Is selling to federal customers supposed to be this much fun? The Microsoft platform and vision is so well aligned with federal business needs, Executive Order 14028, and a zero trust strategy that we have a great time selling these solutions. We’d like to give a shoutout to the creative mindset of the Microsoft federal sellers who have helped us with technical solutions and aligning us with the right ISVs to deliver more comprehensive proposals to the agencies. To the other finalists in this group, you are doing great work and we are proud to be in your company. – Steve Brugger, OCG CEO
