Honor reflects her leadership in evolving the Pega Partner program to focus on partner growth and health

CAMBRIDGE, Mass.: Pegasystems Inc. (NASDAQ: PEGA), the leading enterprise AI decisioning and workflow automation platform provider, today announced that Judy Buchholz, senior vice president of global partner ecosystem at Pega, has been named to the 2024 CRN® Channel Chiefs list by CRN®, a brand of The Channel Company, for the second consecutive year. This annual list recognizes the IT vendor and distribution executives who are driving strategy and setting the channel agenda for their companies.

Under Buchholz’s leadership, the Pega Partner program has continued to grow and evolve over the last year. Recently introduced enhancements bring a fresh approach to managing partner programs by helping partners grow their Pega skills and achieve success with each individual client, as opposed to focusing primarily on sales targets. Pega also introduced new Partner Specializations for various industries to help clients find the right partners to fit their needs, while its Pega Marketplace continues to expand with more than 200 verified accelerator and connector offerings.

The Pega Partners program is the basis of the relationship between Pega and the partner ecosystem. The program, grounded in Pega's client-first approach and oriented toward mutual investment and success, is built upon the foundation of the partners' service practice achievements, selling capabilities, and solution offerings. It provides incremental opportunities for growth and differentiation, rewarding demonstrated expertise in Pega technologies and focus industries.
