Sahoo will continue to execute on the company’s vision to become
the global technology ecosystem's business-to-business (B2B)
platform. This includes leading the continued development and
deployment of its digital twin, Xvantage™, a patent-pending B2B
technology platform and operating model designed to make it easier
for customers and vendors to work with Ingram Micro and create more
value.
“Ingram Micro has built upon its decades of experience to become
a disruptive leader and digital force in the global technology
industry,” says Paul Bay, CEO of Ingram Micro. “I’m pleased to
announce the appointment of Sanjib as President of our Global
Platform Group. A proven business strategist and digital innovator,
Sanjib’s expanded leadership and dedicated team will better support
and accelerate our vision of becoming a platform company that will
reinvent the B2B customer experience through Xvantage.”
Previously, Sahoo served as the company’s executive vice
president, global technology and chief digital officer. Hired in
2021, he set the vision and roadmap for Ingram Micro Xvantage, an
AI-driven business platform for Ingram Micro’s team members,
customers, and vendor partners that enables real-time interactions,
data exchange, insights, and purchasing, significantly reducing the
friction from typical B2B transactions. In 2022, Ingram Micro’s
digital experience platform broke ground, starting a transformative
journey for the industry-leading technology distributor.
With approximately 29 million lines of code, 20 intelligent
engines, and 30 patents pending, Xvantage is uniquely and
purposefully designed to change how the tech industry works. Now in
use in 16 countries, Xvantage is moving the industry from
transactions to more interactions by introducing actionable
business intelligence for strategic growth and decision-making.
“Sanjib’s vision for Xvantage and our team’s ongoing commitment
to excellence have changed how we create and deliver value for the
global tech industry,” continues Bay. “Together, with our customers
and vendors, we are delivering more value and realizing Ingram
Micro’s strategic shift from 45-year-old technology distribution
leader to ground-breaking, global B2B platform innovator.”
As President of the Global Platform Group, Sahoo leads all
aspects of platform strategy across Ingram Micro. This includes
platform development, the innovation flywheel, global growth,
services and support, and the business expansion plans for Ingram
Micro’s platform operating model. Sahoo also oversees the key
leadership team within Ingram Micro’s Global Platform Group and
will continue collaborating with Ingram Micro’s regional
Presidents, Chief Country Executives, and other business leaders to
transform the company’s operating metrics and drive more growth
through Xvantage.
“I’m honored to lead our efforts to move towards a
platform-first model and transform Ingram Micro from distributor to
platform ecosystem company,” says Sahoo. “Xvantage is helping our
customers and vendors to work faster, smarter, and with more
intention. I’m excited to lead, collaborate, inspire, and take
action to enhance and expand Ingram Micro’s growing impact on our
customers, vendors, and the industry through our AI-driven digital
experience platform Xvantage.”
Elevating the Experience at Scale
Throughout 2024, Ingram Micro worked to improve the experience
and business efficiency of its more than 161,000 customers and
1,500 vendors globally by using Xvantage to build greater customer
advantage and help eliminate friction tied to the market’s most
common and complex B2B pain points. The innovation cycles and
enhancements to Xvantage are continuous and include:
- End-to-end automation of real-time cloud, hardware, and service
transactions as singular quotes, ordering and invoicing, including
custom configurations and industry-specific special pricing.
- Automated ordering and management of cloud subscriptions with
hardware, services, and software on a single quote, making it
easier for any channel partner to provide high-value
solutions.
- Fully persona-based business insights, reporting, and solution
recommendations using AI/ML models.
- A native Xvantage Mobile App allowing customers to work in
real-time from anywhere.
- Collaboration with IT industry Hyperscalers, including AWS,
improving the experience of IT channel partners worldwide with
consolidated purchasing and billing to building, deploying, and
managing custom solutions and services.
Xvantage Serves the Industry with Greater Success at
Scale
Adding to the momentum around Ingram Micro and Xvantage is the
continued and growing support of its customers and technology
vendors.
“The introduction of Xvantage has changed how we work and how we
think about the future of our company and the experience we want to
create and innovate around for our team and our customers,” says
Bill Blum, President, Alpine Business Systems and U.S. Co-President
of Trust X Alliance, an exclusive, global community of strategic
Ingram Micro customers. “The combined leadership of Bay and Sahoo
is inspiring and impactful. Congrats to Sanjib and Ingram Micro and
the continued advancement and adoption of Xvantage.”
At the 2024 Ingram Micro ONE Innovation Summit, HP’s VP Global
Channel Partner Sales shared his experience with Sahoo on stage,
stating Ingram Micro is “disrupting the distribution at its core”
with Xvantage.
Ingram Micro was a pilot partner of the new Buy with AWS feature
available through AWS Marketplace. This allows Ingram Micro to
provide simplified software buying experiences for customers on its
website, powered by AWS Marketplace. Additionally, Ingram Micro
recently announced a multi-year Strategic Collaboration Agreement
(SCA) with AWS, designed to drive more business to and through the
global IT channel via Xvantage.
“With the combined power of our people and our Xvantage
platform, we will distribute even greater success at scale for our
growing ecosystem of customers, vendors, and alliances,” concludes
Bay.
