In order to gain a Specialization under the Microsoft partner program we needed to provide verifiable evidence that we have successfully delivered projects to our customers that demonstrate a wide range of essential capabilities. For you as a customer this means that working with a partner like us gives you the assurance that best practices are being adhered to and that your solution will be built to highest standards.
As one of the small number of Microsoft partners who have a Specialization, an additional benefit is that we have access to the funding streams from Microsoft that are their specifically to help you take your first steps on new Azure initiatives. This has the potential to help you reduce the risk of your cloud project and significantly reduces the barrier to taking action. Your business gets the outcome it needs and you can get their faster and at lower cost.
Under the old Microsoft Partner Program 345 Technology was proud to be a Gold Partner. When Solutions Partner status was introduced, Microsoft raised the bar significantly, requiring partners to demonstrate more skill and expertise, and also greater customer success. 345 Technology was up for the challenge because of the strength and depth of our technical team and also from the great work we have done with our customers.
Specializations build on this Solutions Partner status, with Solutions Partner status being a foundational requirement. Working over an 18-month period, we have paid great attention to the customer projects we delivered and made sure that we worked to the guidelines set out by Microsoft in the Cloud Adoption Framework. Gaining a Specialization has long be a goal for us; we knew that if we delivered great work to our customers and provided the evidence to the Microsoft auditors that would get us over the line.
Successfully passing the audit for our Specialization not only gave us the enhanced status in the Microsoft Partner Program, it also acted as a tremendous seal of approval for the skills and hard work that our delivery teams have put in over that time. We are looking forward to our continued participation and success with the Microsoft Partner Program as we value the benefits it provides to our customers.
