Simform Named Finalist for Microsoft Azure AI Apps and Agents Award

Nov 12, 2026
Simform was named a finalist for Microsoft's 2026 Innovate with Azure AI Apps and Agents Partner of the Year award for agentic AI work at Meriton.

Software engineering firm Simform says it has been named a finalist for Microsoft's 2026 Innovate with Azure AI Apps and Agents Partner of the Year award, according to a company press release. Microsoft picked its winners and finalists from more than 4,500 nominations.

The nomination was based on Simform's work with Texas Air Systems, a Meriton company, where it built AI agents on Microsoft Foundry that cut the time field technicians spend documenting completed jobs and give supervisors a single operational dashboard. Simform used its own agentic AI accelerator, ThoughtMesh, to standardise how the agents are designed and governed. This is the first time Simform has been a finalist.
