Choose ISSI for Your PCMA (Partner Center Maturity Assessment) and Dominate India’s Microsoft Partner Ecosystem
For Managed Service Providers (MSPs) and Independent Software Vendors (ISVs) in India, the Microsoft Partner Center is the gateway to profitability in one of the world’s fastest-growing tech markets. With Microsoft’s FY25 results showing a 39% growth in Azure, India’s partners are at the forefront of this expansion, the opportunity for partners is immense. However, navigating the Partner Center’s complexities can feel like a barrier to growth.
As the premier global leader in audit and compliance with over 10,000 assessments conducted, ISSI offers a specialized Partner Center Maturity Assessment (PCMA) to help Indian partners maximize their Microsoft investment.
The Indian Partner Opportunity: Why a PCMA is Essential
India’s digital transformation is accelerating. With 35% of SMBs planning to move to the cloud and a booming ISV market projected to grow at a 13.9% CAGR, operational excellence is key to standing out. The PCMA provides a clear, actionable roadmap to help you capitalize on this growth.
Our assessment focuses on five critical areas tailored to the Indian market:
1. Achieving Solution Partner Designations
Earning a Solution Partner Designation is crucial for credibility. We analyze your scores in Performance, Skilling, and Customer Success to identify gaps preventing you from reaching the 70-point threshold. Our customized Skilling Roadmap ensures your team’s certifications a key part of Microsoft’s ADVANTA(I)GE India initiative to train 2 million people in AI—are correctly attributed.
2. Optimizing Revenue Recognition (CPOR/PAL)
Don’t let revenue slip through the cracks. We audit your customer associations to ensure proper use of Claiming Partner of Record (CPOR) and Partner Admin Link (PAL), so you get full credit for the consumption you drive.
3. Maximizing Microsoft Commerce Incentives (MCI)
Are you maximizing your earnings? We audit your eligibility for MCI and Azure programs like Azure Migrate & Modernize, which can generate up to $100,000 per transaction. Our goal is to ensure you capture every incentive dollar you’re entitled to.
4. Unlocking Co-Sell and Marketplace Opportunities
Publishing on the Azure Marketplace is your ticket to the ISV Success program and co-selling with Microsoft’s enterprise sales teams. We help you optimize your listings and co-sell processes to ensure you’re ready to capitalize on the 13,000+ partners building solutions with Azure AI.
5. Ensuring Audit and Compliance Readiness
With our deep audit expertise, we help you build “audit-ready” practices. We ensure your proof of execution (PoE) and customer claims are robust, safeguarding your business as you grow.
The AI Frontier: Are You Ready for FY26?
Microsoft is prioritizing Frontier Partners for FY26—organizations that are not just adopting AI, but are powered by intelligence on tap. These partners are realizing 3x higher returns and 4x better business outcomes than slow adopters. Our PCMA now includes an AI Readiness Assessment to benchmark where you stand.
Assess your readiness—are you already a Frontier Partner or do you have gaps to close?
Agentic AI: Are you using AI across at least 7 business functions?
Innovation Culture: Are you democratizing AI creation for your entire team?
Governance: Do you have observability and compliance built into your AI systems?
We help you identify your AI maturity and build a roadmap to become a Frontier Partner, unlocking eligibility for strategic funding pools and Copilot GTM support.
