The Microsoft Vendor Program (MSVP) is the Microsoft preferred vendor program. It was created to make it easy for Microsoft employees to work globally with a prequalified, select group of vendors—and for vendors such as you to work with us. The objective is to make working with Microsoft beneficial to all. The program is currently available in Belgium, Canada, China, Denmark, France, Germany, Hong Kong, Ireland, Italy, MDCC, the Netherlands, Norway, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Taiwan, the United Kingdom, and the United States. In the future, the program will be available in other countries and regions worldwide.
The goal of MSVP is simple: To enable new efficiencies for both Microsoft and vendors, bringing new value to the relationship that we are building together.
To give you an idea of how enthusiastic Microsoft employees are about using MSVP vendors, take a look at the MSVP Testimonial Video, available to the right.
Program Highlights
A primary purpose of MSVP is to define the way vendors do business with Microsoft, including requirements and expectations, to create a clear, straight path to success. The following are some key elements of MSVP:
- MSVP includes vendors of all kinds of goods and services.
- The program includes only vendors who are the best in providing their category.
- MSVP vendors are divided into two distinct levels—premier vendor and preferred vendor—to provide a hierarchy of benefits and visibility to MSVP vendors.
- MSVP is committed to diversity, including exceeding government-mandated goals and requiring MSVP vendors to share in this goal.
