In the Microsoft Partner Program, competencies are a recognized level of expertise within a given technical and/or business area. Accomplishing a Microsoft competency requires a combination of employee technical certifications, multiple customer references, and evidence of a significant amount of work in that competency. All Microsoft Gold Partners are required to have at least one competency, but of the approximate 4,500 current gold partners only 1% has more than one. To date Catapult Systems has 13 competencies, placing it among a select group of elite Microsoft partners worldwide.
Our competencies include:
- Business Intelligence (BI)
- Business Solutions – Dynamics CRM

“Achieving these competencies demonstrates Catapult’s outstanding commitment to developing deep expertise across Microsoft’s technologies and is a testament to the success of their business. I commend Catapult for continually extending their technical capabilities while offering a fantastic quality of service to more Microsoft customers each year.”
