We are taking applications starting today for the 6th annual RCP/Rocket Awards sponsored by Redmond Channel Partner magazine and Revenue Rocket Consulting Group.

A well-oiled hiring process, a commitment to new-client acquisitions and a more industry-focused strategy are the keys to success for the 2017 RCP Rocket award winner.

AgileThought, a Tampa, Fla.-based custom software solution and development consulting specialist, is the 2017 winner of the RCP Rocket Award.

This year's award winner is Crestwood Associates, a small ERP partner that overcame an uncertain start, two recessions and an overall trend of channel consolidation to achieve multiple consecutive years of double-digit growth. 

The deadline for this year's award for partners that have shown exceptional growth is May 2.

For the third straight year, Redmond Channel Partner magazine and Revenue Rocket Consulting Group spotlight three companies that exemplify sustainable growth strategies for the 2015 RCP Rocket Awards.

Risk is part and parcel of Valorem Consulting's DNA.

The common refrain among services providers is that specialization is critical to success.

Nowadays, it seems anithetical for any modern company to focus on its employees first and on its customers second.

Every year, Redmond Channel Partner magazine and Revenue Rocket Consulting Group scour the Microsoft partner community for IT services companies that are doing it right.

The deadline for this year's award for IT services companies that have shown exceptional growth is May 1.

Two of Microsoft's highest-profile systems integrators (SIs), one in the Southeast and one in the Northeast, are merging into one East Coast services company.

Three companies earned our second annual award for sustainable business growth, the RCP Rocket Award. For PowerObjects, HMB Inc. and Concurrency Inc., common business problems were the cauldron from which stronger companies emerged.

A debate over a squeeze ball, those promotional toys that end up in the junk drawer of every tradeshow and job fair attendee ever, gave HMB Inc. the bounce it needed.

For a 25-person company in Minneapolis to set a goal to be named by Microsoft as the No. 1 Dynamics CRM partner in the world seems overly ambitious.

Sometimes for a small business, losing your most important customer is the best thing that can happen to you.

Revenue Rocket Consulting Group CEO Mike Harvath moderated a panel at the 2014 Microsoft Worldwide Partner Conference that included RCP Rocket Award winner Mark Seeley and CEOs of three other cutting-edge systems integration firms talking about how they're transforming their businesses.

Three companies earned our inaugural award for sustainable business growth. See how winners Axis Group LLC, Envision LLC and Intellinet Corp. planned and executed their way to success.

Sometimes overnight success takes decades. That's been the case for one of the 2013 RCP Rocket Award winners, Envision LLC.

In mid-2010, Atlanta-based Intellinet Corp. was struggling. A tough recession in the technology services industry and a strategic plan that had not kept up with the changing marketplace had plagued the firm's productivity.

Albert Hughes felt a little skittish when SAP AG announced it was buying Business Objects in 2007.
