Centric Consulting Achieves Microsoft Managed Partner Status

This recognition places the firm among an elite group of organizations that partner with Microsoft to deliver impactful outcomes for clients.

DAYTON, Ohio, Sept. 30, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Centric Consulting, an international business and technology consulting firm, is proud to announce it has been awarded Microsoft Managed Partner status — a distinction held by fewer than 1 percent of U.S. Microsoft partners. Each year, Microsoft evaluates partners based on a combination of client performance, technical specialization, and strategic alignment.

"As a Microsoft Managed Partner, we've evolved from service provider to strategic technology ally," said Jason Pohl, Vice President at Centric Consulting. "This partnership gives our clients insider access to Microsoft's cutting-edge innovations while equipping our team with advanced expertise and resources needed to help them future-proof their business."

As a Microsoft Partner for 15 years, Centric has successfully delivered comprehensive solutions across all Microsoft products and solution areas. The firm has achieved all six solution designations across Microsoft's three priority solutions areas: AI Business Solutions, Cloud and AI Platforms, and Security.

Additionally, Centric has earned advanced specializations in Azure Analytics, Data Warehouse Migration, Adoption and Change Management, Dynamics Sales, and Azure Virtual Desktop, further demonstrating its comprehensive expertise and commitment to Microsoft technologies.

Centric has participated in numerous Microsoft partner programs, including the Copilot & Agents at Work Jumpstart: Ready Tier, Scale with Cloud & AI Endpoints Jumpstart, and the Cloud Pulse IQ Program. The firm also became a Microsoft Fabric Featured partner earlier this year.

"As a Microsoft Managed Partner, we provide what most businesses need but can't easily access: enterprise-grade AI that adapts, learns and grows alongside your operations," added Pohl. "While competitors stick to conventional IT services, we're creating AI-first organizations and training the next wave of AI-expert consultants."

Centric's Microsoft Consulting Services provide end-to-end expertise across Microsoft's integrated cloud platform while partnering with organizations to accelerate their cloud journey and unlock the full value of Microsoft's AI-driven solutions — Microsoft 365, Dynamics 365, Azure, Copilot, and Security — fueling smarter decisions, faster innovation, and long-term growth.
