Advancing Analytics achieves AWS Partner Select Tier

Written by Adam Jackson | Aug 8, 2025 3:32:15 PM

We’re excited to announce that Advancing Analytics has levelled up to AWS Partner Select Tier Services Partner - basically, AWS giving us a nod for delivering real-world cloud, data, and AI projects that actually work.

For several years, we've been recognised as a top Databricks Partner - and this year we were awarded the highest-tier Databricks Elite Consulting Partner status. Now, we're proud to achieve AWS Select Tier Services Partner. This isn’t just about collecting badges. It unlocks some serious perks for our clients: think AWS funding opportunities, faster project wins, and tighter alignment with the AWS platform.


What does the AWS Partner Select Tier mean?

The AWS Partner Network (APN) groups consultancies by experience and delivery record.

Select Tier status shows that a partner has:

  • Delivered successful AWS projects

  • Achieved key certifications

  • Passed AWS’s partner validation process

In short, it’s a signal of credibility - useful if you’re comparing partners and want confidence that you’re working with a team AWS already trusts.

 

What does this unlock for our clients?

Working with a Select Tier partner gives you access to real advantages, including:

💰 Access to AWS-backed funding

We can now offer clients access to AWS programmes that help cover project costs - including Proof of Concept (POC) funding and Migration Acceleration support. This can lower upfront investment and reduce risk.

🤝 Closer collaboration with AWS

As a Select Tier partner, we work directly with AWS account teams - giving our clients access to joint planning, support, and platform resources.

📚 Certified expertise

This milestone reflects the depth of AWS certification across our team - from architecture and data engineering to AI/ML. Our people are fully equipped to design, build, and scale on AWS.

We’re also now listed in the AWS Partner Solutions Finder, making it easier for new clients to discover us.

 

Why it matters when choosing a cloud partner

AWS Select Tier status isn’t just a fancy label - it’s our promise that we’ve been tested and approved by AWS.

This means your projects benefit from:

  • Lower risk from proven AWS delivery experience

  • Access to AWS incentives and funding to support your project

  • Faster time-to-value through technical alignment with AWS

  • Ongoing investment in innovation - we’re already progressing toward AWS Competency status in Analytics, AI, and Migration

We’ve got the badge... now let’s put it to work

Achieving Select Tier status is a win for us - but the real value comes in what happens next.

Our focus now turns to building AWS Competencies in Data & Analytics, Migration, and AI, deepening our technical credibility where it matters most. We’re strengthening our joint go-to-market with AWS, aligning with account teams and leveraging the ACE portal to identify and co-sell into new opportunities.

And as we continue to add certifications, deliver successful projects, and log engagements, we’re setting our sights on Advanced Tier - unlocking even greater benefits for the organisations we work with.
