Microsoft Worldwide Partner Awards Finalist
Outsourcery (AIM: OUT), a leading Cloud Service Provider ("CSP") offering Cloud-based IT and Microsoft unified communications solutions for the commercial and public sectors, is pleased to announce that it has been named as a finalist for the prestigious Microsoft Worldwide Partner Conference 2015 awards, in the category "Public Sector: Government Partner of the Year". The awards recognise Microsoft partner companies whose solutions reflect Microsoft's cloud-first approach, and provide innovative solutions to public sector organisations. Outsourcery is one of three finalists for this global award and, of these, is the only UK company included.
Piers Linney, Co-CEO of Outsourcery said: "This recognition from Microsoft reflects their support for Outsourcery's Assured O-Cloud, and our capability to deliver consistent, high-quality solutions to Government customers. It comes amid great public sector momentum for Outsourcery, after we received formal Pan-Government Accreditation for the Assured O-Cloud Platform earlier this year. Having recently won our first contract via the G-Cloud framework, we are increasingly confident about our prospects within the Public Sector."
