Where Manufacturing teams get stuck

The operational gaps we see most.

01

Disconnected shop floor data

MES, ERP, and quality systems running in isolation lead to delayed reporting and reactive decisions.

02

Inventory inaccuracy

Manual receiving and cycle counts erode trust in stock levels, driving over-ordering and missed ship dates.

03

Compliance & traceability

Lot, serial, and batch tracking demands a system of record that auditors and customers can rely on.

04

Demand volatility

Forecasting on legacy tools breaks down under tariff shifts, supplier delays, and shifting customer mix.

How we solve it

FAQ

Manufacturing questions, answered.

If yours isn’t here, ask in the consultation. We’ve probably answered it five times this month.

Can Dynamics 365 replace our existing MES, or does it integrate with it?
Both options are viable. For mid-market manufacturers, Business Central or Supply Chain Management can serve as the system of record while integrating with a best-of-breed MES via Azure Service Bus or Power Automate. For smaller shops, native Dynamics 365 capabilities often replace the MES entirely.
How do you handle lot, serial, and batch traceability for FDA-regulated products?
Supply Chain Management and Business Central both support lot/serial tracking through receiving, production, and shipping. We configure validated workflows, electronic signatures (where required), and audit-ready reporting to meet 21 CFR Part 11 and ISO 13485 expectations.
What's a realistic timeline for a mid-market manufacturer?
A focused Business Central deployment with manufacturing modules typically goes live in 4–6 months. Larger Supply Chain Management implementations with multi-site, MES, and IoT integration run 8–14 months depending on scope.
