Here is my first entry for your project. The main concept here is a simple yet professional design that can be bused in both color and in black & white. It also scales pretty well.
Looking forward to your feedback. Thanks and have a nice day!
Very nice. I'm not sure I like the spacing because Y runs into the P. Can you try the logo in a complementing grey square background? I think the idea of the splash of bright color among the neutrals is great on #2. I'm not sure if all the other partners will like it, but I do.
On second thought, perhaps it is not the spacing but the font or font size. It seems to me that "Company" is smaller than Moore Schley, but maybe not small enough to discern that the change in font size was intentional. The logo might look a bit more balanced if you make the "Company" smaller too because the last step will be closer in size.
