We do CSP like nobody else.

Multi-Program Licensing Intelligence

Most customers feel boxed into one licensing program.

While most CSP providers focus solely on CSP, SCHNEIDER IT MANAGEMENT offers strategic guidance across CSP, Enterprise Agreements (EA), Microsoft Products and Services Agreements (MPSA), and Open Value (OV) — including hybrid setups!

This enables clients to choose the most cost-effective and scalable licensing architecture, tailored to their operational model. This can save thousands in licensing spend and gives access to more Microsoft solutions.

Regulatory-Grade Licensing Expertise

CSP setups don't meet all compliance requirements.

That's why we support commercial, nonprofit, governmental, and educational organizations with licensing architectures built for regulatory alignment.

Our services are designed for GDPR, DORA, and NIS2 compliance, include supplier criticality assessments, and offer PEPPOL-ready XML invoicing. We also advise on data residency and cross-border licensing to meet jurisdictional standards.

End-to-End Tracking & Optimization

Many customers don’t know what they’re paying for.

To solve this, we provide continuous monitoring of promotions, renewals, subscriptions, usage, and billing — all aligned with your business cycles.

This includes manual, personalized renewal reviews, co-termination planning, and proactive alerts for promo and subscription end dates. Every transaction is optimized by licensing experts, so you benefit from the best conditions at all times.

Customer Success Case

How others are succeeding in CSP

A European car manufacturer recently partnered with us to streamline their Microsoft 365 licensing and support strategy.

We first restructured their Microsoft 365 environment to match actual usage, eliminated underutilized subscriptions, and implemented a long-term cost control strategy—without any operational disruption. We then made a full licensing cost comparison across buying programs, resulting in a mixed licensing program scenario for maximum licensing cost savings. The customer now purchases licenses with us in the Cloud Solution Provider (CSP) and the Microsoft Products and Services Agreement (MPSA) buying programs to purchase different licenses at their best prices.

The customer achieved their goals by:

  • Switching to a SCHNEIDER IT MANAGEMENT Microsoft Support plan, gaining access to 24x7x365 expert support for Microsoft 365, Azure, and Dynamics 365—saving 78% compared to Microsoft Unified Support.
  • Saving on Microsoft 365 licensing by leveraging CSP and MPSA pricing, and securing a 10% discount and price-protection via 3-year promotional Microsoft 365 E5 subscriptions.
  • Booking informational Microsoft 365 workshops through our Premier Support for Partners (PSfP) agreement, including sessions on Microsoft 365 Defender and Dynamics 365.
  • Receiving unlimited licensing consultancy, including simulations, contract lifecycle management, unlimited licensing questions and proactive alerts on licensing changes.
  • Consolidating procurement across more than 30 software publishers, like Adobe, Oracle and Broadcom, simplifying vendor management and optimizing procurement.

This customer now benefits from a fully optimized Microsoft 365 environment—compliant, cost-efficient, and fully supported by our licensing experts.

FAQ

Microsoft Cloud Solution Provider (CSP) is a licensing program that lets you buy Microsoft cloud services through a trusted partner. It offers monthly billing, flexibility to scale up or down, and added value through partner support and optimization services. CSP often includes promotions and partner discounts, making it cost-effective compared to direct purchases. It can be combined with other buying programs.

The Cloud Solution Provider (CSP) program aims at customers of all sizes who want to buy Microsoft online services on a flexible basis without minimum requirements and with consumption-based billing for Azure services without commitment.

In addition to online services, you can also buy on-premises software as perpetual licenses or subscriptions through the CSP program.

Yes. We make your move from Enterprise Agreement (EA) to CSP smooth and straightforward. You stay compliant, ensure continuity, and benefit from cost optimization. Hybrid setups (e.g., CSP + MPSA) are also possible, if it’s the best option for you.

As a direct-bill CSP Partner, we work directly with Microsoft. This gives you faster provisioning, better pricing control, and direct access to Microsoft support engineers. Indirect CSPs rely on intermediaries (distributions), which slows down service and limits flexibility and support.

Direct Microsoft Enterprise Agreements are signed between Microsoft and the customer with a Software Advisor authorized as Microsoft Licensing Solution Partner (LSP). A Licensing Solution Partner (LSP) is a Microsoft Partner who is named as the Partner of record in Microsoft Enterprise agreements consisting of Enterprise Agreement (EA) enrollments, Enterprise Subscription Agreement (EAS) enrollments, or Server and Cloud Enrollments (SCE). This Microsoft Licensing Solution Partner (LSP) acts as a Software Advisor, consults your organization concerning Microsoft licensing and negotiates with Microsoft to get you the best offer for your EA.

Out of the 400.000+ Microsoft Partners worldwide, only ~100 partners are LSPs, meaning 0.025%. Hence, most of the Microsoft Partners talking about Microsoft licensing cannot actually manage or sell solutions through Enterprise Agreements and Microsoft Products and Services Agreements (MPSA). They can only sell through the Cloud Solution Provider (CSP) program, restricting them and their customers, and making them biased towards that licensing program. They cannot and will not provide you with the most optimized licensing scenario possible.

As LSP, SCHNEIDER IT MANAGEMENT is authorized to advise, manage and sell solutions across all Microsoft licensing programs. This way, we make sure you benefit from the best licensing configuration across licensing programs at all times!

Our CSP services come at no additional charge — you only pay for the Microsoft licenses you use. We don’t charge setup fees, hidden costs, or require a credit card to get started. 

For organizations that need enhanced support, we offer optional premium support plans. Explore Microsoft Support Services here: https://www.schneider.im/services/microsoft-support-services/

No. We offer flexible billing options tailored to your organization, including invoicing across departments, entities, and regions. No credit card is required. We also offer PEPPOL invoicing.

CSP is designed to be cost-effective and flexible. As Microsoft’s new preferred licensing program, it’s more cost-effective than buying Microsoft cloud services directly with a credit card because you can benefit from discounts and partner-added value.

Now, that Microsoft removed the price level discounts on EA and MPSA, CSP becomes even more attractive.

On top of that, CSP offers considerably high discounts via promotions and partner-driven discounts, making it highly competitive even for larger deployments. Partners add real value through support, consulting, and optimization services, which you don’t get with direct purchases. A great CSP partner can advise you on how to save thousands in licensing spend, especially when combining licensing programs.

Combined with the ability to scale up or down without long-term commitments, CSP gives you flexibility and savings while still leveraging enterprise-grade solutions.

Contact our experts to find out how to optimize your Microsoft licensing spend for your business.
