At QComp Technologies, we’ve always prided ourselves on delivering excellence, innovation, and reliability in every automation solution we design. One milestone that exemplifies our long-standing commitment to quality is our designation as an ABB Authorized Value Provider—a title we’ve proudly held since 1997. In fact, we were the third company in the world to join the program.
That’s not just a number. That’s history.
What Is the ABB Value Provider Program?
ABB’s Authorized Value Provider Program is an elite global network of channel partners who are carefully selected, trained, and certified to represent ABB’s world-class automation products and services. These partners are more than resellers—they are technical experts and trusted advisors who meet ABB’s rigorous standards for service, support, and customer satisfaction.
“We do an annual business plan with all of our partners which includes an audit of their technical capabilities,” said Mark Handelsman, Robotics Channel Manager at ABB. “When we recommend Value Providers to our customers, we weight the experience and capability very heavily.”
Being an ABB Value Provider means offering:
- Local access to ABB technology and support
- Customized solutions built on ABB’s leading robotics and automation platforms
- Fully trained and certified engineering and support teams
- A shared commitment to continuous innovation and reliability
“The Value Providers go through an audit before they are selected and an annual review to make sure they maintain their capabilities,” Handelsman added. “This gives our mutual customers the benefit of QComp’s experience with ABB robots.”

Why Being the Third-Ever Value Provider Matters
When QComp joined the ABB Value Provider Program in 1997, we weren’t just signing up for a partnership—we were helping shape what it meant to be an ABB partner. As one of the first three companies worldwide to enter the program, we’ve been part of the journey from the very beginning, working closely with ABB to deliver groundbreaking automation solutions across industries.
“The relationship goes back to the early days when the company was run by Tom Doyle and has continued under OwnersEdge,” said Handelsman. “There is a high level of trust and a willingness to go the extra mile to help each other.”
This long-standing relationship has allowed us to:
- Stay ahead of evolving technology with direct access to ABB’s latest innovations
- Co-develop complex, high-value automation systems for our customers
- Offer a level of support and product integration that few can match
It’s a legacy built on trust, technical excellence, and shared vision.
What This Means for Our Customers
For manufacturers and system operators, collaborating with QComp signifies engaging with a partner that:
- Has decades of hands-on experience with ABB robotics and motion products
- Is certified to the highest ABB standards
- Provides fast, local service backed by a global automation leader
“When it comes to glass handling, palletizing and packaging, QComp is among our top partners,” Handelsman said. “They also have a track record of success that gives us confidence to bring additional opportunities to them.”
Our customers don’t just benefit from ABB’s world-renowned hardware—they get QComp’s deep expertise and decades of real-world automation integration experience.
Looking Ahead
As we continue to innovate and push the boundaries of industrial automation, our partnership with ABB remains a core pillar of our success—and our customers’ success.
“ABB as a company believes that having strong system integrators is a key part of our growth and success,” said Handelsman. “We need to have a program that allows us to identify and validate the capability of our top partners like QComp and provide the tools they need to be successful.”
Being one of the first ABB Value Providers in the world isn’t just a point of pride. It’s a promise of quality, expertise, and dedication that we bring to every project, every day.
