RCP 200 Call for Entries

We're putting the wraps on our second annual RCP 200 list of the top U.S. Microsoft partners, but we wanted to give loyal RCPmag.com readers one more chance to throw their hats into the ring.

This is a qualitative list of the Microsoft solution provider companies that demonstrate a laser focus on Microsoft technology and a strong commitment to providing great value for their customers. There are a few requirements -- companies that get listed must belong to the Microsoft Partner Network, must have major end-user service operations in the United States and should have at least one Microsoft Gold Competency.

Beyond that, it's subjective. We're not just looking for the biggest companies or the broadest coverage of Microsoft technologies. Some winners are niche providers, focused on a narrow part of the Microsoft stack, others have a great regional reputation, still others are regular Microsoft regional award winners.

Think your company has what it takes? Fill out the application here by May 9.
