RAPID 90 · Finance & Supply Chain

Enterprise ERP, without the five-year story.

RAPID 90 delivers a controlled release of Dynamics 365 Finance and Supply Chain at one entity or site, then rolls it out wave by wave using a template that has already been proven live.

We check the fit before we agree a date or a price.

Sound familiar?

Same group, five versions of the truth.

Most people asking about this have a legacy system running out of road and a date they did not choose.

  • Every site does it differently

    Same group, same products, five versions of the same process and no single view of anything.

  • Group reporting is a monthly rebuild

    Consolidation happens in spreadsheets because the systems cannot agree.

  • The legacy ERP is running out of road

    Support is ending, or nobody left in the business understands how it was configured.

  • The last enterprise programme frightened everyone

    Years of design, a painful go-live, and benefits nobody could point to afterwards.

  • A date is being set for you

    A divestment, an acquisition or a group mandate is driving this, not an IT roadmap.

How it runs

Seven steps to the first site going live.

Scope, boundary and price are agreed before delivery starts.

  1. We agree the first footprint: Which entities, which sites and which processes go first. Enterprise scope, deliberately contained.
  2. We check the fit: How closely finance, procurement, inventory and supply chain match standard capability, and what genuinely needs building.
  3. We look at data and integrations early: Masters, balances and the systems that must keep talking. This is where enterprise timelines usually slip.
  4. We agree scope, boundary and price: A fee against the qualified first release, with later waves named rather than assumed.
  5. You see it working with your own data: Short cycles with real users and real transactions, so design assumptions are corrected while they are cheap.
  6. We prove readiness before go-live: Testing, cutover rehearsal, training and a written view of the residual risks.
  7. Live, then roll out wave by wave: The first site becomes the template. Each later wave gets faster because the pattern is proven.

Target market

Who is RAPID 90 designed for?

RAPID 90 suits organisations moving to Dynamics 365 Finance and Supply Chain Management where the scope is genuinely enterprise but the operating model can stay close to standard.

Organisation profile

Mid-market and enterprise moving to Finance and Supply Chain

Typically organisations with genuine operational scale, where the finance and supply chain requirement has outgrown a smaller platform.

  • Turnover and transaction volume that justifies enterprise ERP
  • Multiple sites, entities or countries under one operating model
  • Manufacturing, distribution or supply chain execution at real depth
  • An IT and finance function able to own the platform after go-live

Situation

A clear reason the date matters

RAPID 90 exists for organisations with a deadline they cannot move, not for teams who simply want to go faster.

  • A legacy system reaching end of support or end of contract
  • A divestment, acquisition or carve-out with a fixed separation date
  • A regulatory or reporting change with a statutory deadline
  • A failed or stalled programme that needs a controlled restart

Readiness

Able to decide at the pace the method needs

The compressed timeline works because decisions are made in days rather than weeks. That is a business commitment, not a project one.

  • A named executive sponsor with authority to settle process disputes
  • Process owners released from day one, not borrowed occasionally
  • Willingness to adopt standard where local practice is not commercially special
  • Data owners identified before migration work begins

Where it is the wrong choice

  • Requirements that are still being discovered rather than confirmed
  • Heavy bespoke development that cannot be deferred past go-live
  • Multiple legacy systems being consolidated in a single cutover
  • Data that has never been reconciled and has no clear owner
  • Organisations mid-restructure where the operating model is still moving
  • Programmes where no single person can make a final decision

If your situation sits in this column, we will say so before a date or a price is agreed rather than discover it in week six.

The trade you are making

Speed comes from going live somewhere real first.

Both lists are written down before anyone commits.

In the first release

  • One entity or site, running end to end
  • Finance, procurement, inventory and supply chain
  • Group and operational reporting
  • Balances, masters and open transactions migrated
  • Training, cutover rehearsal and hypercare

Sequenced into later waves

  • Additional entities, sites and countries
  • Advanced warehouse automation and complex manufacturing
  • Integration landscapes beyond the first site
  • Deep historic data beyond what is needed to operate
  • Advanced analytics and forecasting

Four points where we stop and check

Acceleration continues only while it is still safe.

Each one has a real option to slow down, rescope or delay.

Is an accelerated enterprise route honestly right?
Gate 1Before anything is agreed

Is an accelerated enterprise route honestly right?

The point where we say yes, yes with conditions, or not yet.

Confirmed at this gate

  • The first footprint is agreed and genuinely contained
  • Standard capability covers most of the required processes
  • Sponsorship, decision-making and data access are real, not aspirational

Decision

  • Proceed with an agreed first release
  • Proceed once named gaps close
  • A standard or assessed route instead

1. What best describes your situation?

Select one option.

If this is not the one

Two other accelerated routes.

The platform decides the route, not the size of your organisation.

Dynamics 365 CRM / Customer Engagement

RAPID 10

An accelerated route to a working customer engagement foundation where the sales or service process is well understood and close to standard.

Ideal when

  • Sales or service process already understood
  • Small number of users to onboard first
  • Limited integration in the first release
  • Decisions can be made quickly

Dynamics 365 Business Central

RAPID 30

An accelerated route to a standard finance and operations core for organisations whose processes fit the Business Central model closely.

Ideal when

  • Single or simple multi-entity finance model
  • Fit-to-standard is genuinely acceptable
  • Data available and reasonably clean
  • One clear decision-maker per area

Questions boards ask before committing.

Part of the InteliSense Delivery System

A faster route, using the same delivery system.

Proven baselines, early data work, recorded decisions and gates before every go-live. Our delivery approach explains how the method works whether you move quickly or not.

How we deliver

An honest answer first

Could your first site be live sooner?

Tell us the footprint, what is driving the date and where the data sits today. We will tell you whether this route is responsible, or which one is.
