"NCG Medical is extremely pleased with our new status as a Microsoft Gold Certified Partner for Software Products," said Antonio O. Arias, vice president of Business Development at NCG Medical. "Being a Gold Member of the program allows us to clearly promote ourselves to customers as having proven expertise in providing high-quality software products. The incremental benefits provided through our Gold membership will allow us to continue to enhance the offerings that we provide for customers."

The Microsoft Gold Certified Partner Program provides a way for customers to identify companies that have proven their commitment and expertise in one or more specialized areas when delivering Microsoft technologies. Microsoft Certified Partners need to meet a higher set of criteria for each category, including enhanced certification and a portfolio of real-world customer references, and are thus identified as the most skilled partners in specific solution areas.

The Microsoft ISV/Software Solutions Competency and Networking Infrastructure Solutions recognize the skill and focus partners bring to particular solution sets. Microsoft Gold Certified Partners that have obtained this competency have a successful record of developing and marketing software based on Microsoft technologies.

"Solutions Competencies are an important way for Microsoft to better enable ISVs to meet customer needs," said Sanjay Parthasarathy, corporate vice president of the Platform Strategy & Partner Group at Microsoft. "They allow ISVs to keep and win customers with their deep knowledge of solutions-based Microsoft platform technologies. Microsoft has a long history of working closely with ISV partners to help deliver compelling solutions and applications to our mutual customers, and the Solutions Competencies are an important step in continuing to enhance vital relationships with ISVs worldwide."
