Welcome from Bernard Mustafa, PVBS CEO

Welcome to the November 2007 issue of the High-Growth Government Contractor newsletter from PVBS.

One of the most exciting days for PVBS was back in December 2005 when Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer came to DC and spoke to a crowd of over 500 government contractor executives about Microsoft's commitment to supporting them. That set the stage for the creation of the Government Contractor Solution Circle, an association of six Microsoft solutions providers, including PVBS that brought a complete and complementary set of Microsoft financial, sales, and project management technologies to the market.

Today, I am really excited about how Microsoft is committed to servicing government contractors. As you see in the interview with Microsoft's Christine Zmuda on the right, Microsoft is spending money and devoting resources to creating a government contractor community of Dynamics users. The program includes executive summits, specialized web sites, and ramped up participation on Federal news web sites, such as www.washingtontechnology.com and www.fcw.com. More and more government contractors have moved to Dynamics applications, so the timing could not be better.

On a related topic, we've issued press releases this month about how MANCON and Oberon Associates, two of the fastest growing government contractors around, have implemented Dynamics NAV as their project accounting and financial management solutions. See the press releases on the right. We are proud to have them as customers.

Finally, and speaking of community, our blog for high-growth government contractors is up and running and full of content. Check it out frequently to find out how the Dynamics NAV for government contractors community is making best use of the solution.

Best regards,
Bernard Mustafa
