Microsoft-funded engagements

Engagements Microsoft helps pay for.

Microsoft co-invests in partner-delivered workshops, assessments, and deployments because well-deployed products get renewed. That’s the whole arrangement, and it’s worth being plain about:

Microsoft pays us for a defined piece of the work. It is a co-investment, not a giveaway.

It doesn’t always cover the full cost of the engagement, and it never covers your side: your team’s time, access to your production environment for some engagements, and in some cases a fee we state in writing before anything begins.

Eligibility is set per customer by Microsoft and changes with program periods. We verify yours before we promise anything.

Tell us which engagement and your tenant’s licence position; we check eligibility in Partner Center and reply with what applies.

Didn’t find your question?

Ask it here. A real engineer answers by email within one business day — and if it’s a good one, it becomes part of this page so the next person finds it.

Answered by a person, one time, to your inbox. Nothing you type here is published without a human reviewing and anonymizing it first.

Programme windows and eligibility come from Microsoft Partner Center and are captured with a date on every engagement page. An engagement whose window has closed disappears from this page on the day it closes — we don’t keep taking requests for something Microsoft has stopped funding. If a window closes while your request is in flight, we tell you and requote the same work at our normal fixed price.
