How to Use Partner Ecosystem Data in Prioritization
RMOS™ blends partner overlap, intent, influence, and fit to prioritize accounts and plays for co-sell, resell, and marketplace motions—so Sales, Marketing, and Alliances focus where partners amplify win rate and deal speed.
We operationalize ecosystem data by extending the signal → feature → score → action pipeline with partner context. Tech stack compatibility, shared customers, co-sell intent, deal registrations, marketplace signals, and influence from SI/ISV/MSP partners are normalized to a shared taxonomy, mapped to account & buying group identity, engineered into features (coverage, credibility, capacity, timing), and combined with rules + models. The output is partner-weighted prioritization that drives routing, SLAs, plays, and budget across net-new, expansion, and retention.
What Ecosystem Signals Should You Use?
The Ecosystem→Prioritization Pipeline
Turn ecosystem context into decisive focus—and decisive focus into higher win rates and faster cycles.
Ingest → Identity → Normalize → Feature → Prioritize → Orchestrate → Govern
- Ingest partner data: PRM, marketplace, partner portals, deal reg, co-sell platforms, enrichment.
- Resolve identity: Map partner orgs and contacts to accounts and buying groups; unify IDs/domains.
- Normalize taxonomy: Standardize motions (co-sell/resell/marketplace), roles, solution areas, badges.
- Engineer features: Tech fit score, coverage index, influence index, intent recency, partner capacity.
- Prioritize accounts: Blend ABM fit/intent with partner weights; create partner-ready bands.
- Orchestrate plays: Map bands to co-sell sequences, AE+Partner BDR SLAs, and marketing suppression/activation.
- Govern & improve: Review lift by partner, stage velocity, and ROMI; shift MDF to top-performing combos.
