TRANSFORMATIONAL HISTORY

The only constant is change, especially in the tech industry. We’ve stayed in business since 1989 by remaining constantly adaptable to implementing the latest, best tools available.  

Some things stay consistent because they remain the best way to work.

James Savage founded Concurrency in 1989 and continues to lead the company as CEO today. Alongside him, Kate Weiland-Moores serves as President, helping guide Concurrency’s strategy, culture, and continued growth as we evolve with our clients and the technology landscape.

While our leadership and core values have endured, Concurrency itself has continuously transformed alongside decades of unprecedented technological change. From the beginning, we built our business as a focused, project-scoped technology services firm designed to deliver real outcomes, not one-size-fits-all solutions.

Early on, we recognized that deep, Microsoft-centered expertise would best serve our clients. Microsoft’s enterprise platforms span cloud, data, workplace, security, and now AI, offering the breadth, flexibility, and innovation needed to support organizations at scale. That conviction has guided our direction ever since.

Since 1993, Concurrency has maintained a nearly exclusive partnership with Microsoft. Over the years, that commitment has been recognized repeatedly. We were named a Midwest Microsoft market leader in 2004, swept the Microsoft World Partner Conference in 2012 with four awards, and have earned Microsoft Partner of the Year honors 12 times across multiple categories.

In 2020, Concurrency was also named Microsoft Partner of the Year for AI and Machine Learning, a milestone that reflected years of investment in advanced analytics, intelligent automation, and applied AI, well before AI became a mainstream business imperative.

Our partnerships extend beyond Microsoft as well. ServiceNow has long been a critical part of our ecosystem, enabling organizations to operate smarter, faster, and more efficiently. Concurrency achieved ServiceNow Elite Partner status in 2018, 2019, and 2020, underscoring our ability to connect platform capabilities directly to measurable business outcomes.

Today’s era of OpenAI, Copilot, and agentic AI may feel revolutionary—but to us, it represents a natural progression. From our early leadership in knowledge management to modern AI-enabled platforms, Concurrency has always focused on anticipating what’s next and turning innovation into operational reality. The industry’s continued recognition of our work reflects that commitment.
