Best Choice for ERP in the process industry and regulated industries

Microsoft Dynamics 365 Finance & Supply Chain Management (F&SCM) is the ERP solution for companies where quality, compliance and traceability are business-critical.

Microsoft Dynamics 365 Finance and Supply Chain Management

One solution for many challenges

We must comply with regulatory requirements such as GxP, GAMP 5, or MDR – our current ERP is not designed for this.

F&SCM enables CSV- and GAMP 5-compliant validation and ensures auditable, documentation-required processes.

Our supply chain is complex – traceability, batches, quality and compliance must fit together seamlessly.

F&SCM combines batch tracking, quality control and compliance data in one integrated platform.

For FDA, EMA or REACH/CLP certification, we require complete documentation and transparency.

F&SCM supports complete validation documentation, traceability matrix, functional and test documentation – including electronic audit trails.

Microsoft Dynamics 365 F&SCM vs. SAP S/4HANA

Many companies are faced with a choice: Microsoft or SAP? Both systems are among the best in the ERP sector – but there are significant differences, particularly in regulated industries such as pharmaceuticals, life sciences, chemicals and medtech.

Our overview shows where the systems differ – particularly with regard to compliance, documentation and efficiency in the validated environment.

Dynamics 365 F&SCM Implementation

Project management: How we work

Fast, standardised, successful

Our implementation methodology relies on standard software and best practices rather than expensive custom developments. The goal: to get you started quickly with a preconfigured system – supported by rapid prototyping and industry-specific add-ons.

Short project durations

We implement your ERP in 9–12 months. Your key users actively work in the system from an early stage, see the user interface and experience initial partial successes. This makes the project tangible, transparent and process-oriented.

Two tried and tested process models

Classic - All phases run consecutively, the structure is clear, the planning simple and understandable.

Iteration - Focus on standard functions and best practices. Key users work in the system early on, data migration and integrated tests begin from the second iteration.

Requirements & tests

The project scope is clearly defined at the start. Test scenarios are available from iteration 2 onwards so that you can continuously gain security.

Knowledge transfer & support

Your key users receive practical training and later take over 1st level support for end users, thus building up internal expertise. For 2nd level support, we provide a reliable hotline and support contract and at the same time ensure the continuous optimisation of your financial processes.
