G tersloh - Arvato Systems has once again successfully reached all six possible Solution Partner Designations from the Microsoft AI Cloud Partner Program (MAICPP) as part of its annual recertification. This means that for another year, the company is one of a small group of German Microsoft partners who are allowed to wear the highest partner badge of the Microsoft AI Cloud Partner Program Microsoft Cloud . The IT specialist is also investing more heavily in highly relevant solution areas such as Generative AI and security, impressing not only customers and partners but also analysts with its innovative portfolio.
Arvato Systems and Microsoft have enjoyed a close partnership for more than 20 years, which has enabled the G tersloh-based IT specialist to provide its customers with a holistic portfolio of services and solutions to support them on their journey into the digital future. Arvato Systems offers its clients all services from a single source, from purchasing licenses as a cloud solution provider to consulting and implementation as a system integrator and supplementary managed services. In addition, the end-to-end portfolio is supplemented by numerous proven industry solutions in the media, retail and consumer goods, energy, manufacturing, healthcare and public sector.
With this years recertification as part of the Microsoft AI Cloud Partner Program (MAICPP), Arvato Systems has once again achieved all six available Solution Partner Designations. The basis for receiving a Solution Partner Designation is the successful demonstration of know-how, performance and customer success.

Partners must provide extensive proof of competence as part of an external and independent audit. As a sign of the continuous investment in the partnership with Microsoft, Arvato Systems can boast four new specializations in the areas of Security, Modern Work and Business Applications compared to the previous year:
Cloud Security (new)
Threat Protection (new)

For example, Arvato Systems is the 6-time leader in the current ISG Provider Lens study Microsoft Ecosystem and even the overall leader in the new Generative AI quadrant. It is clear: Arvato Systems is not only an experienced and reliable partner for classic cloud topics, but also a driver of innovation for the disruptive technologies of tomorrow - our heart beats for Germanys digital transformation!
