Partner Support Services Designation Public Preview Deck + Nomination Form
On July 18, 2023, at Inspire, Microsoft provided an update to our partners regarding plans to launch a new Partner Support Services Designation, which builds on the Microsoft AI Cloud Partner Program solution area designations and further recognizes a partner’s breadth and excellence of support capabilities. Partners who earn a Support Services designation will be given access to Microsoft tools and resources to enhance their support capabilities. Badging for the designation will help partners differentiate their organizations with customers and in the Microsoft commercial marketplace. We are opening a limited public preview for partners to get an early look at the Support Services designation, provide feedback and get on the fast track to qualifying when the program is fully available. Learn more about the prerequisites for joining the public preview and self-nominate using this simple form if all prerequisites are met. *The full Partner Support Services Designation Public Preview Presentation is attached below. * -- Advanced Support for Partners (ASfP) is a paid, Partner offering that includes a Partner Success Account Manager and technical consultative benefits to help you grow in the Microsoft Cloud more quickly.

Is there a simplified way to submit CPoR claim?
I have joined an organisation as Head of Digital Transformation and Consultancy Services. As part of the role, I am responsible for the relationship with Microsoft and the Partner Centre. I am working to ensure we have now registered CPoR against our clients (and there are a lot) as it had not previously been done. It has been some time since I actually ran through the process and I have been alarmed how "manual" it is and how time consuming. The need to physically print off, manually complete the PoE form, scan, send to the client, client print, client sign, client scan, client send back is very 2003 and very time consuming. Also finding that different members of the review team want to see different things and so the process is turning into a difficult task when it doesn't need to be (since all of the evidence and information is already in the Partner Center). Does anyone have a recommendation for improving or automating the process? have i missed something in relation to the PoE form? any guidance would be appreciated.Microsoft Partner FY25 GTM Launch Event - July 22, 2024 - Registration Now Open!
