“Our partner network is a powerful force for our customers, transforming their experience and delivering exceptional value,” said Beata Reimer, Head of the Global Partner Ecosystem, Dayforce, Inc. “By enabling new pathways for our partners to thrive and scale, we’re creating a differentiated partner program – one that strives for excellence and creates even more exceptional experiences for our mutual customers.”
The Dayforce Partner Network is a strategic accelerator for business growth, designed to expand market reach, enhance expertise, and drive success through collaboration. This program evolution will have three interconnected pillars consisting of Service Delivery Partners, Community Partners, and Technology & Innovation partners. Designed to recognize and support each partner’s unique strengths and opportunities for expansion beyond one partner type, these pillars are complemented by three new tiers – Emerging, Growth, and Strategic – designed to unlock a range of benefits as partners progress along each stage.
Dayforce’s vision for its partner ecosystem is grounded in the ability to deliver comprehensive solutions that maximize value for customers and accelerate go-to-market efforts. Six key areas, including customer success and technical competency, will be used to measure progress and help partners advance through the tiers. Partners and customers will benefit from enhanced collaboration, growth opportunities, added flexibility, and focused support.
The new partner program will launch in January 2025.
