Enterprise Implementation Accelerator: 6 - Week Dynamics 365 Business Central Blueprint

Schneider Downs

De-risk AND accelerate your enterprise Dynamics 365 Business Central implementation with a SD Digital's agile Blueprinting services

Do you view your Business Central implementation as more than a lift and shift? Are you focused on improving processes, driving organizational clarity, or transforming the way your teams work?

Large scale ERP implementations are not a one-size fits all engagement. The best way to de-risk a Dynamics 365 Business Central implementation is to invest time up front in blueprinting. Blueprinting is more than simply business requirements gathering. Blueprinting identifies clear opportunities for efficiency and cost reductions. It de-risks project budget and schedule overruns and helps eliminate the fear and uncertainty that come with ERP implementation.

A Dynamics 365 Business Central blueprint is not an academic study, nor is there a proscribed one-size-fits-all way of doing it. Blueprinting accelerates deployments by ensuring processes have been optimized before automation, data has been cleansed, and that your people are aware of the upcoming change.

The most common focus areas of blueprinting are listed below:

  • Automation
  • Process Alignment
  • Support structure
  • KPIs
  • Integration Strategies
  • Knowledge & Content Sharing
  • Governance
  • Platform architecture
  • Organizational Change Management
  • Training Approach
  • Testing Approach
  • Roadmap

Deliverables are specific to the areas of blueprinting that you find to be most valuable, however a basic blueprinting engagement will product the following deliverables:

Functional Business Requirements are based on future processes and aligned to best practices and system capabilities. This documentation becomes the foundation of training materials.

  • Technical requirements including system architecture and integration design
  • Data migration plan
  • Project Plan and Budget
  • Licensing Cost Analysis
  • Backlog of features not critical for go-live

Blueprinting engagements generally range from $25,000 to $50,000 depending on complexity of systems and number of focus areas.
