Winners and finalists were nominated and selected by Microsoft’s U.S. Public Sector team working throughout the nation.

“Microsoft relies on its network of dedicated partners around the globe to deliver technology solutions that empower public sector missions,” said Vince Menzione, General Manager of U.S. Public Sector Partner Strategy at Microsoft. “We are thrilled to recognize Tribridge as a Partner of the Year for its unwavering commitment to serving our public sector customers.”

The award recognizes Tribridge’s innovation in developing a variety of Microsoft-based solutions that help public sector customers transform their operations, including Tribridge CRM311®, Tribridge Grants Management™ and Tribridge Offender360®. Tribridge Offender360, adopted by multiple state corrections agencies in 2012, was highlighted for its contributions to the public safety and justice sectors.

Built on the Microsoft Dynamics CRM platform, Tribridge Offender360 leverages Microsoft SharePoint and Microsoft SQL Server to provide correctional and other public safety institutions with a scalable, cost-effective tool for managing and tracking offenders.

Tribridge Offender360 is currently being implemented in the Department of Corrections across three states.

“We are honored to be recognized by Microsoft for our innovation, especially in support of our ongoing work within the state and local government sector,” said Josh Jaquish, managing director of the Public Sector Practice at Tribridge. “If we can provide the technology that helps correctional facilities better manage offenders, then we are doing a small part to keep our communities safer.”
