Convverge Earns Two New Microsoft Specializations, Expanding Access to Funded Data & AI Projects for Clients
New specializations in data analytics and AI agents mean eligible customers can now get Microsoft-funded assessments before committing to a full project.
Convverge has achieved the Analytics on Microsoft Azure Specialization and the Agentic Business Solutions Specialization from Microsoft, building on our existing designations and established experience delivering Microsoft Fabric, Power Platform, Copilot Studio, Azure, and Dynamics 365 solutions for organizations across North America.
Both specializations recognize Microsoft partners with proven, audited expertise: Analytics on Azure covers data platform work across Microsoft Fabric, Azure Synapse, Azure Data Lake, and Azure Databricks, while Agentic Business Solutions covers AI agents and automation built with Power Platform and Copilot Studio.
For customers, the specializations unlock something concrete: eligible organizations can now access Microsoft-funded assessments and proof of value projects in data, analytics, and AI agents, typically covering 50-75% of the investment. It’s a lower-risk way to find out what’s possible before committing to a larger engagement.
What This Unlocks for Customers
A funded assessment or proof of value project uses your own data and your own use case to answer the questions that usually block technology investment: “will this actually work”, and “what is the required investment?” Convverge builds the use case, measures it against your desired outcome, and delivers an estimate and phased plan to production, before you commit to the full build.
Once the proof of value is complete, Microsoft funding typically steps up again to help support the build itself. Funding has to be arranged before a project starts, so it’s worth starting the conversation early.
We’re very proud to have earned these Microsoft specializations. This milestone reflects the depth of expertise our team has built across data and AI. But most importantly, we’re excited about what this means for customers exploring investments that otherwise may have been out of reach.
