Microsoft Dynamics implementation & migration services

A great ERP platform poorly implemented is just an expensive problem. We've spent 25 years getting implementations right — so your business gets the system it was promised, not the one most partners deliver.

Why the implementation matters more than the software

Most mid-market businesses spend months evaluating ERP platforms and days evaluating implementation partners. That’s backwards.

Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central is an exceptional platform. But a poorly scoped implementation runs over budget. A rushed go-live creates adoption problems that take years to unwind. A partner who disappears after launch leaves your team managing a system they were never properly trained on.

We’ve been called in to fix failed implementations more times than we can count. The platform was almost never the problem. The implementation was.

That’s why everything we do is built around getting the implementation right — every time.

How we implement & migrate differently

Fixed scope, fixed price

Every project comes with a defined scope, a fixed price, and a realistic timeline. You know exactly what you’re committing to before you sign anything — no estimates that expand mid-project.

Senior consultants from day one

The consultants who scope your project are the consultants who implement it. There’s no handoff to a junior team after the contract is signed.

Built around your business

We configure Microsoft Dynamics around your chart of accounts, your workflows, and your industry requirements — not a generic template that needs to be rebuilt six months later.

Post go-live accountability

Post go-live support is defined and scoped before the project starts. You won’t be managing your first close cycle alone.

The process - from discovery to go-live

Here’s exactly what a Centrum implementation looks like — no surprises, no moving targets.

1

Discovery and assessment

We map your current environment — your system, your workflows, your data structure, your integrations, and your goals. This is where we find complexity before it becomes a problem. Most implementation issues are avoidable with thorough discovery. Most partners skip it.

Deliverable: A detailed assessment of your current environment and a clear picture of what Business Central would look like configured for your business.

2

Fixed-scope proposal

Based on discovery we produce a detailed statement of work with a fixed price and a defined timeline. Every deliverable is documented. Every milestone is clear. You know exactly what’s included before the project starts.

Deliverable: A fixed-scope SOW covering configuration, data migration, integrations, training, and post go-live support.

3

System configuration

We configure Business Central around your business — your chart of accounts, your approval workflows, your reporting structure, your integrations. This is where deep expertise separates a great implementation from an average one.

Deliverable: A fully configured Business Central environment built to your business requirements and tested internally before it reaches your team.

4

Data migration

Your historical financials, vendor records, customer accounts, open transactions, and item masters migrate cleanly to Business Central. We build and execute a structured migration plan that validates accuracy before go-live — nothing gets left behind.

Deliverable: A complete validated data migration with historical records intact and opening balances reconciled.

5

Parallel testing

Before go-live your team runs both systems simultaneously for a defined period. You validate that Business Central works the way your business works — under real conditions, with real data — before the old system is retired.

Deliverable: A tested, validated system your team has hands-on experience with before day one of live operations.

6

Go-live and beyond

We go live on a date aligned with your financial calendar. Training is delivered by the same senior consultants who configured your system. And we stay involved through your first close cycle — because that’s when it matters most.

Deliverable: A successful go-live, a confident team, and defined post go-live support built into the engagement from the start

Migrating from Dynamics GP

We know GP better than almost anyone. A significant part of our implementation work involves businesses moving from Microsoft Dynamics GP to Business Central. Mainstream support for GP ended in 2025 and extended support runs only through 2029 — which means the window to migrate on your own terms is narrowing.

Our team has spent over 25 years inside GP environments. We know how GP data is structured, where customizations live, and exactly what breaks during migration if you’re not careful. That institutional knowledge is worth more than any migration tool on the market.

For GP customers, the transition to Business Central is more familiar than most expect — and cleaner than most fear.

Your data comes with you

Historical financials, vendor records, customer accounts, and transaction history all migrate to Business Central. Nothing gets left behind.

Your team won’t start
from scratch

Business Central was built by Microsoft with GP users in mind. The logic is familiar & training closes the gap on everything new.

Your timeline is yours to control

The longer you wait the narrower your migration window gets. We help you plan a migration that works around your financial calendar — not against it.

Frequently asked questions about
Dynamics GP migration

For a mid-market business a typical Business Central implementation runs between 3 and 6 months depending on complexity, integrations, and data volume. A phased approach can get core financials live faster while additional modules follow on a defined schedule.

Most mid-market implementations fall between $30,000 and $150,000 in professional services depending on scope and complexity. We provide fixed-scope proposals so you know the full number before committing — not a range that expands as the project progresses.

No. We manage the full technical scope. Your team’s involvement is focused on business decisions — validating configuration, participating in testing, and attending training.

Post go-live support is built into every engagement. Most clients transition to an ongoing monthly support package after the initial post go-live period — keeping a senior partner available for optimization, troubleshooting, and ongoing system development.
