Manchester, UK? 21 March 2011 – Codework ALTIMATE were today notified they have been successful in their bid to retain their rights to distribute the Symantec Enterprise Security portfolio.

Following a rigorous tender process that began in January with ten distributors, Codework ALTIMATE completed a written RFP, followed by a presentation to a senior board at the Symantec Head Office. Finally, a presentation of their 30, 60, 90 day plan sealed their bid and their place as a strategic Symantec distributor.

This Request for Proposal came as a result of a Symantec initiative to cut their previous number of distributors in order to streamline and inject value back in to the channel. The bid includes the rights to Symantec Data Loss Prevention, Control Compliance Suite as well as the recently acquired PGP.

Country Manager Divyesh Lakhani commented, ?We are delighted with today?s announcement and are eager to put in to practice the plans we presented. We have always seen great potential in the Symantec Enterprise security portfolio and invested long before this RFP was announced. For this reason, we are not beginning from a standing start and therefore have high hopes for Q1 FY12.?
