Work we have done

Five years in the freezer

A five-year programme of advanced warehouse management at a cold-store operator. Truck and picking terminals, put-away and picking flow, all the way from the gate and back to the gate.

A freezer warehouse does not forgive detours. At working temperatures far below zero, every screen on the terminal has to be right the first time, and the flow has to follow the order the work actually has. It was built and refined in live operation, year after year, together with the people on the floor.

A robotic warehouse on the standard system

A robotic warehouse was connected to Dynamics 365, and along the way the WMS flow was streamlined and old customisations rolled back towards standard, leaving the solution easier to maintain than it was before the robots arrived.

This one is seen from the customer's side. The person behind it sat in the company with responsibility for warehouse management and coordinated the development with the Dynamics partners. That experience shapes how we run warehouse projects today.

One warehouse design, many sites

Design and implementation of warehouse management across multiple sites from one shared template, same processes, same terminal flow, local differences only where they are real.

Plus integrations to third-party WMS and to material handling equipment, so Dynamics 365 talks directly to the machinery that moves the goods.

Manufacturing, logistics and quality in one architecture

A two-year AX 2012 implementation at an offshore wind turbine manufacturer, with architectural responsibility for manufacturing, logistics and quality. The requirements for warehousing, planning, production and quality management were gathered, designed and tested as one whole.

Customisations were driven through external development partners, with design reviews and solution testing along the way, in an industry where the components are large, expensive and must be traceable.

The procurement track in a global programme

Track lead for procurement in a global Dynamics 365 programme. Workshops with the business, requirements from product development and buying, functional design documents and the handover to Microsoft's developers.

Dynamics 365 side by side with SAP

A two-year upgrade from AX 2012 to Dynamics 365 for the sales and retail side, designed to run alongside the group's SAP landscape, which kept finance, production and warehousing.

Two ERP systems in one group demand sharply drawn interfaces. Who owns which data, and where the boundary runs.

The SCM track in a larger ERP programme

SCM lead on a two-year Dynamics 365 implementation in the utilities sector, with full responsibility for procurement, sales, warehousing and planning, one track in a larger ERP programme with many parallel deliveries.

Workshops, requirements gathering, functional design documents, configuration, testing and change management, the whole track from first meeting to operations.

Ten legal entities, four countries, one plan

Project management of a global Dynamics 365 roll-out at a Nordic logistics provider. Ten legal entities across the Nordics, the Netherlands, Belgium and France, with data migration from several legacy ERP systems and Success by Design as the method.

Roll-outs at that scale are decided by sequence and repeatability, entity number seven drawing on everything entity number two learned.

Payments, banks and reconciliation for 20+ years

More than 20 years of setting up and running bank integration in Dynamics. Host-to-host connections to Danish and global banks, payment flows, electronic bank statements and reconciliation.

Payments are the place in the system where a mistake is money. The experience lies in everything that can go wrong between the bank and the bookkeeping.

The finance track on the big roll-outs

Track lead for finance and the project module through several large implementations. Chart of accounts, fixed assets, receivables/payables and project management, including a global roll-out template at an industrial group and an implementation at a utility company.

Plus six years with a utility company's ERP vendor, designing a work order module for infrastructure tasks.

Product data that stands up to an audit

Trade modules, product master data and engineering change management over many years. PIM with ECM, Subscription Billing, Business Documents and vendor invoice automation.

And the experience is twofold. Before consulting came the years on the customer side in the electronics industry. Sourcing in Asia, costing and quotation.

Payroll that adds up, since 2001

Payroll, Time & Attendance and finance in Dynamics, implemented over more than twenty years, at large and small companies, through six consultancies and independently.

A background as a payroll accountant means the work starts with what the payslip should say and the rules behind it. The module configuration comes after.

Six platform generations, three upgrades into production

From XAL through Axapta and AX to Dynamics 365. Three upgrade tracks taken into production, code upgrades in between, and AX 2012-to-D365 transformations since.

Every upgrade is also a clean-up. Customisations are folded back into standard, and the unused ones are retired.

Twelve years on the customer side

Twelve years in the same manufacturing company, from the order office to owning the ERP platform. Project management of an Axapta implementation from selection and pre-project to go-live at three sites, later extended to five sites in three countries. EDI to the suppliers, home-built forecast and planning modules, BI with a data warehouse.

It is not a single story. Two others on the team came the same way, from the controller's and the buyer's chair in a manufacturing company into consulting. That is the experience behind the line on this site. We have sat on the other side of the table ourselves.

The electronics industry from the inside

Three of the team worked in electronics manufacturing before they became consultants, more than thirty years combined on the customer side with sourcing, costing, controlling, planning and ERP operations. All three came from the same company. And today, two of our standing customers are electronics manufacturers.

Electronics manufacturing has demands of its own. Traceability at component level, customer-owned stock in your own warehouse, frequent BOM revisions. We don't need that explained first.
