ICC earns Microsoft Gold Competency in Portals & Collaboration

Information Control Corporation, the largest privately held IT services provider in Ohio, has achieved a gold Portals & Collaboration competency in the Microsoft Partner Network. Earning a gold competency for Portals & Collaboration demonstrates to customers that Information Control Corporation has the skills and proven experience in meeting team and organizational collaboration and connectivity needs across intranets, extranets, and the Internet. ICC has built numerous solutions for customers using SharePoint 2010 that illustrate this proficiency. “A gold Portals & Collaboration Competency helps to differentiate ICC from other partners by signifying our expertise in platforms such as Microsoft SharePoint as well as demonstrating our commitment to serving the needs of clients relying on Microsoft-based solutions,” said Kevin Walter, VP Microsoft Solutions, ICC. “We are particularly proud to be among only 1% of Microsoft partners worldwide that have attained this outstanding degree of proficiency.” The new Microsoft competencies strategy allows for differentiation within the Microsoft Partner Network, as well as the opportunity for partners to highlight their specific skill sets and areas of strength. The new competencies are a result of some significant changes Microsoft has made to its partner program. In the new Microsoft Partner Network, competencies are a recognized level of capabilities and commitment within a given area. Partners who meet the requirements are known by Microsoft to have the highest, most consistent capability and commitment to a specific business solution. In addition to the gold competency, ICC holds the coveted Managed Partner Status which only 2% of Partners hold worldwide, and touts a wide-range of Microsoft experts on staff, like Mario Fulan, MCM and Veenus Maximiuk, VTSP. Our clients are assured Information Control Corporation is recognized by Microsoft and that their solutions will be implemented according to best practice standards and backed by deep technical resources and a diversity of customer experiences.
