and reliable solutions in cloud computing has escalated. To this end, the AWS Marketplace serves as a trusted platform where numerous enterprises, including large corporations, can procure cloud-based software efficiently. The platform not only facilitates a seamless onboarding process for vendors but also offers global selling opportunities, enhancing proposal capabilities for partners while simplifying operation costs through unified contract and billing systems.
The recent DSOR certification empowers SB C&S to promptly deliver cutting-edge solutions, such as security, SaaS, and AI, from various vendors directly to end-user companies via AWS Marketplace. This arrangement alleviates the complexity of expanding sales channels and ensures smoother business operations through existing distributor agreements. Partners can leverage this setup to offer a one-stop product provision scheme to enterprises utilizing the AWS platform.
With connections to around 2,500 manufacturers globally, SB C&S aims to establish a broad product sales network utilizing their DSOR role in AWS Marketplace.
