The CRM Partner of the Year is Hitachi Consulting, whose U.K. arm was Dynamics Public Sector Partner of the Year. Accenture/Avanade was Alliance Partner of the Year — Application Platform, and also won the award in the Desktop and Dynamics Distribution segments and was a finalist in the CRM and Online Services Solution categories. Among the less international-focused VARs, New York-based InterDyn AKA was a finalist for ERP Partner of the Year. Tribridge, last year’s partner of the Year, was a finalist for the Dynamics Public Sector award One of the smaller organizations on the list, Rose Business Solutions/RoseASP of San Diego, was a finalist in Dynamics Cloud Business Excellence. The Professional Services Partner, legal specialist, Client Profiles, has won that award three straight years. The Atlanta-based company employs about 100 people. Think about the differences with the customer awards handed out at Convergence last spring. Nine Tribridge customers won and many of the better-known U.S. players also had a showing.
