Pracedo Wins Community Impact Award At The Salesforce Regatta

PRESS RELEASE

Leading Salesforce consultancy, Pracedo, was awarded the Community Impact Partner Of The Year Award 21/22 at the Salesforce Regatta 2022.

London, 30th June, 2022 – Pracedo was recently presented with the Community Impact Partner Of The Year Award at the Salesforce Regatta. The award recognises Pracedo for its dedication to customer success with Salesforce and its strong commitment to diversity and inclusion, which has resulted in new opportunities for local talent.

Pracedo was one of the first UK partners to make the 1% Pledge commitment. The Pledge supports underserved and underrepresented communities through pro-bono work, building diversity in the Salesforce ecosystem and supporting local communities through workforce development.

“Through the years we’ve helped some of the UK’s largest charities with their digital transformation through Salesforce.” said Matt Schutz, CEO and Founder of Pracedo. “This award not only recognises our commitment to customer success, but also deepens our commitment towards diversity and inclusion, and creating opportunities for trailblazers.”

In 2022, Pracedo’s global organisation grew to more than 80 people, with a strong focus on long-term community-based growth across its offices. As a result of this success, Pracedo has been able to reinvest in its people through training and more effective internal practices, which now boasts over 925 successfully completed projects since its inception 12 years ago. The focus on quality Salesforce implementations and customer success has also seen the company achieve a 5-star customer rating on the Salesforce AppExchange.

Pracedo UK plans to continue this growth trajectory in the coming years and to bring in more local talent in cooperation with Salesforce Talent Alliance and the LDN Apprenticeships, which were founded in 2010 in response to the high levels of youth unemployment in London caused by the 2008 financial crash.

Over several years, Pracedo UK has taken on 17 local apprentices, most of whom have graduated to become consultants. Pracedo is an industry leader in gender, ethnic, and social diversity. In the UK, 40% of its total workforce and 50% of our senior leadership team identify as women. 75% of the leadership team identify as members of underrepresented communities and 28% of its workforce team are nonwhite (vs 15% in tech in England, UK).
