Singularity wins Microsoft gold

16 September 2005

Irish based IT company Singularity, which has offices in London, New York, Singapore, and India, has achieved Microsoft Gold Certified Partner status, the highest partner certification available from Microsoft.

As a result, the company, which specialises in providing IT solutions and support to the global securities industry, can now access greater levels of support, in addition to increased access to exclusive training content and resources from the Microsoft Partner Training and Readiness Resource Centre.

"Singularity is delighted that our track record in delivering world class software solutions has been recognised by Microsoft”, said Padraig Canavan, Singularity's Managing Director.

“More than 150 Financial Services companies rely on Singularity to automate their business processes and over 40% of London securities transactions travel daily over Singularity systems,” explained Mr Canavan. “So the Microsoft Gold accreditation is an endorsement of our highly skilled staff and the strength and success of our flagship product, the Singularity Process Platform™, a Business Process Management product which is built on core Microsoft technologies.

Commenting on the Partner programme, Colin Cassidy, Microsoft Partner Development Manager, said, “Not only does our partner programme allow companies such as Singularity focus on and specialise in different competencies, it in turn enables Microsoft to provide more tailored and effective support.

We are beginning to notice tangible benefits of the new programme. Singularity is now the eighth company in Northern Ireland to achieve the higher grade of certification, since the introduction of the scheme in 2004.

“Microsoft Ireland and Singularity will continue to work closely together to continue providing quality business solutions, and indeed develop further competencies.” Mr. Cassidy concluded.
