Business Wire, Feb 15, 2007

HOUSTON -- Pannell Kerr Forster of Texas, P.C. (PKF Texas), the only Houston-based accounting and technology consulting firm specializing in Microsoft Dynamics NAV, has attained Gold Certified Partner status for the second year in a row. The Gold Certified Partner status was awarded in the Microsoft Business Solutions (MBS) and Information Worker competencies. As a Gold Certified Partner, PKF Texas has demonstrated expertise with Microsoft technologies and proven ability to meet customers' needs.

The Gold Certified Partner Status is the highest level of achievement a technology consulting firm can attain as a Microsoft Certified Partner. Gold Certified Partner Status represents the highest levels of technical expertise, strategic thinking, and hands-on skills and is awarded to just 4 percent of all Microsoft Partners. PKF Texas is one of the few that also specializes in MBS, which is the family of Microsoft Dynamics financial applications, including Dynamics NAV, GP, SL, and CRM.

The Microsoft Gold Certified Partner Program provides a way for customers to identify companies that have proven their commitment and expertise in one or more specialized areas when delivering Microsoft technologies. Microsoft Gold Certified Partners must meet a higher set of criteria for each category, including enhanced certification and a portfolio of customer references, and are thus identified as the most skilled partners in specific solution areas.

"I believe this award represents our continuing dedication to being the best in Microsoft technologies," said Greg Price, Director of Business Consulting Solutions. "From our involvement in the Microsoft Business Solutions Global Development Team for Dynamics-NAV software to our ongoing commitment to the highest standard of client service, we are devoted to bringing sound accounting and technology solutions to companies. I want to thank our clients and our Dynamics NAV team for all their hard work."
