Question 1

What Microsoft Dynamics 365 modules do you implement?

Accepted Answer

Our certified consultants implement the full suite of Dynamics 365 applications, including Business Central, Finance, Supply Chain Management, Sales, Customer Service, Field Service, and Project Operations. We assess your organisation's processes and recommend a module combination that eliminates redundant point solutions. Each module is configured to align with your industry's best practices rather than defaulting to out-of-the-box settings.

Question 2

How long does a typical Dynamics 365 ERP implementation take?

Accepted Answer

Implementation timelines depend heavily on scope, data complexity, and customisation requirements. A focused Business Central deployment for a mid-market manufacturer typically runs 12 to 20 weeks. A full Dynamics 365 Finance and Supply Chain rollout across multiple legal entities and countries often requires 6 to 18 months. We use a phased approach - go-live on core processes first, then expand - to reduce risk and deliver value earlier.

Question 3

Are you a certified Microsoft Dynamics partner?

Accepted Answer

Yes. QuickHire holds Microsoft Partner status with competencies in Business Applications and Cloud Platform. Our consultants carry active certifications in Dynamics 365 Finance, Supply Chain Management, Business Central, and Sales. We maintain a dedicated Microsoft Centre of Excellence that tracks release wave updates and ensures our delivery methodology reflects the latest platform capabilities.

Question 4

How do you handle data migration from legacy ERP systems?

Accepted Answer

We follow a structured data migration methodology covering extraction, profiling, cleansing, transformation, and validation. Our team maps source data from legacy systems - whether SAP, Oracle, Sage, or bespoke platforms - to Dynamics 365 entities using purpose-built migration templates. We run parallel validation cycles prior to cutover, and all migration scripts are version-controlled and fully auditable for compliance purposes.

Question 5

Can Dynamics 365 integrate with our existing SAP or Salesforce environment?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Dynamics 365 integrates natively with the Microsoft ecosystem and connects to external platforms via Azure Integration Services, Power Automate, and third-party iPaaS tools such as MuleSoft or Boomi. Common integration patterns include bi-directional sync between Dynamics 365 CRM and SAP S/4HANA for order-to-cash, and connecting Salesforce CPQ to Dynamics 365 Finance for revenue recognition. We design integrations with resilience, retry logic, and monitoring built in from the start.

Question 6

What is the difference between Dynamics 365 Business Central and Dynamics 365 Finance?

Accepted Answer

Business Central is designed for small-to-mid-market organisations needing a unified ERP covering financials, inventory, sales, and operations in a single cloud application. Dynamics 365 Finance and Supply Chain Management targets large enterprises that require multi-entity, multi-currency, multi-warehouse operations, advanced manufacturing scheduling, and deep regulatory compliance across jurisdictions. We help organisations determine the right fit based on transaction volumes, legal entity structure, and long-term scalability requirements.

Question 7

How do you approach Power Platform integration with Dynamics 365?

Accepted Answer

Power Platform and Dynamics 365 share the Dataverse data layer, which means Power Apps, Power Automate flows, and Power BI reports operate directly on Dynamics 365 data without complex ETL pipelines. We design a unified data model in Dataverse, build role-specific Power Apps for field or mobile scenarios, automate approval workflows via Power Automate, and surface operational KPIs in Power BI dashboards embedded directly in the Dynamics 365 interface.

Question 8

Do you offer post-go-live managed services for Dynamics 365?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Our managed services practice provides application management, SLA-backed incident response, monthly release wave testing, and proactive monitoring of Dynamics 365 environments. Clients typically engage us on a retainer model covering break-fix support, configuration changes, user training, and minor enhancements. We maintain separate environments for development, UAT, and production, and all changes follow a change management process with rollback procedures.

Question 9

How do you manage localisation and multi-country Dynamics 365 deployments?

Accepted Answer

Dynamics 365 includes country-specific localisations for tax, banking, and regulatory compliance in over 40 countries. We configure these localisations during design, validate them against local statutory requirements, and supplement with certified ISV extensions where the standard platform falls short. For multi-country rollouts, we establish a global template in the first country deployment and adapt it for each subsequent country to control scope and accelerate timelines.

Question 10

What does your Dynamics 365 CRM modernisation service cover?

Accepted Answer

Our CRM modernisation service covers the full commercial transformation from legacy CRM platforms to Dynamics 365 Sales and Customer Service. This includes lead and opportunity process redesign, account hierarchy configuration, sales forecasting setup, customer service case routing, SLA definition, and integration with marketing automation platforms. We conduct a current-state CRM health assessment before migration to identify data quality issues and process gaps.

Question 11

How is Dynamics 365 Field Service configured for complex service operations?

Accepted Answer

Dynamics 365 Field Service includes resource scheduling, work order management, inventory management for service vans, IoT-connected predictive maintenance, and customer portals for self-service booking. We configure the scheduling optimisation engine, define SLA commitments by customer tier, set up mobile app workflows for field technicians, and integrate Field Service with IoT platforms such as Azure IoT Hub for connected asset monitoring. The result is a reduction in truck rolls and improved first-time fix rates.

Question 12

What governance model do you use during Dynamics 365 projects?

Accepted Answer

We apply a structured project governance framework with a steering committee, a business process owner layer, and an IT delivery team. Weekly status reports track RAG status across scope, schedule, budget, and risk dimensions. We use Azure DevOps for backlog management, sprint tracking, and release planning, giving clients full transparency into delivery progress. Change requests follow a formal impact assessment process before approval to protect scope and budget.

Question 13

How do you handle Dynamics 365 upgrades and release wave changes?

Accepted Answer

Microsoft releases two major Dynamics 365 update waves annually (Wave 1 in April, Wave 2 in October), each containing hundreds of new features and platform changes. We manage this through a dedicated release management process: reviewing wave release notes, assessing impact on existing configurations and customisations, testing in sandbox environments, and communicating changes to end users before production release. Clients on our managed services retainer receive proactive release wave management as a standard deliverable.

Question 14

What security and compliance standards does your Dynamics 365 practice follow?

Accepted Answer

Our delivery methodology incorporates Microsoft's Secure Future Initiative guidelines and aligns with ISO 27001, SOC 2 Type II, and GDPR requirements. We configure Dynamics 365 role-based security using least-privilege principles, implement field-level security for sensitive financial data, enable audit logging for all entity changes, and integrate with Microsoft Entra ID for single sign-on and conditional access. We also assist clients with their own internal audit evidence packs for Dynamics 365-related controls.

Question 15

Can you migrate from Dynamics AX or Dynamics NAV to Dynamics 365?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Migration from Dynamics AX (now Dynamics 365 Finance), Dynamics NAV (now Business Central), and Dynamics GP to their modern cloud equivalents is a core competency. We have executed over 40 such migrations and maintain tooling for AX and NAV data extraction, schema mapping, and transformation. The upgrade scope includes not only data migration but also custom code re-evaluation - many legacy modifications can be replaced with standard Dynamics 365 capabilities or PTE (Per-Tenant Extension) app patterns.

Question 16

What training and change management support do you provide?

Accepted Answer

We embed a dedicated change management stream into every Dynamics 365 programme, covering stakeholder analysis, communication planning, role-based training curriculum design, train-the-trainer delivery, and adoption measurement. Training materials include role-specific quick reference guides, video walkthroughs, and in-system contextual help. We track adoption KPIs - such as login rates, task completion rates, and support ticket volumes - in the weeks following go-live to identify areas needing additional enablement.

Question 17

How do you price Dynamics 365 implementation engagements?

Accepted Answer

Pricing varies by engagement model. Fixed-price engagements are available for well-scoped implementations following our accelerator templates, providing cost certainty for standard module deployments. Time-and-materials models suit complex, multi-entity programmes where scope evolves during discovery. Managed services are priced on a monthly retainer based on the number of supported users, environments, and service level tiers. We provide a detailed effort estimate following a two-week paid discovery engagement.

Question 18

What industries have you delivered Dynamics 365 implementations for?

Accepted Answer

Our Dynamics 365 practice has delivered programmes across manufacturing, distribution, professional services, retail, financial services, healthcare, and public sector. Each industry brings distinct process requirements - for example, manufacturing clients need production orders and capacity planning, while professional services firms require project accounting and resource management. We maintain pre-configured industry solution templates that accelerate go-live by an average of four to six weeks compared to greenfield builds.
