ProModel Corporation Attains Gold Certified Partner
Status in Microsoft Partner Program
In December 2007, ProModel received
notification that we attained Gold Certified Partner status
in the Microsoft Partner Program with a competency in ISV/Software
Solutions, recognizing ProModel’s expertise and impact
in the technology marketplace. As a Gold Certified Partner,
ProModel has demonstrated expertise with Microsoft technologies
and proven ability to meet customers’ needs.
“We are extremely pleased to have attained Gold Certified
Partner status in the Microsoft Partner Program. This allows
us to clearly promote our expertise and relationship with
Microsoft to our customers,” said Keith Vadas, ProModel
President and CEO. “The benefits provided through our
Gold Certified Partner status will allow us to continue to
enhance the offerings that we provide for customers.”
“Customers are looking for partner companies that can
bridge the gap between their business demands and technology
capabilities,” said Allison Watson, Vice President of
the Worldwide Partner Sales and Marketing Group at Microsoft
Corp. “They need to trust in a company that can act
as an expert adviser for their long-term strategic technology
plans. Microsoft Gold Certified Partners, which have certified
expertise and direct training and support from Microsoft,
can build a positive customer experience with our technologies.
Today, Microsoft recognizes ProModel Corporation as a new
Gold Certified Partner for demonstrating its expertise providing
customer satisfaction using Microsoft products and technology.”
As one of the requirements for attaining Gold Certified Partner
status, ProModel had to declare a Microsoft
Competency. Microsoft Competencies are designed to help differentiate
a partner’s capabilities with specific Microsoft technologies
to customers looking for a particular type of solution. Each
competency has a unique set of requirements and benefits,
formulated to accurately represent the specific skills and
services that partners bring to the technology industry.
The ISV/Software Solutions Competency recognizes the skill
and focus partners bring to a particular solution set. Microsoft
Gold Certified Partners that have obtained this competency
have a successful record of developing and marketing packed
software based on Microsoft technologies.
“Solutions competencies are an important way for Microsoft
to better enable ISVs to meet customer needs,” said
Sanjay Parthasarathy, Corporate Vice President of the Developer
& Platform Evangelism Group at Microsoft. “They
allow ISVs to keep and win customers through their deep knowledge
of solutions-based Microsoft platform technologies. Microsoft
has a long history of working closely with ISV partners to
help them deliver compelling solutions and applications to
our mutual customers, and the Microsoft Competencies are an
important step in continuing to enhance vital relationships
with ISVs worldwide.”
The Microsoft Partner Program was launched in October 2003
and represents Microsoft’s ongoing commitment to the
success of partners worldwide. The program offers a single,
integrated partnering framework that recognizes partner expertise,
rewards the total impact that partners have in the technology
marketplace, and delivers more value to help partners’
businesses be successful.
