SoftwareOne has emerged as a leader in the digital space by securing the new Microsoft Copilot Specialisation. This recognition highlights the firm's ability to assist clients in adopting and scaling Microsoft 365 Copilot, optimising Copilot Chat, and extending functionalities with Copilot Studio and agents.

"This specialisation is a big milestone for our customers and our people," noted Oliver Berchtold, Chief Operating Officer at SoftwareOne. His statement underscores the company's commitment to helping businesses seamlessly integrate and benefit from Copilot technology. With this accolade, SoftwareOne has made it clear that it is a reliable ally in navigating AI adoption from initiation to success.

Over the past year, SoftwareOne has delivered a series of successful Copilot engagements worldwide. The firm completed 1,362 adoption and security projects, enabling clients globally to design effective use cases, enhance security measures, govern data more effectively, boost user adoption, and obtain tangible productivity benefits.

Coupled with its existing six Solutions Partner Designations, this new specialisation brings SoftwareOne's total of Microsoft specialisations to 21, reflecting its dedication to delivering superior technological solutions.

Boasting a global presence across more than 70 countries, SoftwareOne leverages its deep Microsoft knowledge to implement wide-scale AI programs with consistency and impact. "Our differentiation is end-to-end," emphasised Berchtold, " We combine advisory, design, deployment and adoption, while future proofing with Copilot Studio and agents."

The profound impact of these unique capabilities is that SoftwareOne can deliver tangible results faster than its competitors. Its combination of ready-made templates and pre-built agents enables clients to transition from experimentation to enterprise value swiftly and responsibly.

According to Juan Quesada, Global Partner Tech Lead at Microsoft, "The Microsoft Copilot Specialisation helps customers quickly identify partners with proven experience across Microsoft 365 Copilot, Copilot Studio, and agent-based extensibility." By attaining this specialisation, SoftwareOne has demonstrated not only its capability and customer impact but also its secure deployment practices, crucial for scaling AI in the workplace.

Being one of the first to receive this recognition places SoftwareOne in a spotlight, reflecting its global reach and its ability to consistently deliver high-quality AI solutions that meet customers' diverse needs worldwide.
