Three awards reflect one consistent theme: structured delivery, proven capability, and infrastructure that performs reliably beyond deployment.
CGTech secured three awards at the HPE Aruba Networking Awards Evening. Recognition at this level is significant, but only when it reflects something real in the environments being supported. For CGTech, these awards are not the outcome of the work. They are an indicator of how the work is approached and delivered.
Awards can highlight performance, but they do not define it. What ultimately matters is whether that performance translates into stable, secure, and predictable environments for clients. Recognition is therefore best understood as validation of consistent execution rather than a standalone achievement.
Garth van der Biggelaar was named HPE Aruba Distinguished Engineer of the Year. This recognition reflects technical capability applied in real operating conditions across migrations, optimisation, and ongoing stabilisation where performance and resilience are critical.
In environments where even small inefficiencies can create wider operational impact, that level of expertise plays an important role in reducing risk and improving consistency. The value of technical depth lies not only in solving issues, but in preventing them through structured design and informed decision making.

Takie Tsironis received the Executive Ambassador of the Year award. This recognition highlights the importance of alignment across the broader technology ecosystem. Strong infrastructure outcomes are rarely the result of isolated decisions. They depend on coordination between vendor capability, partner execution, and client requirements.
This alignment ensures that solutions are designed with clarity, implemented with structure, and supported consistently over time. When these elements are aligned, environments are more likely to remain stable and predictable as they evolve.

CGTech was also named Partner of the Year for the second consecutive year. This reflects performance across certifications, delivery capability, and ongoing development of technical expertise. More importantly, it reflects consistency. Not just individual success, but the ability to deliver repeatable outcomes across multiple environments.
In enterprise networking, consistency is what builds trust. It is not enough to deliver a successful project once. The expectation is that the same level of performance can be maintained across different environments and over time.

For clients, recognition at this level has practical implications. It reflects a team that applies structured delivery methods, maintains technical standards in changing environments, and supports infrastructure beyond the point of deployment.
Networks are not evaluated at the moment they are installed. They are evaluated over time, based on how they perform under real conditions. This includes stability, visibility, and the ability to adapt as requirements change. Recognition provides an indication that these factors are being addressed with consistency and discipline.
CGTech recognises the role that HPE Aruba Networking plays in supporting enterprise grade infrastructure. This partnership strengthens the ability to design and implement environments that meet evolving performance and security expectations.
Strong partnerships ensure that solutions are not only aligned to current requirements, but also capable of adapting to future demands. This contributes to more resilient and reliable infrastructure over time.
These awards represent progress, but not a conclusion. They form part of an ongoing commitment to maintaining the level of capability required to support business critical environments effectively.
The focus remains consistent. To deliver infrastructure that is stable, visible, and capable of performing reliably under real conditions.
If you are planning a network upgrade, improving resilience, or reviewing how your environment performs under pressure, speak to CGTech for a structured and practical next step.
