Evaluating Microsoft Dynamics Business Central for Complex Manufacturing
Background
A manufacturing company specializing in large, highly complex, engineer-to-order (ETO) machinery sought to implement Microsoft Dynamics Business Central (BC) as its ERP solution. The business integrates standard equipment, unique components, and process manufacturing in its production and offers installation and servicing for its machinery post-production.
Challenge
As the company progressed with its BC implementation, newly hired resources began questioning whether BC was the optimal solution. Given the company’s intricate manufacturing processes, leadership required a data-driven evaluation to determine the best ERP fit and mitigate risks before full deployment.

- Ensure all stakeholders’ needs are met, improving adoption and user satisfaction.
- Set expectations for ERP vendors, leading to more accurate project timelines and costs.
- Identify key business processes and inefficiencies to be addressed by the ERP.
