Arrow Intelligent Solutions has been helping customers tackle digital transformation for many years. Through these experiences, a comprehensive portfolio of products, services, and support infrastructure has taken shape. With a large ecosystem of technology partners, Arrow’s experts can take customers from initial concepts to fully deployed global implementations.

 

How we do it: The Arrow Ecosystem

Arrow’s ecosystem involves technology partners, co-creation partners, and in-house services – all coming together to provide end-to-end capabilities. Technology partners include a wide range of hardware, software, and infrastructure providers offering simple components like sensors to complex vertically integrated cloud-technology stacks. As technology rapidly evolves, Arrow invests in building the ecosystem by adding a network of co-creation partners. These partners bring new capabilities to end customers and broaden Arrow’s already substantial offering portfolio. Co-creation partners have specialized domain expertise and offer application-level software and provide integrated solutions that speed up deployment time. 

Arrow’s comprehensive portfolio of services includes design engineering, integration, testing, global logistics, professional and support services.  From complete turnkey solutions to specific skills that complement existing capabilities, Arrow’s offerings can match any needs for original equipment manufacturers (OEMs), independent software vendors (ISVs), and system integrators (SIs).  Financing programs can make it easier for companies to achieve business objectives. Offerings include a mix of operational expense (OpEx), capital expense (CapEx), and outcome-based models to meet key financial metrics.

Arrow market-ready solutions include full-stack offerings that combine products and services to address specific applications and use cases. They are typically customized to meet end application requirements and include last-mile installation and deployment services.

The entire ecosystem and the wide range of complementary products and services have made Arrow a leading orchestrator of operational technology solutions. Solution orchestration revolves around meeting end-customer objectives by help ensure the right partners and solutions engage to yield the most optimal and cost-effective outcomes. For example, systems integrators can have extensive capabilities within their organization but may not cover all the customer needs. Arrow focuses on supporting these resource or skills gaps with products and services to help the systems integrator deliver the project while meeting customer needs. Capital finance, global deployment, logistics support, etc., are all aspects that Arrow teams can orchestrate to pursue a seamless and successful implementation for the customer.

Another important value proposition for customers is Arrow’s global scope and scale. Building once and deploying globally is truly possible with Arrow’s help, and any customer idea can be supported and developed.
