SOMERSET, N.J., June 14 /PRNewswire/ -- Core Services Corporation ("Core Services"), a leading global Oracle hosting and consulting service provider, is pleased to announce its achievement of the prestigious Platinum Partner status in the Oracle PartnerNetwork ("OPN"). This distinctive new OPN Specialized Program was officially launched in December of 2009.  Oracle's Platinum Level membership recognizes Core Services' expertise, competence, and proven record of success in providing mutual clients with highly specialized services and solutions for Oracle's growing product portfolio and Core Services' substantial investment in the Oracle product portfolio.

"The incentive behind the OPN Specialized Program was Oracle's numerous acquisitions over the last several years," says Keith Inouye, Vice President of Sales and Marketing at Core Services.  "Once the Oracle-Sun merger was complete, it became readily apparent to us that the existing OPN model of accommodating diverse partners Oracle inherited through its acquisitions was not sustainable."  Inouye continues, "We were excited to learn about Oracle's new OPN Specialized program, which helps simplify the partner search process by Oracle employees and clients and enables partners to distinguish themselves through specific technical criteria and the types of products and services they provide."  

"The Platinum Partner distinction," Inouye concludes, "confirms that Core Services has shown the commitment and expertise to join the ranks of Oracle's Platinum partners.  Employing OPN Specialized, Core Services hopes to leverage its expertise to refine its Oracle application solutions within specialization categories. This dynamic process enables clients to easily identify where Oracle partners like Core Services match their business and project goals."

With its Platinum status, Core Services receives the benefit of being recognized by Oracle and its clients, and the highest level of engagement, commitment and benefits available to OPN partners. Platinum OPN members receive dedicated virtual account management support to build joint development plans and help broaden specialization areas and revenue opportunities. Additional benefits include priority placement in the OPN Solutions Catalog, one free application integration validated by Oracle, joint marketing and sales opportunities, discounted training and more.
