PointBridge, a Microsoft solutions provider, was recently selected to become one of 75 Microsoft National System Integrator (NSI) firms. Microsoft Gold Certified partners must complete a rigorous application process to join the NSI program.
The NSI program is designed to support exemplary national and regional Microsoft partners through the Microsoft NSI organization, a national team of Microsoft alliance personnel. The purpose of the program is to elevate the customer experience through national strategic planning and resource distribution, and by doing so assist the NSI partner firms to profitably grow their Microsoft business practices.
To qualify as an NSI partner, technology consulting firms must meet specific revenue, practice development, market coverage and partnership criteria. NSI partners are expected to develop joint business plans with the Microsoft NSI organization and to collaborate with other partners within the Microsoft ecosystem. To remain in the program, NSI partner firms must invest the resources required to achieve specific goals and undergo an annual review process.
“PointBridge has an extensive service practice that brings Microsoft collaboration and business intelligence technologies to customers, said Greg Urquhart, General Manager of Microsoft’s ISV & National SI Organization. We’re pleased to partner with PointBridge as a National System Integrator to expand their solution offerings to Microsoft customers across the country.”
“PointBridge is looking forward to participating in the NSI program,” said Todd Golden, director of alliances and PointBridge co-founder. “We expect our clients to greatly benefit from this strategic investment and the support we will gain from the NSI Program.”
