Intervate, a T-Systems company, is proud to announce it has been recognised yet again at the 2016 Microsoft Partner Network Partner of the Year Awards and gala dinner, held at Gallagher Conference Centre, in Midrand, on 24 August. Intervate won the Collaboration Partner of the Year award for the 10th consecutive year.

The annual awards ceremony honours Microsoft partners for delivering meaningful and innovative solutions that directly address customer challenges. The Collaboration and Content Partner of the Year award recognises a Silver or Gold partner as exceptional, and is based on successful and innovative projects completed with customers on SharePoint.

As a Microsoft Gold Partner and an organisation with a long-standing relationship with Microsoft that has grown over the past 17 years, Intervate continues to demonstrate excellence in its use of Microsoft technologies to help customers on their digital transformation journey.

Says Peter Reid, Executive Head of Intervate: "We are extremely proud of this accolade bestowed on us yet again and our achievement is testament to our level of dedication to quality and innovative thinking. This mindset is ingrained in our culture as a company and we are continuously pushing the boundaries by delivering solutions that challenge the status quo. Our goal is not only to meet the expectation of the customer and their customers' experience, but to go beyond this and to be strategically relevant to their business objectives."

Intervate is no newcomer to collaboration and has been delivering innovative and world-class solutions to customers for many years. The company's core values of passion, innovation and excellence are the driving forces behind its successes. However, teamwork played a significant role in the company winning this award.

Says Craig Mitchelmore, Head of Productivity Solutions at Intervate: "Our cultural ethos of challenging the norm enables us to deliver disruptive technologies that position our end-user customers in a new light, enabling them to compete on a different level."

Rozanne Day, UX Designer at Intervate, described the experience as amazing, daunting, exhilarating and challenging - all at the same time. She says: "Intervate has exposed me to different kinds of design with the use of Microsoft Sway and video production in the submission, and prepared me to embrace a challenge as an opportunity to learn, grow and excel."

Reid concludes: "We would like to extend our thanks to everyone at Intervate who made this accolade possible. We would also like to thank Microsoft for their unending support and inspiration with our collective projects and solution co-development initiatives."
