CoCreate gains Microsoft Gold Certified partner status

“As a gold certified ISV partner managed by Microsoft’s Manufacturing Industry Solutions team, we now have the closest working relationship with Microsoft and the highest level of expertise with Microsoft technologies,” says William Gascoigne, CoCreate CEO. “Gold certified partner status allows us to … leverage new resources that help us enhance our offerings to customers within the high-tech electronics and machinery industry.” “Customers are looking for partner companies that can bridge the gap between their business demands and technology capabilities,” says Allison Watson, vice president of the worldwide partner sales and marketing group at Microsoft Corp. “They need to trust in a company that can act as an expert adviser for their long-term strategic technology plans. Microsoft gold certified partners, which have certified expertise and direct training and support from Microsoft, can build a positive customer experience with our technologies.” Microsoft technologies are key to the CoCreate OneSpace collaborative CAD suite, which uses a lightweight and open approach to link into users’ existing IT investments to create a PLM (product lifecycle management) approach connecting product planning, development and manufacturing.
