Synygy (http://www.synygy.com/) Inc., the largest and most experienced provider of sales compensation management (http://www.synygy.com/sales-compensation.html) and other sales performance management (http://www.synygy.com/sales-performance-management.html) (SPM) software and services, today announced a partnership with StepStone Solutions (http://www.stepstonesolutions.com/) , a global provider of talent management solutions, to co-market SPM solutions focused on automation of sales force staffing processes.

Sales force staffing processes include the management of sales hiring, on-boarding, coaching, skills and competency assessment, training and certification, and other talent management functions. With increasingly higher expectations of sales force performance, companies that lack an integrated approach to managing processes related to sales force staffing run the risk of negatively impacting sales force productivity by ineffectively hiring and bringing on board salespeople with the desired skills, experience, and qualifications.

The combined solutions for managing sales compensation, sales performance, and sales talent that are provided by Synygy and StepStone Solutions help to drive sales force effectiveness and productivity.

"This agreement is the latest outcome of Synygy's multi-faceted partnering strategy," said Mark A. Stiffler, Synygy's president and CEO. "StepStone Solutions is a leader in web-based talent acquisition and talent management solutions. Our joint solutions further expand our offerings the area of the sales staffing process component of Synygy's set of a dozen SPM focus areas."

With complementary geographic and subject matter footprints, the two organizations intend to leverage one another's strengths to present comprehensive solutions to their clients.

"Companies are taking a holistic approach to their pay-for-performance initiatives," said StepStone Solutions CEO, Matthew Parker. "Our partnership with Synygy, a world-recognized authority on sales compensation and sales performance management, positions us to address the entire scope of sales operations needs of our client base."
