Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central Implementation

Most ERP projects fail in the design, not the software. We start with how your business actually runs (orders, inventory, production, projects, month-end) and build Business Central around it, with a plan and budget you can hold us to.

Scope

What's included

Everything from the first workshop to your first month-end close in Business Central.

  • Discovery workshops and current-state process mapping

  • Fit/gap analysis and a written solution design document

  • Configuration: finance, sales, purchasing, inventory, warehouse, manufacturing and jobs

  • Extensions and integrations, directed by the architect

  • ISV selection and setup: Insight Works, Continia, SPS Commerce, Lanham, Avalara and others

  • Data migration with at least two test conversions before cutover

  • Role-based training, UAT, cutover plan and go-live hypercare

Approach

Our implementation approach

Typical mid-market projects run 3 to 6 months, depending on scope.

  1. Discover (2–4 weeks). Workshops by process area: what stays, what changes.

  2. Design. Solution design and a fixed scope with priced change control.

  3. Build. Configure, extend, integrate, with weekly demos instead of big reveals.

  4. Test & train. Conference-room pilots on your own data.

  5. Go live & stabilize. Cutover weekend, hypercare and your first month-end close together.

Is Business Central right for you?

Business Central fits companies of roughly 10 to 500 users that need finance, inventory, distribution or manufacturing in one system, in the Microsoft cloud. If you need something else, we'll say so in the first call.

Working with another partner? We regularly act as lead architect alongside a client's licensing partner or internal IT team. See how we work with partners.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How long does a Business Central implementation take?

Most mid-market projects take 3 to 6 months from kickoff to go-live. Scope, integrations, data quality and how fast decisions get made drive the timeline more than the software does.

How much does a Business Central implementation cost?

Implementation services usually cost a multiple of the first-year license spend, driven by modules, integrations and data migration. We give a fixed-scope estimate after discovery.

Do you sell Business Central licenses?

ERPLO is an independent consultancy. Licensing is provided through our Microsoft partner network, so you get one coordinated team.

Can you work with our existing Microsoft partner?

Yes. We regularly act as lead architect alongside a client's licensing partner or internal IT team.

What happens after go-live?

We stay through the first month-end close, then offer ongoing support, training and optimization. See upgrades, support & training.
