Cognitive Technologies Earns Microsoft's Business Value Planning Services Certification
Cognitive Technologies -- a consulting firm specializing in project management, collaborative processes, and organizational effectiveness for federal and state government and Fortune 1000 companies – is pleased to announce that we have earned Microsoft’s Business Value Planning Services (BVPS) Certification.
BVPS is designed to help customer business decision makers develop a plan to leverage the strategic value of the Microsoft Information Worker (IW) platform by improving the positive impact of business processes, working with the customer to document, analyze, optimize, justify, sequence, and propose a plan to improve their business using Microsoft Office System and Information Worker platforms.
With the BVPS certification, Cognitive Technologies applies a reliable, repeatable process to conduct 3-, 5-, 10-, or 15-day engagements with clients and is able to accept the client’s Microsoft Software Assurance vouchers as compensation.
“Cognitive Technologies is especially pleased to earn this certification because our approach to the implementation and configuration of any technology has always been to focus on people, processes, and the real business problem,” says Dr. Karen McGraw, CEO of Cognitive Technologies. “With this certification, clients can rely on us to conduct workshops with decision makers to address the business problem, build a convincing business case for adoption of technologies, provide independent third-party analysis and advice, and plan business processes that produce results.”
This new BVPS certification is in addition to Microsoft’s SharePoint Deployment Planning Services (SDPS) certification Cognitive Technologies earned previously. The SDPS certification is a software assurance benefit designed to help organizations plan effective Microsoft SharePoint deployments that optimize the core capabilities of SharePoint, lowering the cost of deployments.
