Fronde wins top honour at Microsoft awards
15 August 2008
Fronde was awarded the “2008 Microsoft Software Solution of the Year” at the 2008 Microsoft New Zealand Partner Awards. Fronde received its award for the development of the Southern Cross Medical Care Society’s new Affiliated Provider System.
The black tie event, held at the Auckland Museum, recognises partners that have used Microsoft technologies to deliver highly innovative solutions to the New Zealand market.
Fronde received its award for the development of the Southern Cross Medical Care Society’s new Affiliated Provider System. The solution provides the backbone for Southern Cross’ health insurance Affiliated Provider communications and information management systems, including contract management and claims processing.
“Southern Cross chose Fronde based upon their expertise and experience as a quality systems integrator,” said April Walker, General Manager, Information Systems at Southern Cross. “Their commitment to this project was exemplary and the final solution has delivered significant benefits to the productivity of our business,” said Walker.
Microsoft New Zealand Partner Director John Bessey said Fronde’s award-winning solution was an example of the high level of technical innovation he’d come to expect from the company.
“In recent years, Microsoft has been consistently impressed with the state-of-the-art solutions that Fronde has delivered to the New Zealand market. Its use of Microsoft technology to develop and implement business IT solutions has been at the forefront of work being done both locally and internationally.”
“The Software Solution of the Year award recognises Fronde’s technical expertise and the way in which they worked with Southern Cross to ensure the final solution drove enhanced business performance”.
“It’s amazing what happens when you combine talent, teamwork, and technology,” said Fronde General Manager, Steve Graham. “We were able to create the right environment to enable Southern Cross to make improvements to their service delivery. This isn’t the first time we have been recognised by Microsoft,” said Graham, “and I’d like to think, that if we continue striving to exceed our clients expectations, it won’t be the last.”
