ANS has retained Microsoft Azure Expert Managed Service Provider (MSP) status having once again met the stringent requirements of the exclusive global program.

The certification recognises that ANS’ Azure customers receive continuous optimisation in spend and technology and fully audited managed services, as well as having continued access to the most qualified consultants and technical resources throughout their digital transformation journeys.

To retain certification, partners are required to undergo an in-depth audit to evaluate technical expertise, security and governance, SLA customer satisfaction, cost optimisation and reporting.

ANS demonstrated a strong capability to deliver complex rehost, refactor and rearchitect projects for their customers and a unique ability to handle vast migration and transformation projects in Azure.

Over the last 12 months, ANS has strengthened their offerings in Azure having developed a highly refined CloudStart framework designed to ensure large-scale migration projects follow a precise methodology with built-in efficiencies.

ANS was also highly commended for their risk assessment methodology, plan and design process and Azure DevOps capabilities.

Andy Barrow, CTO at ANS said, “We’re consistently striving to develop, improve and expand our Microsoft Azure capabilities and offerings for our customers and we’re delighted to once again be recognised for this.”
