On October 22, 2026, HPT achieved the “Agentic DevOps with Microsoft Azure and GitHub Specialization”, recognizing its capabilities in consulting and delivering Agentic DevOps solutions across the Microsoft ecosystem. This milestone further strengthens HPT’s established capabilities in Cloud, AI, and Security, while fulfilling the final technical requirement in its roadmap toward Microsoft Frontier Partner status.
HPT strengthens Agentic DevOps capabilities across the Microsoft platform
To achieve this certification, HPT underwent a rigorous audit process designed to validate its practical capabilities throughout the entire service delivery lifecycle. The assessment covered consulting, current-state assessment, solution design, delivery, testing, post-implementation documentation, and operational readiness.
Meeting these requirements reflects HPT’s systematic investment in and standardization of its capabilities, spanning technical expertise, processes, and implementation assets. It also demonstrates HPT’s ability to translate knowledge and project experience into organizational capabilities that can be consistently maintained, built upon, and scaled across the business.
Over a six-month preparation period, Microsoft Solution Engineers from HPT’s System Integration Center (HSI), together with relevant teams, focused on deepening their expertise, fulfilling technical requirements, standardizing processes, and systematizing documentation. These efforts were aligned with HPT’s strategic shift toward Agentic AI and its goal of expanding collaboration with Microsoft in the Cloud & AI Platforms domain.
Microsoft Frontier Partner: A milestone in HPT’s AI and DevOps capability development
Developing capabilities in Agentic DevOps with Microsoft Azure and GitHub has been an important part of HPT’s broader journey. As AI becomes increasingly integrated into the software development, deployment and operations lifecycle, these capabilities enable HPT to deepen its technical expertise in this evolving landscape.
Beyond meeting Microsoft’s requirements, the process has enabled HPT to consolidate the knowledge and experience gained by its teams and through project delivery into shared organizational capabilities. These capabilities support HPT’s consulting, sales, and solution delivery activities.
Achieving the Agentic DevOps certification also marks HPT’s fulfillment of the final requirement for Microsoft Frontier Partner status. This milestone recognizes HPT’s sustained investment in and standardization of its capabilities for the Agentic AI era, while strengthening its ability to consult on and deliver AI and DevOps solutions. It also creates opportunities to expand business engagements and support customers throughout their AI transformation journeys.
Building on the Frontier Partner foundation, HPT will continue working toward Frontier Partner Specialization, a higher level of competency recognition for partners capable of delivering end-to-end AI agent solutions, from design and development to deployment, governance, operations, and security.
This direction reflects HPT’s long-term commitment to investing in people, practical delivery capabilities, and strategic collaboration with Microsoft to turn technology into tangible value for customers.
