Ashling Recognized by Microsoft for Capabilities in Data, AI, and Apps

CHICAGO, Oct. 29, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Ashling, a leading global provider of AI and Automation consulting services, today announced it has achieved Microsoft Solutions Partner for Cloud & AI Platforms, with recognition in two key pathways: Data & AI and Digital & App Innovation.

Enterprises are moving from AI pilots to AI in production with coded agents, and the question has shifted from what is possible to what can be governed, integrated, and sustained. These designations recognize Ashling's ability to help operations, finance, and technology leaders answer that question on the Microsoft cloud.

Microsoft awards Solutions Designations based on a partner's performance, skilling, and customer success. Earning two reflects sustained delivery for clients and a deep bench of certified Ashling practitioners. 

"Our team has spent years building and running automation and AI programs inside complex enterprises, and that experience shapes how we design for governance, scale, and adoption from the start," said Don Sweeney, Co-CEO of Ashling. "This designation reflects the depth of that team and the standard our clients hold us to." 

What the designations mean for clients

• Data & AI: Ashling designs and delivers the data foundations and AI solutions that let enterprises put intelligent automation and coded agents into production with governance built in.

• Digital & App Innovation: Ashling helps organizations modernize and build applications that support automation at scale, connecting new AI capabilities to the systems that run the business.

"The strongest validation of our work is what happens after go-live: clients expanding programs, bringing new teams in, and trusting us with more of their operations," said Marshall Sied, Co-CEO of Ashling. "These partnerships are why we invest in the Microsoft platform, and this designation reflects what we have built together."

Ashling's recognition rests on more than services delivery. The firm's validated agentic operating model gives enterprises a repeatable structure for designing, governing, and managing AI agents alongside human teams. Development accelerators improve both the quality and the speed of delivery, shortening the path from design to production. And Ashling's multimodal approach to solution design matches each use case with the best-fit technology, so solutions are built around the outcome rather than a single tool. Together, these give clients reusable foundations for AI and automation programs that grow with their operations rather than restart with each new use case.
