Setting the Scope of Work for the DDPS Engagement

After reserving the voucher, the partner can now discuss how to proceed with the engagement and set the scope of work for the DDPS engagement based on the engagement type the partner will be providing (1, 3, 5, 10 or 15-day).

To update or modify the DDPS engagement types the Partner provides, return to DDPS registration and update the customer segment, service level, and so forth. See detailed registration steps here.

Validating and reserving the voucher in VVR

The partner must first validate and then reserve the Packaged Services voucher in the Voucher Validation & Redemption tool (VVR) by providing the Voucher ID and email address of the customer's Packaged Services Contact. The Voucher ID and email address of the Packaged Services Contact are included in the invitation email sent to the customer upon voucher activation.

  • If the partner does not validate the customer's voucher, it may have already been used or is no longer valid.
  • If the partner does not immediately reserve the voucher in VVR after validating, the voucher is still available for other partners to reserve.
To get started, visit the VVR site at https://vvr.microsoft.com and follow the instructions in the following document: How to use the Voucher Validation and Redemption tool.

Conducting the Engagement

The partner has now successfully reserved the voucher and can begin executing on the service engagement. If the partner has not already done so, they can view the Readiness and Training section of this site to view technical readiness and engagement materials available to successfully deliver the DDPS engagement to the customer.

Delivery Evaluation Form

The partner provides a Delivery Evaluation form to the customer at the end of the engagement to receive feedback on their performance. This is not a required deliverable for payment.
