Expertise, Customer Obsession and Respect

We have an accumulated wealth of experience in the Microsoft Dynamics Navision product offering. Our projects typically include upgrade services and support, complimenting implementation, training and ongoing development in the following areas: Manufacturing, Warehousing, Financials and Consumer Services. We also support Add-on integration and use a forward thinking approach to development, considering not just Navision, but what might come next..

We also support upgrades from 2.0, 3.0, 3.6 to 5.01, 6.01, transferring functionality to the Role Tailored Client 2009 and perform different types of integration projects in MS Dynamics Navision with other applications like C#, WPF, WCF, ASP.NET, SQL Reporting Services, published reports in Outlook, SharePoint and Browser needs.

A Unique Objective: A product that works and a staff who can effectively use and actually love the product.

A Unique Approach to Reality: We cater to organizations that realize business requirements demand a dynamic development viewpoint, knowing full well that realistic internal IT demands prohibit a consistent focus on specific systems as primary objectives and are never composed to consider impact to P&L. We build our teams to address each project as a priority, ensuring immediate action, consistent communication and a guaranteed end date to development projects. We always consider total cost of ownership (TCO) and P&L. Our approach to implementation and development also considers post launch support, usually an area where companies mop up huge profits while costing customers small fortunes in down time. We don’t develop with a goal of capitalizing on significant maintenance and support but to the contrary, our objective is to develop and train to the extent that post launch maintenance is very limited.

What’s in Our Secret Sauce?

First of all, No Secrets! Our process is 100% transparent and there is always direct access to an officer in the company. Our test engineers examine each and every solution that we develop. Doing so insures absolute minimums on implementation risk and maintenance. Because we concentrate heavily on training, end user adoption is high and is maintained through consistent support.

We guarantee that solutions will function as you would expect and in most cases, you can expect a more efficient and effective operational integrity.

Development:

Enormous attention is paid to the standards of writing C/AL code, naming conventions and filling documentation triggers. These rules are the basis for creating new applications or modifying existing ones. If new functionality is demanded, standard logic and application behavior is copied from the standard Navision objects rather than developing from scratch.

Any development begins with the creation of a development functional design document. The document is created in cooperation of our team and und users.
