The Microsoft Products and Services Agreement (MPSA) is a transactional licensing agreement for commercial, government, and academic organizations with 250 or more users/devices.Â
MPSA works best for organizations that want to license Microsoft on-premises software, cloud services, or both as needed—with no organization-wide commitment under a single, non-expiring agreement. Software Assurance is optional.
The Microsoft Products and Services Agreement (MPSA) consolidates purchasing of Microsoft cloud services, software, and Microsoft Software Assurance. Suited for organizations with 250 or more users, MPSA provides a Purchasing Account structure.
A Purchasing Account is a buying entity within your organization that you create to order and manage products and services by registering them to an MPSA. This account can be a department, an affiliate, a subset of personnel, or your entire organization. To register a Purchasing Account, you must complete a Purchasing Account Registration form and name a legal entity on the form. This connects both the purchasing entity and the legal entity to the MPSA terms. Each Purchasing Account is registered only once and each account is assigned a sector type of commercial, academic, or government. You can have Purchasing Accounts of different sector types on one MPSA. One Purchasing Account is designated as the Agreement Administrator. The Agreement Administrator manages the MPSA, oversees the participation of other Purchasing Accounts in the MPSA, and can fully view assets across all accounts.
