Implementation of Dynamics 365
When implementing Microsoft Dynamics 365, we use our own unique methodology along with Microsoft Fast Track. This way, we are able to formulate a detailed project guideline and then kick off the project. We strive to continually improve project quality by following such project methodology – whether it’s for single-country implementations, US-Japan projects, or global rollouts where we work alongside partner companies in Asia and South America.
SI Approach
Project Method: Defines SYSCOM’s standard activities during system integration projects. Microsoft Fast Track: Defines Microsoft’s recommended best practices for deploying Dynamics 365.
