Columbus awarded Medius EMEA Partner of the Year 2024

Medius, a leader in the automation of source-to-pay processes and expense report management, has announced Columbus, a consultancy company expert in digital transformation, the EMEA Partner of the Year. 

The Medius Partner of the Year awards acknowledge outstanding successes and innovations by partners across Europe and North America. The 2024 winners are being recognized for delivering transformative solutions and services to customers and for driving exceptional levels of growth. Given that the priority for many businesses in 2024 was financial agility against a backdrop of economic instability, the 2024 winners were assessed based on their ability to help their customers gain control of costs, cash, and compliance through the entire procure-to-pay lifecycle. 

Erik Sten, Head of Partnerships at Medius said: “Columbus has demonstrated exceptional performance across the EMEA region. As a strategic partner, Columbus has significantly contributed to the growth and success of Medius in the Infor M3 and Microsoft Dynamics communities by offering unparalleled expertise in spend management solutions, enabling customers to streamline their procure-to-pay processes and drive efficiency. In addition to their efforts in EMEA, Columbus has provided outstanding pre-sales support for Medius on large deals in North America.” 

During the past year, Medius and Columbus have expanded their partnership globally as Columbus has included the entire Medius Spend Management suite in their offering to the global customer base. As such, Columbus now supports customers with improved process efficiency and control throughout the entire source-to-pay lifecycle. Joint customers enjoy a seamless integration between the Dynamics 365 or Infor M3 ERP systems and Medius solutions allowing for streamlined processes and full data transparency. 
 
“We are honoured to receive the EMEA Partner of the Year award and look forward to working even closer together going forward. Since the launch of the strategic partnership in 2019, Columbus now cooperates with more than 150 Medius-clients in their digital transformation of streamlining and optimizing their business processes in finance and procurement departments. From that success, Columbus is now targeting to further strengthen the partnership and clients in North America.” says Ole Fritze, COO in Columbus.
