ZS earns Microsoft Digital and App Innovation Solution Area recognition
ZS has earned Microsoft’s Digital and App Innovation Solution Area recognition, reflecting its expanded ability to design and build Azure-native applications, including AI applications and agents, that can be deployed and operated at enterprise scale.
For organizations investing in AI on Azure, the designation signals additional capacity to move beyond data and analytics foundations and into production‑ready applications that embed AI directly into business workflows.
“This recognition reflects a real shift for organizations ready to move AI out of pilots and into production by building Azure-native applications and agents that can be governed, scaled and reused across the enterprise,” said Mahmood Majeed, a managing principal and leader of ZS’s global digital and technology services area. “As more teams adopt agent-based ways of working, it strengthens the ability to build these capabilities on Azure with enterprise controls. It supports turning data and AI investments into production systems that improve day-to-day decision-making and reduce operational risk at scale.”
Supporting clients building Azure-native AI applications at enterprise scale
The recognition builds on ZS’s ongoing collaboration with Microsoft and its existing status as a Microsoft Solutions Partner for Business Applications and for data and AI. Together, these designations support clients that are working to connect data, analytics and application development within a single Azure environment, and demonstrate broad capability to deliver solutions with Dynamics 365 and Power Platform.
ZS’s partnership with Microsoft began in 2020 and has focused on helping organizations build and scale data and AI capabilities using Microsoft technologies. With this recognition, ZS is formally enabled to design and deliver Azure-native AI applications and agents for new and existing clients, extending that work into intelligent applications that support day‑to‑day decision-making.

ZS brings more than 40 years of experience helping life sciences organizations translate complex data into actionable insights across research and development, supply chain and commercial operations.

The designation reflects demonstrated delivery capability within the Microsoft partner ecosystem.
The recognition reinforces ZS’s role in supporting organizations that are building and operating AI-enabled applications on Azure as part of their broader technology and operating model investments.
