Program Requirements

The Aligned System Integrator Program is a points-based program that recognizes partners based on their performance, expertise and partnership with Smartsheet. The program requirement categories are weighted as we want to recognize the value our partners deliver, not just the volume of transactions produced. There are several metrics within each requirement category that System Integrators will be assessed against. The table below outlines the weight of each program requirement category as well as the corresponding metrics within each category for each tier.
