Bayen Group Promoted to Microsoft Copilot Jumpstart Ready Tier
Bayen Group is proud to announce that we have been promoted to the Copilot Jumpstart Ready Tier, which recognizes our company's proven ability to help organizations plan for, deploy, adopt, and extend Microsoft Copilot and agentic AI solutions with enterprise-level governance and measurable business impact. Only 1% of Microsoft partners are members of this program and an even smaller number achieve Ready Tier status. This program allows us access to funding in order to bring consulting/envisioning engagements to our clients, both in the public and private sector, for free or for a reduced price.
The Copilot Jumpstart program is an invite-only initiative designed to accelerate partner capability and customer value with Copilot and agents. Advancement to the Ready Tier indicates that Bayen Group has an established Copilot practice and services offer, with validated capabilities spanning AI + Copilot advisory, security and readiness, adoption and change management, and extensibility which includes building and deploying custom AI agents.
For Bayen Group, the Ready tier promotion reinforces our commitment to being "customer zero" with Copilot — investing in skilling, responsible AI practices, and repeatable delivery frameworks that help clients move from experimentation to scaled, secure adoption. It also deepens our alignment with Microsoft programs, resources, and community to stay at the forefront of Copilot and agent innovation.
For our clients, Bayen Group's Ready Tier status means faster time to value and greater confidence in governance and outcomes from readiness assessments and deployment planning to user enablement and ongoing optimization. Clients can also leverage Bayen Group's expertise in designing and delivering Copilot agents and integrations as well as accessing Microsoft funded envisioning and planning engagements.
"Our team worked really hard to reach Ready Tier status as we completed this in a matter of a couple months while managing client committed deliverables. With this promotion, Bayen Group can bring both Microsoft funding and our expert led assessments, deployment support and customized training to help our customers adopt AI." said Greg Saliba, Managing Partner.
