~ Company receives special recognition for
sweeping East, Central, and West EPG awards ~
Perficient, Inc. (NASDAQ: PRFT) (“Perficient”), a leading
information technology and management consulting firm serving
Global 2000® and other large enterprise customers throughout North
America, received U.S. Partner and Industry Team Partner of the
Year awards during Microsoft’s 2015 Worldwide Partner Conference
(WPC) in Orlando, Fla.
The pair of awards recognize Perficient sweeping Microsoft’s
regional Enterprise Platform Group honors. Perficient was
designated Microsoft’s East Region National Solution Provider (NSP)
Partner of the Year, Central Region NSP Partner of the Year and
West Region NSP Partner of the Year – the first time Perficient has
won all three at once.
Together, the awards underscore Perficient’s capabilities in and
successful implementations of Microsoft solutions nationwide. These
solutions include cloud computing technologies such as Office 365,
Microsoft Azure, Skype for Business Online, Yammer, SharePoint
Online, InTune and Power BI.
“Perficient’s ability to deliver high-quality digital
experiences, business optimization and industry solutions for our
largest and most critical customers in the enterprise customer
segment is what won them National Solution Provider (NSP) partner
of the year across East, Central and West regions in U.S. EPG,”
said Rich Figer, Senior Director, U.S. Enterprise Partner Group
Sales at Microsoft. “We are also honored to name Perficient the
overall U.S. EPG Partner and Industry Team Partner of the Year in
2015 based on unanimous confidence across our partner sales
executive teams in all three regions across the United
States. They consistently deliver cloud-optimized solutions
across our platforms and productivity services with complete
customer and Microsoft sales executive satisfaction.”
Perficient has activated over 2.5 million Office 365 seats and
has 26 Azure certified consultants, more than any other NSP.
“Microsoft’s enterprise offerings have grown increasingly
cloud-based as companies move to adopt this innovative, efficient
and secure technology,” said Mike Gersten, Vice President of
Perficient’s Microsoft national business group. “Cloud computing
lowers operating costs and provides agility and scalability options
unavailable on limited legacy infrastructure. We are honored to
receive these partner awards, which reflect the strength of
Perficient’s Microsoft cloud consultation and delivery expertise at
work across the country.”
Highlights of recent Microsoft implementations include:
- Collaborating with one of the largest
entertainment conglomerates to automate the user selection, the
migration and the reporting process for a customer’s move to Office
365. The solution enabled the customer to speed up deployment of
125,000 users to the cloud.
- Partnering with a national energy
efficiency program management company to plan and develop a
proprietary online portal. The Microsoft Azure-based solution makes
participating in efficiency programs quick, simple and
frustration-free for customers.
- Working with Partners In Health, a
Boston-based nonprofit that delivers high-quality health care and
serves impoverished communities around the world, to implement
Office 365 at cost. The deployment is furthering PIH’s mission
through increased collaboration, communication and productivity
across the organization.
“Perficient’s proven track record in the health care industry,
its Microsoft cloud services expertise, and its recognition as a
top U.S. Microsoft partner all stood out prominently when we were
looking at technology solutions providers,” said Dave Mayo, CIO of
Partners In Health. “Thanks to our partnership with Perficient, we
have adopted a consolidated, reliable platform for colleague
interactions that enables us to more effectively serve the world’s
most vulnerable. Perficient’s generosity and support of our efforts
has earned our profound gratitude.”
