Microsoft Partners: Nominate Your Company for the RCP 200

Want to be recognized as one of the top Microsoft partners in the United States? The entry form is open for the third annual RCP 200 list.

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 (MPN), 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.

Does your company have what it takes? Fill out the application here by Sept. 28 to make sure you're considered.
