Tell Microsoft about your Product

Nick blogged this a while back about how ISV's could make Microsoft aware of their products.  This is once of my FAQ's and there's a well defined process to follow, due to the complexity of the intellectual property laws.  There isn't a simple way of making the relevant business groups aware of your solution or product without going through a more controlled assessment.

More detail: Microsoft has established a comprehensive review process to evaluate third party business proposals. The Opportunity Management Centre (OMC) provides you a safe and effective way to engage Microsoft with your business proposal and ensures you receive timely feedback and relevant resources. This site is designed to help you efficiently submit a business proposal for consideration by Microsoft.

How the review process works:

  • Upon receipt of your proposal, an experienced business development manager is assigned to conduct a comprehensive evaluation of your proposal with colleagues from across Microsoft's business units.
  • Proposals are evaluated against current business objectives and priorities.
  • Preliminary feedback and next steps will be communicated by email within 15 business days.
  • The Proposal Submission Tool guides you through the submission process.
