What our Dynamics 365 implementation service covers
SchwettmannTech provides a full range of Microsoft Dynamics 365 services, from initial architecture through to post-go-live support. We work across the entire Dynamics 365 application suite and tailor every engagement to the specific operational requirements of the client rather than applying a one-size-fits-all template.
- Dynamics 365 Business Central implementation — full deployment of finance, supply chain, and operations modules for mid-market businesses transitioning from legacy ERP or entry-level accounting software
- Dynamics 365 Sales and Customer Service — configuration, data migration, and user adoption programmes for CRM workloads replacing Salesforce, Sage CRM, or manual processes
- Dynamics 365 Finance and Supply Chain Management — enterprise-grade ERP implementation covering multi-entity accounting, procurement workflows, inventory management, and regulatory compliance for UK operations
- Power Platform integration — building Power Apps, Power Automate flows, and Power BI dashboards that extend Dynamics 365 functionality without heavy custom development
- Data migration and system integration — structured migration from on-premise Dynamics NAV, AX, or GP, and API-level integrations with third-party platforms including Shopify, SAP, and Salesforce
- Ongoing managed support and optimisation — tiered support agreements providing access to certified functional and technical consultants after go-live, including wave update management and continuous improvement sprints
Why UK businesses choose SchwettmannTech
UK organisations evaluating Dynamics 365 implementation partners have a range of options. The reasons clients consistently choose SchwettmannTech come down to depth of expertise, delivery structure, and a track record that is verifiable rather than simply claimed.
- Microsoft Solution Partner status — SchwettmannTech holds certified Microsoft Solution Partner designations, meaning our consultants have passed rigorous Microsoft assessments and our delivery quality is independently validated, not self-reported
- 120+ dedicated consultants — rather than subcontracting critical project work, SchwettmannTech uses its own employed consultants across functional, technical, and project management disciplines, giving clients a consistent team throughout the engagement
- Enterprise client experience — having delivered projects for organisations the scale of B.Braun and Deutsche Telekom, our project methodology is built to handle complexity, multi-country rollouts, and regulated industry requirements from the outset
- London and UK market knowledge — our consultants understand the specific compliance considerations relevant to UK businesses, including Making Tax Digital, UK GAAP requirements, and HMRC reporting obligations within Dynamics 365
- Global delivery capacity with local oversight — our India, Germany, UAE, and Cyprus offices allow us to resource projects efficiently and offer competitive rates, while UK-based project management ensures accountability and communication standards that match client expectations
Our Dynamics 365 implementation process
Every Dynamics 365 project at SchwettmannTech follows a structured delivery methodology that reduces risk, controls scope, and keeps stakeholders informed at every stage. The phases below reflect our standard approach, adapted where necessary to the specific circumstances of each client.
- Discovery and scoping — we conduct structured workshops with key stakeholders to document current processes, identify pain points, define the functional scope of the Dynamics 365 deployment, and produce a project charter that both parties sign off before any configuration begins
- Solution design — our functional architects translate the agreed scope into a detailed solution design document covering module configuration, integration touchpoints, data migration approach, and any required custom development, with clear documentation of out-of-scope items
- Configuration and development — certified functional consultants build and configure the Dynamics 365 environment in a dedicated development tenant, with development work tracked against the solution design document and reviewed in regular sprint reviews
- Data migration and testing — historical data is extracted, cleansed, and loaded into the system using structured migration templates; user acceptance testing is conducted in a staged UAT environment with documented sign-off before migration to production
- Training and change management — end-user training is delivered in formats suited to the organisation, including role-based training sessions, written reference guides, and recorded walkthroughs; change management activities are scoped to reduce resistance and accelerate adoption
- Go-live and hypercare — production cutover is managed to a detailed go-live runbook; a hypercare period of two to four weeks follows immediately after launch with elevated consultant availability to resolve issues before transitioning to a standard support arrangement
Pricing and cost
The cost of a Dynamics 365 implementation with SchwettmannTech depends on the application being deployed, the number of users, the volume of data being migrated, and the complexity of integrations required. For a Dynamics 365 Business Central implementation covering a UK SME with 10 to 30 users, project fees typically range from £25,000 to £75,000. Mid-market Finance and Supply Chain Management projects for organisations with 50 to 200 users generally fall between £80,000 and £250,000. Enterprise-scale multi-entity or multi-country programmes can exceed £500,000 depending on scope. Microsoft licensing costs are separate from implementation fees and are charged directly by Microsoft or through a Cloud Solution Provider; Business Central Essentials is currently priced at approximately £57.90 per user per month and Premium at approximately £82.20 per user per month. SchwettmannTech provides a detailed fixed-price or time-and-materials proposal following the discovery phase so clients have full cost visibility before committing to delivery.
Frequently asked questions
How long does a Dynamics 365 implementation typically take for a UK business?
Timelines vary by scope. A focused Business Central implementation for a 15-user company with clean data and limited integrations can go live in 8 to 12 weeks. A Dynamics 365 Finance and Supply Chain Management project for a mid-market manufacturer with multiple integrations and complex reporting requirements typically takes 4 to 9 months. SchwettmannTech provides a project timeline as part of the scoping output so clients have a realistic schedule before the project starts.
Does SchwettmannTech work with businesses outside London?
Yes. While we have a strong presence supporting businesses in London, we work with organisations across the entire UK including Manchester, Birmingham, Edinburgh, Leeds, and Bristol. Project delivery is conducted through a combination of remote consultancy and on-site visits where required, with no material difference in service quality based on location.
What happens if our requirements change during the project?
Scope changes are managed through a formal change control process documented in our project charter. When a client identifies a requirement that falls outside the agreed scope, our project manager produces a change request outlining the additional effort, cost, and timeline impact. No additional work begins until the change request is approved in writing, which protects both parties from scope creep and budget overruns.
Can SchwettmannTech migrate us from an older version of Dynamics, such as NAV or AX?
Yes. We have substantial experience migrating organisations from Dynamics NAV, Dynamics AX, and Dynamics GP to Dynamics 365 Business Central or Finance and Supply Chain Management respectively. These
