Smartronix named Microsoft Federal Rising Partner of the Year
Reston, VA – 6 September 2013 - Smartronix,
a leading information technology (IT) solutions provider and Microsoft Certified
Gold Partner, announced it has been named the Microsoft 2013 Federal Rising Star
Partner of the Year. The Partner of the Year awards highlight and recognize
excellence and achievement in Microsoft partners who produced exceptional results
for their customers, with a focus on driving innovation in the public sector.
Specifically, Smartronix was recognized for innovative delivery of Cloud-enabled
Microsoft solutions for Enterprise communications and collaboration using Microsoft
SharePoint, SQL Server, Forefront, and Systems Center.
The award was conferred during the 2013 Microsoft Public Sector Industry Solution
University (ISU) yearly event, where Microsoft's Public Sector Executive Team was
onsite to congratulate Smartronix for its achievements.
"Our partners work hand-in-hand with us to extend the missions of our public
sector customers," said Vince Menzione, General Manager of Microsoft's Public
Sector Partner program. "This achievement recognizes Smartronix' exemplary
commitment to Microsoft and to delivering solutions for the Federal
Government."
This recognition gives a nod to Smartronix' landmark use of Microsoft technologies
in support of two of its largest Federal clients: The Department of the Treasury
and The Recovery Accountability & Transparency Board. The Treasury Community
Cloud and the Recovery Transparency Cloud solutions are shared services platforms
that enable bureaus and offices to rapidly consume a wide variety of application
services, thus dramatically lowering the incremental cost of hosting applications.
"We see our partnership with Microsoft as highly strategic and are committed to
delivering innovative solutions built on Microsoft technologies that create value
for our public sector customers," said Joe Gerczak, Smartronix Executive Vice
President and Chief Financial Officer. "Tools such as Microsoft SharePoint
provide a robust platform for us to successfully build repeatable solutions that
create greater operational effectiveness and ultimately drive the cost of Government
down."
