Soluzioni Microsoft Dynamics per le aziende di produzione

panoramica_bigIl settore della produzione rappresenta uno dei principali motori dell'economia. I fattori di successo in questo campo sono rimasti costanti nel tempo: realizzare i prodotti giusti, nelle quantità giuste e al momento giusto, prestando la massima attenzione alla qualità e assicurando prezzi ragionevoli per i clienti. Tuttavia, oggi occorrono anche un'elevata flessibilità e continui miglioramenti.

È ad esempio necessario un elevato livello di dinamismo nella gestione delle attività aziendali per competere con i mercati emergenti, come quelli della Cina e dell'Est europeo, e per rispondere alle esigenze in continua evoluzione dei clienti. Per soddisfare questi bisogni e trarre vantaggio dalle nuove opportunità, occorre essere in grado di adattarsi rapidamente a nuovi approcci nella gestione dei prodotti, partner nella gestione dei canali commerciali e strategie nella diversificazione dell’offerta.

Microsoft Dynamics offre un'ampia gamma di applicazioni adattabili e integrate per piccole e medie imprese e organizzazioni di grandi dimensioni, disponibili attraverso una rete mondiale di Microsoft Certified Partner e completamente compatibili con i prodotti software Microsoft, per automatizzare e ottimizzare la gestione finanziaria, la relazione con i clienti e la catena logistica.

Vantaggi delle soluzioni Microsoft Dynamics per le aziende di produzione

Con le soluzioni Microsoft Dynamics, le aziende manifatturiere possono:

• Integrare le informazioni e facilitare la collaborazione. Da oggi è possibile integrare le informazioni tra i reparti di progettazione, produzione e i fornitori. Ad esempio, se i progettisti decidono di apportare modifiche ad un prodotto, il reparto operativo è in grado di conoscere tutti i dettagli immediatamente. E per fare in modo che i fornitori siano in grado di rispondere adeguatamente alla maggiore agilità del reparto di progettazione, queste informazioni devono essere integrate nel sistema ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) aziendale. La funzionalità per la gestione delle informazioni sui prodotti e l'integrazione fra soluzioni CAD (Computer-Aided Design) e Microsoft Dynamics hanno aiutato numerosi clienti a migliorare i processi legati alla progettazione. I progettisti possono controllare gli errori rilevati nei disegni e i responsabili della produzione possono avere la certezza di utilizzare i progetti più recenti per la realizzazione dei prodotti. I portali aziendali consentono di condividere tramite il Web le informazioni ricavate da diversi sistemi, garantendo la dinamicità delle attività di business arrivando a migliorare la soddisfazione dei clienti, in termini di qualità del prodotto o personalizzazione dello stesso.

• Garantire un servizio clienti di qualità superiore. Stipulare un contratto o realizzare una vendita non basta. Per assicurarsi la fedeltà dei clienti, è necessario offrire eccellenti servizi post-vendita. Le soluzioni Microsoft Dynamics permettono di tenere traccia dello storico del prodotto, dalla fase di ideazione fino alla configurazione finale. Questo consente, ad esempio, agli addetti al servizio di manutenzione di poter prevedere quali componenti di un prodotto devono essere revisionati in quali tempi. Microsoft Dynamics CRM permette di accedere a informazioni storiche dettagliate sui clienti, garantendo la capacità di soddisfare appieno i requisiti previsti dai contratti SLA (Service Level Agreement).

• Fornire stime e preventivi accurati. Le richieste dei clienti possono essere efficacemente allineate alle capacità produttive dell'azienda, mantenendo una linea di prodotti standardizzata e sfruttando le esperienze passate per consigliare ai clienti i prodotti migliori. Le soluzioni Microsoft Dynamics aiutano a migliorare la fase di pianificazione dei componenti standard, riducendo i tempi di consegna dei prodotti. Microsoft Dynamics CRM consente di registrare in modo accurato le richieste dei clienti e di riutilizzare le informazioni per i preventivi successivi.

• Garantire la flessibilità della pianificazione di produzione. Spesso i responsabili della pianificazione della produzione hanno l'esigenza di mantenere i vari processi separati e visibili, al fine di associare le specifiche richieste dei clienti alle risorse adeguate. Quando nei processi di produzione si verificano problemi, è necessario apportare modifiche a livello di pianificazione o progettazione. Tuttavia, spesso queste modifiche vanno perse nell'insieme delle attività e dei dati di produzione. Per aiutare le aziende a reagire efficacemente alle situazioni di questo tipo, Microsoft Dynamics supporta numerosi modelli di produzione, tra cui ETO (Engineer-To-Order), MTO (Make-To-Order), MTS (Make-To-Stock) e processi misti. È l'azienda a decidere e definire le best practice e le modalità di esecuzione del sistema di pianificazione.

• Gestire le commesse in modo efficace. Un'efficace gestione delle commesse permette di tenere sotto controllo risorse come materiali, capacità, progettisti, addetti ai servizi, percorsi critici e margini di tempo, assicurando il rispetto delle scadenze. Inoltre, consente di conoscere lo stato di avanzamento delle attività e fornisce una visione complessiva delle commesse. Le soluzioni Microsoft Dynamics permettono di definire i budget, gestire la fatturazione, controllare le spese e tenere traccia nei minimi dettagli di tutte le attività e risorse relative a un progetto, sfruttando al tempo stesso le informazioni sulle commesse in corso o precedenti per migliorare i processi ed evitare errori.

Microsoft Dynamics für die Medien- und Unterhaltungsbranche

hero-medien-unterhaltung

Immer am Puls der Zeit – mit den Branchenlösungen von Microsoft Dynamics für die Medien- und Unterhaltungsbranche

Der Siegeszug des Internets hat die Medienbranche nachhaltig verändert: In Medien, Unterhaltung und Kultur hat die Digitalisierung von Inhalten neue Märkte hervorgebracht, und zu bekannten Formaten sind neue hinzugetreten, z. B. die Vielzahl von Onlineportalen und Blogs. Aller bisherigen Schwarzmalerei zum Trotz kann von einem Untergang der klassischen Medien keine Rede sein. Ganz im Gegenteil: Heute existieren ähnliche Informationsangebote nebeneinander auf unterschiedlichen Kanälen, die alle ganz eigene Marktchancen und Umsatzpotenziale bieten. Hier auf unseren Internetseiten für die Medien- und Unterhaltungsbranche finden Sie praxisorientierte Informationen zu Markttrends und technischen Entwicklungen sowie Branchenlösungen von Microsoft Dynamics-Partnern.

Mit Branchenlösungen von Microsoft Dynamics decken Sie die Geschäftsanforderungen Ihres Unternehmens in der Medien- und Unterhaltungsbranche ab. Ihre besonderen Vorteile: Sie erhalten eine maßgeschneiderte Software und profitieren von dem Know-how unserer Partner, die sich auf Ihre Branche spezialisiert haben.

Mehrfachverwertung von Content: Wie sich mit denselben Ressourcen mehr Gewinn erwirtschaften lässt

Ein Buch ist mehr als nur ein Buch. Ein Artikel ist mehr als nur ein Artikel. Beide Produkte stellen im Grunde genommen lediglich verschiedene Formen der Verwertung dar. Die Ressource eines Verlags ist deshalb nicht das Buch oder der Artikel. Grundmaterial ist der Inhalt oder neudeutsch Content. Es ist die Aufgabe der Verlage zu entscheiden, welches Produkt aus dem „eingekauften“ Inhalt entstehen soll.

Den vielschichtigen Wert der Ressource Content haben viele Medienunternehmen in den vergangenen Jahren erkannt. Konsequenterweise setzen sie deshalb auf die Mehrfachverwertung und verbessern somit ihre Wertschöpfung. Konzentrierten sich Buchverlage früher nur auf die Vermarktung von Büchern, setzen viele den Inhalt heute neu in Form von Hörbüchern um und erschließen sich damit einen neuen Markt. Fachverlage publizieren Artikel nicht mehr nur in einer Zeitschrift, sondern setzen auf eine Zweitverwertung in anderen verlagsinternen Magazinen oder komponieren aus bereits veröffentlichten Inhalten Dossiers und Themenhefte. Nicht zuletzt spielt die Veröffentlichung von Inhalten wie Nachrichten, Artikel oder Bücher als E-Books im Internet eine zunehmend wichtige Rolle.

Dabei geht es nicht nur um den Verkauf von Content an Endkonsumenten, sondern auch um den Handel zwischen Unternehmen. So stellten Mitarbeiter des Beratungsunternehmens PricewaterhouseCoopers schon 2001 in einer Untersuchung fest, dass Medienunternehmen, die sich an diesem Geschäftsmodell des B2B-Handels (Business to Business) nicht beteiligen, „in Zukunft empfindliche Rückgänge bei den Umsatzerlösen verzeichnen werden“. Ohne IT-gestützte Verwaltung und Erfassung der Inhalte und Arbeitsprozesse kann die Verlags- und Medienwelt die sich bietenden Möglichkeiten nicht oder nur rudimentär nutzen. „Klassische Medienunternehmen […] müssen ihre Produktionsabläufe von Grund auf umstellen“, schrieben die Marktforscher von PricewaterhouseCoopers den Verlagen ins Stammbuch.

Content und Unternehmenswerte gemeinsam managen

Die Unterstützung durch Content-Management-Systeme zur Katalogisierung, Verwaltung und Bearbeitung von Inhalten sowie ein System zum Management von Urheber- und Verwertungsrechten sind nur Teilaspekte dieser angemahnten Umstellung. „Um Content profitabel mehrfach zu verwerten, muss man die betreffenden Kosten ermitteln und die erbrachten Leistungen auch berechnen können“, gibt Knut Nicholas Krause, Geschäftsführer der knk Business Software AG, zu bedenken. Sein Unternehmen vertreibt eine auf das Verlags- und Medienwesen zugeschnittene Branchenlösung auf Basis von Microsoft Dynamics. „Nur wenn das verwendete ERP-System verschiedene Verwertungsformen abrechnen kann, realisieren die Verantwortlichen die Chancen, die sich aus einer Weiterverwertung der vorliegenden Inhalte ergeben und bauen neue Geschäftsmodelle auf“, sagt Krause. „Haben die Verlage oder Medienhäuser kein automatisiertes System, das die Kosten des redaktionellen Einkaufs und der Content-‚Schöpfung‘ erfasst und das alle Vermarktungswege unterstützt, müssen sie die Kosten und Erlöse nachträglich von Hand berechnen. Das ist umständlich und führt oftmals zu Fehlkalkulationen, aber auch zu Widerständen bei den damit belasteten Mitarbeitern. Dann kann Mehrfachverwertung – statt Zusatzeinnahmen zu erschließen – schnell unprofitabel werden.“

Im Idealfall setzen die Contentanbieter auf eine kombinierte Lösung aus Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) und einem Content-Management-System (CMS). Das Content-Management-System erlaubt die schnelle und effiziente Umwandlung der Inhalte in das benötigte Format, die dabei stets an einer einzigen Stelle gespeichert werden. Das ERP-System ermittelt nicht nur die genauen angefallenen Kosten und Erlöse für die Inhalte und erstellt die zugehörigen Nachfragebilanzen, sondern liefert auch weitere professionelle Werkzeuge für die Vermarktung, z. B. Funktionen für Customer Relationship Management (CRM).

Auch kleinere Verlage, die sich ein CMS nicht leisten können, sollten nicht auf ein ERP-System verzichten. „Nur mit einem ERP-System kann man auch Marktnischen erschließen, weil man damit jederzeit weiß, was das kostet und wo und wie Gewinne entstehen“, resümiert knk-Geschäftsführer Krause.

Microsoft Dynamics AX 2009 - Panoramica

Microsoft Dynamics AX 2009 è una soluzione di gestione aziendale integrata e flessibile, in grado di agevolare i processi decisionali nelle organizzazioni di medie e grandi dimensioni.

Fondato su basi tecnologicamente avanzate e di provata efficacia, Microsoft Dynamics AX presenta unfunzionamento analogo a quello di software Microsoft già noto agli utenti come Microsoft Office System, con cui è completamente integrato. Assicura pertanto una curva di apprendimento estremamente ridotta che consente al personale di essere immediatamente operativo e di concentrarsi sugli obiettivi aziendali.

Con l’automazione e la semplificazione delle attività finanziarie, delle relazioni con i clienti e dei processi della supply chain, Microsoft Dynamics AX unisce persone, processi e informazioni, indipendentemente dalla loro posizione, accrescendo la produttività, l’efficienza e consentendo ai dipendenti di guidare l’azienda al successo.

Aiuta le persone a lavorare meglio

Nel mondo degli affari, la produttività e l'efficacia del singolo influiscono direttamente sui profitti. Fornisci ai collaboratori strumenti familiari e semplici che consentono di lavorare efficacemente e prendere decisioni con quella celerità che l’impresa moderna richiede.

• Consenti al personale di concentrarsi sulle attività di business, piuttosto che sull'apprendimento delle nuove applicazioni, con una soluzione che richiama come interfaccia e funzioni l'esperienza utente degli altri prodotti Microsoft.

• Lavora in modo efficace con il Role Center, un'interfaccia utente ottimizzata in base ai ruoli aziendali che aiuta i collaboratori a organizzare, assegnare priorità e accedere ad attività e informazioni, tutto da un'unica finestra.

• Espandi le capacità decisionali con strumenti automatici di Business Intelligence e reporting, che aiutano il personale ad analizzare i dati attraverso indicatori KPI dashboard, Microsoft Office Excel, Business Analytics in Microsoft Dynamics AX e Microsoft Office PerformancePoint Server 2007.

• Consenti ai collaboratori di interagire con i dati e le informazioni presenti in Microsoft Dynamics AX,direttamente dalle applicazioni di Microsoft Office.

• Facilita la comunicazione con dipendenti, clienti e partner, utilizzando strumenti di comunicazione e collaborazione grazie all'integrazione con Microsoft Unified Communications.

RoleCenterScreenshots

L'interfaccia utente rende Microsoft Dynamics AX semplice da usare: i centri gestione ruolo aiutano i collaboratori ad assegnare le priorità al proprio lavoro e acquisire una migliore comprensione delle informazioni rilevanti.

Trasforma i cambiamenti in opportunità

Per tenere il passo della concorrenza, le aziende sono chiamate a espandersi in nuovi paesi, a lanciare nuovi prodotti e servizi e potenziare i punti di forza dell'attività attraverso fusioni e acquisizioni. Con Microsoft Dynamics AX, è possibile gestire con successo la crescita e il cambiamento, creando rapporti redditizi all'interno della supply chain e adattando rapidamente i processi interni per rispondere ai cambiamenti della domanda.

• Microsoft Dynamics AX offre un'architettura orientata ai servizi, stretta integrazione con le tecnologie Microsoft e Web Services in grado di supportare scenari commerciali complessi tipicamente gestiti da aziende che operano in contesti internazionali.

• Automatizza la collaborazione all’interno della supply chain e lo scambio di documenti con i diversi partner grazie a Microsoft BizTalk Server e a Microsoft Office.

• Crea e modifica rapidamente flussi di lavoro personalizzati per trarre vantaggio da nuove opportunità e adattarsi velocemente ai requisiti del settore e dei clienti, in costante cambiamento.

• Adatta la soluzione alle modalità di lavoro dell'azienda (non il contrario)

• Soddisfa esigenze altamente specializzate tipiche del tuo settore con Microsoft Dynamics AX Industry Solutions (in inglese) o o soluzioni ad hoc realizzate dai Partner Microsoft Dynamics.

• Grazie ad un sistema di licensing (in inglese) flessibile puoi scegliere il package più adatto alle tue esigenze attuali e aggiungere nuove funzionalità nel tempo.

• Capitalizza gli investimenti attuali in servizi e tecnologia Microsoft per contribuire a garantire un ridotto time-to-benefit.

Mettiti in gioco, a livello mondiale

Oggi per gestire un business globale o l'espansione oltre i confini nazionali verso nuove sedi o succursali, le opportunità commerciali possono comportare un allargamento della base clienti.
Microsoft Dynamics AX è progettato per gestire la complessità di un'azienda globale consolidando e standardizzando i processi e fornendo visibilità nell'intera organizzazione.

• Semplifica l'espansione oltre i confini nazionali grazie alle specifiche localizzazioni, che consentono di utilizzare più lingue e valute e la conformità ai requisiti normativi locali per oltre 36 paesi.

• Consolida i dati finanziari, operativi e dei clienti a livello di gruppo sia per costruire un vantaggio strategico che per migliorare i rapporti con clienti, partner e fornitori.

• Uniforma gli standard per contribuire a garantire la qualità centralizzando i processi, condividendo le inziative di successo e ampliando la gestione della supply chain a più sedi e divisioni.

• Gestisci e controlla le KPI globali e locali con strumenti di reporting e analisi sofisticati e intuitivi. Combina la soluzione con applicazioni di Business Intelligence per potenziare le capacità analitiche essenziali a gestire un ambiente aziendale complesso.

• Fornisci al personale accesso in tempo reale a indicatori KPI, scorecard e dati attraverso l'Enterprise Portal in Microsoft Dynamics AX. E con PerformancePoint Server o Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007, i responsabili delle decisioni chiave possono lavorare con informazioni critiche, senza effettuare l'accesso a Microsoft Dynamics AX.

• Gestisci il deployment in modo efficiente e uniforme con Microsoft Dynamics Sure Step, una metodologia standard e globale che semplifica i processi di implementazione e aggiornamento.

 

Garantisci il rispetto delle regole

Le aziende devono adempiere a una miriade di requisiti normativi che variano notevolmente a seconda del paese e della regione. Microsoft Dynamics AX può contribuire a ridurre il rischio e le responsabilità legate alla corporate governance, alla conformità normativa e alle iniziative per clienti.

• Centralizza e condividi la corporate governance con il Compliance Center, uno strumento integrato per la gestione delle policy, documenti di processo e reporting.

      Microsoft Business Solutions-Axapta Product Builder

      DynamicsAxNew

      Microsoft® Business Solutions–Axapta® Product Builder simplifies and streamlines the process of ordering, planning and producing customized products, helping you to win more orders and increase customer loyalty.

      Key Benefits:

      - Your customers, vendors and employees can easily configure customized products

      - Deliver customized products faster and more cost effectively by reducing the manual work involved in designing, planning and producing them

      - An easy to use system that adapts to the needs of your customers and employees

      Microsoft Axapta Product Builder enables your employees, as well as your customers, to configure complex products via a Microsoft Windows® client or over the Web.

      Microsoft Axapta is an all-in-one solution that gives you real-time connectivity across your business. The Product Builder is designed to work with other key functional areas in Microsoft Axapta, including the Enterprise Portal, Master Planning, Production, Sales and Purchasing to shorten delivery cycles and optimize product design and production planning.

      Efficient configuration of customized products

      Both your customers and your employees can use the Product Builder to configure customized products and quickly obtain accurate pricing and delivery dates. Your employees can configure products using the Product Builder within the Microsoft Axapta client. In combination with Microsoft Axapta Enterprise Portal, your customers can configure products through your company Web site to match their unique needs. With Microsoft Axapta Product Builder, your business is open to your customers 24/7.

      The Product Builder enables you to create flexible product models which define each product’s configurable options according to variables such as color, size and materials. Products can then be configured which match your customers’ individual requirements based on the options provided in the product models.

      When the product has been configured, your customers receive up-to-date pricing and delivery information based on their choices. Because Product Builder links to other modules within Microsoft Axapta, updates to products, prices and lead times are automatically reflected throughout the solution and on your company Web site. Your customers will always be kept up-to-date on the status of the products they want.

      DynamicAxProductThe Product Builder provides information on the price and delivery date for configured products

      Deliver customized products faster and more cost effectively

      Setting up the product models in Microsoft Axapta Product Builder is fast and efficient and reduces the potential for error. Through a series of menus and options, you define the criteria for the product models that are then used to configure products for individual orders.

      When products are configured, the bills of material (BOM) and production routes are automatically generated for each sales order line. This results in less manual work required in production planning and scheduling and faster delivery of customized products to your customers. Pricing is also automatically calculated for each item on the configured BOM. And, as the Product Builder is connected in real time to the Master Planning module, delivery dates are calculated immediately with consideration of on-hand inventory and capacity availability.

      Changes to product specifications are easily managed within the Product Builder. As BOMs are not pre-defined but are defined as products are configured, changes made to product models are reflected in BOMs created from that point on. This avoids the need to manually change hundreds of BOMs when changes to a product specification are made; you make the change once in the product model and that is all.

      Microsoft Business Solutions–Axapta

      Microsoft Axapta Product Builder is part of Microsoft Business Solutions–Axapta, a customizable, scalable and global Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) solution that supports connectivity with your business community and provides you with a fast and powerful way to gain competitive advantage.

      Microsoft Dynamics CRM for Government

       CRM for Government
      State and local government and federal agencies can serve citizens and businesses more effectively with Microsoft Dynamics CRM services for government. Your organization can:
        - Deliver timely, high-quality service that focuses on citizens’ needs. - Automate processes to improve efficiency and reduce costs. - Use technology to support collaboration and decision making across departments and agencies. - Rapidly deliver e-government, citizen service, and other government applications with the xRM framework

      Business Intelligence

      With access to real-time information and analysis, government agencies or organizations can use CRM tools to identify trends, evaluate citizen interactions with departments and agencies, and create strategies to enhance service and—at the same time—reduce costs.
        - Capture and track data to respond quickly to changing constituent needs and legislative requirements. - Perform critical trend analysis based on real-time information. - Give administrators a real-time graphical view of organizational performance—from their desktops or mobile devices—with the ability to drill deeply into details.


      Case Management

      Social service agencies and related organizations are faced with growing caseloads and shrinking budgets. Microsoft Dynamics CRM case management tools help your agency increase its efficiency and reduce costs with streamlined processes and greater access to your critical data—all in one place.
        - Centralized client records to remove the barriers to cross-agency collaboration. - Use automatic workflows to increase employee effectiveness. - Easily schedule follow-up appointments and use alerts for proactive notification. - Provide mobile access to constituent and case information, so workers in the field can be more productive.


        Contact Center/311

        Improve citizens’ ability to contact your agency—and your agency’s response time—with the Microsoft Dynamics CRM Contact Center/311 solution for call center, routing, and CRM integration. The faster your response, the greater value your agency can deliver to the communities you serve.
          -Use electronic tools, such as interactive voice response (IVR) in combination with contact-center agents to speed issue resolution of phone inquiries. - Give knowledge workers the ability to work within Microsoft Office Outlook to review prior contacts and update records when responding to e-mail requests. -  Take advantage of a reporting dashboard to sort and report incidents by contact type (Web, phone, or e-mail) or by case type, case severity, or other key data to help ensure timely service.


          Constituent Management

          Managing your constituents’ interactions with your organization is critical to your effectiveness. Because Microsoft Dynamics CRM looks and acts like an extension of Microsoft Office Outlook, your employees will find it easy to use, so they can respond quickly to citizen needs.
            - Provide highly secure, role-based access to constituent data. - Give employees relevant constituent information from one, centralized location. - Track constituent inquiries and requests, regardless of channel. - Target key messages to specific audiences and within specific geographic areas. - Automate workflows to improve service. - Get powerful analysis and reporting tools to simplify the identification of needs and problems and proactively address them.


          Field Inspection

          Microsoft Dynamics CRM helps personnel work from almost anywhere with highly secure access to constituent data and case management capabilities. They can gather site information, including photography, and resolve issues quickly with a history of an individual’s agency interactions.
            - Give field personnel the ability to track applications, licensing, permits, and other relevant data from remote sites. - Collect, compile, and organize data from the field or remote offices and then synchronize it with other organizational software. - Automate code enforcement at various levels of government. - Integrate with geographic information systems such as Microsoft Virtual Earth and ESRI to display case information on maps.


          Funds Management

By manipulating data from various sources in a highly secure environment, it’s easier to analyze the results of funded programs.
            - Track key performance indicators (KPIs)—such as job creation by city, county, and state—as well as related metrics, to determine the effects of funding. - Visualize data in rich KPI dashboards and interactive maps. - Use pre-populated content including legislative and regulatory links, report templates, and newsfeeds. - Improve governance and transparency through automatic capture of actions in a workflow history.


            Grants Management

                        Microsoft Dynamics CRM – Case Studies

                        DynamicsCRMCaseStudies
                        2B Solutions Technology Consultant Secures New Business, Exceeds Customer Expectations
                        When Microsoft® Gold Certified Partner 2B Solutions experienced fast growth in its Microsoft Dynamics® CRM practice, it looked for ways to secure all pending business, use resources more effectively, control costs, and increase customer satisfaction. With sound methodology, best practices, guidance, and documentation, the Microsoft Dynamics Sure Step Methodology proved to be a comprehensive business-enabling resource. Since 2B Solutions adopted the methodology, it has used Sure Step to scope every implementation project and close a significant volume of new business. Clearly set expectations and careful planning boost customer confidence and help customers realize solution benefits rapidly. And, with Sure Step tools and materials, 2B Solutions minimizes the cost and risk of complex projects, streamlines technical training, and gains valuable efficiencies in its resource utilization.
                        “Following the Sure Step Methodology, we offer detailed statements of work and have secured the business every time. We’ve also won new public-sector customers on the merits of this approach.”
                        Jeff Cross, President, 2B Solutions

                        Situation

                        Microsoft® Gold Certified Partner 2B Solutions, headquartered in Birmingham, Alabama, was a 2006 Microsoft Technology Innovation Partner of the Year Finalist for Mobility Solutions. The company’s technology experts consult with business customers and deliver solutions to help them gain more value from key relationships and flexibly track inventory and assets while on the go and at business locations.

                        2B Solutions implements Microsoft Dynamics® CRM for customers who want to increase the productivity of critical business relationships. The company’s customers thrive in a wide variety of market segments, with heavier concentrations in education, government, and healthcare. Often, the company’s technologists customize Microsoft Dynamics CRM for specialized business requirements or integrate it with 2B Solutions’s mobile technologies. As Jeff Cross, President of 2B Solutions, explains, “We began by supporting and enhancing the more traditional customer sales and marketing operations, but have gone far beyond that. We now aim to help our customers generate greater returns from their relationships with their stakeholders and contributors.”

                        With 2B Solutions employing Microsoft Dynamics CRM in more demanding and complex scenarios, smart project planning and most efficient use of limited resources—people’s time and budgets—became critical. Says Cross, “As we expected our growth to continue and our workload to be challenging, we wondered if there were better ways to prepare, structure, and run our implementation projects.” The company also wanted to identify a reliable, comprehensive source of documentation for Microsoft Dynamics CRM to help standardize and deepen employee familiarization, and reduce training time.

                        In addition, 2B Solutions sought a way to ensure customers firmly committed to projects that the company’s consultants had spent time discussing and scoping with them to avoid any drop-off that would result in a loss of revenue. Closely connected to that goal was the intent to increase customer satisfaction. More specifically, the company wanted to ensure customers received all necessary information related to projects and technologies. With that information, customers would have a full understanding of the solution’s capabilities to harbor appropriate expectations and be in a position to put Microsoft Dynamics CRM to effective use immediately after an implementation.

                        Solution

                        Available through the Partner Foundation Plan for Microsoft Dynamics, the Microsoft Dynamics Sure Step Methodology is a key benefit of the plan. 2B Solutions had already invested in the Partner Foundation Plan and thoroughly evaluated what was available within the framework of the Sure Step Methodology, which provides guidance to streamline solution implementations and complete them successfully. Sure Step Methodology resources comprise a large repository of proven-to-be-effective templates, tools, and best practices, including specific content and tools for each product within the portfolio of Microsoft Dynamics solutions.
                        “The Sure Step Methodology helps us minimize the risk potential risks in our projects, which in turn frees us up to pursue new business with renewed focus.”

                        Jeff Cross, President, 2B Solutions
                        2B Solutions adopted the Sure Step Methodology as the framework for efficiently planning and completing software implementation projects. Available to 2B Solutions as a download, the Sure Step Methodology can scale to support projects of any size—from relatively simple upgrades to large-scale deployments. From diagnostics during the sales cycle, on to solution deployment and operation, the Sure Step Methodology develops through six distinct phases of a software project; 2B Solutions has incorporated this phased approach into its project management. Flowchart diagrams help the company’s consultants make timely, effective use of the tools, templates, and detailed best practices provided for each project phase. In addition, the flowchart diagrams help the 2B Solutions project team and its customers set up all the roles and accountabilities that play a role in completing a project.

                        The company also uses the extensive documentation accessible within the Sure Step Methodology to grow the skills of both new and experienced employees, and enhance team members’ professional standing with a deep education in Microsoft Dynamics CRM. Sure Step Methodology technical documentation continues to serve as reference material during 2B Solutions’s projects.

                        Among other recommended practices, the Sure Step Methodology assists in creating a complete, highly detailed scope of work before projects are underway. “As soon as a customer commits to a project, our team carefully reviews the scope-of-work document so that everybody understands the requirements, project milestones, and criteria for success,” says Cross. Using the scope of work, project managers:
                          Plan resources. Precisely identify tasks and action items. Set deadlines for the distinct phases of a project. Remain in close contact with the customer to make sure 2B Solutions meets or exceeds expectations.
                        Clear definition of project scope means that consultants and technologists immediately know when a customer request may result in a digression from the project path or present an unplanned risk. If the latter is the case, 2B Solutions issues a risk warning to the customer, asking for review and discussion so that the customer and consultants together can mitigate the risk and adjust the project scope if needed.

                        Following the Sure Step Methodology guidance, 2B Solutions adjusted the categories that the company uses to allocate and track employee time on projects. Managers review this information to keep projects on track within budgetary guidelines. The Sure Step Methodology enables a transparent information presentation that provides granular, flexible drill-down capabilities. Those, in turn, give project managers an easy way to review the details of project events, assess any changes to be made in project delivery, forecast the projected outcome of changes in resource allocations, and keep projects on track with customer requirements.

                        Benefits

                        For 2B Solutions, adoption of the Sure Step Methodology accelerates business growth, improves customer satisfaction, and enhances the efficiency of resource utilization. “The Sure Step Methodology helps us take our company to the next level of success,” states Cross. “It’s an invaluable resource that reinforces our expertise, ensures accountability, and offers practical ways to act on opportunities to grow our business and make it more efficient.”

                        Close More Business with Better Customer Experience
                        Using the Sure Step Methodology, 2B Solutions finds it easier to obtain firm customer commitments and steadily grow its customer relationship practice. “Following the Sure Step Methodology, we offer detailed statements of work and have secured the business every time,” says Cross. “We’ve also won new public-sector customers on the merits of this approach.”

                        “We’re enthusiastic about the potential of the Sure Step Methodology to drive productivity. We will adjust the way we work whenever we see the beneficial impact of practice enhancements.”
                        Jeff Cross, President, 2B Solutions

                        2B Solutions has seen first hand how the Sure Step Methodology enhances the experience of its customers. Customers often mention to the 2B Solutions consultants working with them that they feel the company’s approach is thorough, well organized, and completely in line with their goals. Customers also appreciate the fact that every activity in a software implementation follows the steps and schedule outlined in the scope of work so that they always know when and what to expect next. “The Sure Step Methodology gives even the most complex projects a dependable orientation that keeps everybody on track,” says Cross.

                        Boost the Productivity of Individuals and Teams 2B Solutions can ensure its consultants’ proficiency and effectiveness through the comprehensive documentation and prescriptive guidance available for Microsoft Dynamics CRM through the Sure Step Methodology. What’s more, employees can review the materials on their own without requiring a significant portion of somebody else’s time for training. Says Cross, “In contrast to earlier times, our managers’ workload in familiarizing staff with the intricacies of Microsoft Dynamics CRM and how to meet customers’ challenges is a fraction of what it used to be.”

                        2B Solutions expects to modify its team collaboration process in response to the experience gained in implementations informed by the Sure Step Methodology. “We’re enthusiastic about the potential of the Sure Step Methodology to drive productivity,” says Cross. “We will adjust the way we work whenever we see the beneficial impact of practice enhancements.”

                        Generate Savings, Reduce Risk
                        After having managed a number of implementations in accord with the Sure Step Methodology, 2B Solutions is still finding new ways to use the methodology to improve the way it manages the company’s business. 2B Solutions project managers regularly review detailed information to ensure projects are on schedule and within budgets, and frequently identify opportunities to boost efficiencies. “Sure Step gives us much better control in managing budgets and resources,” says Cross. “I know we will generate more substantial cost savings for customers and the company.”

                        A 2B Solutions manager team meets every week with a Microsoft partner advisor to discuss how the company uses the Sure Step Methodology and strategize the most promising ways for increasing the outcome. The best use of the methodology to anticipate and mitigate potential roadblocks and risks in implementation projects figures prominently in these conversations. Says Cross, “The Sure Step Methodology helps us minimize the potential risks in our projects, which in turn frees us up to pursue new business with renewed focus.”

                        IT teams are responsible for the computers, networks, and software applications that manage a company’s operations, track financial transactions, and enable people to communicate and collaborate throughout the company. Without a smooth flow of information through a company’s IT systems, operations would not be efficient or even possible in some cases. IT managers need to monitor the day-to-day health of complex systems while simultaneously tracking innovations in technology that might create competitive advantages.

                        Tim, an IT manager
                        As the IT manager, my job is to keep our company’s network and computers up and running and see to it that everyone has the information and tools they need to do their job. My goal is to select, deploy, and manage our company’s IT investments so they become strategic assets to help the company reach its business goals.

                        The obstacles I face include the fact that we have many departments using systems that aren’t connected, leading to data duplication and sometimes multiple versions of the “truth.” It’s not enough to keep machines and applications running; I have to make sure that critical information can move through these siloed systems and reach the right people at the right time.

                        Microsoft Dynamics ERP and CRM solutions make the job of connecting systems and exchanging information easier for IT professionals, and in many cases, it happens automatically. Microsoft Dynamics enables your end-users to access information by themselves, so IT professionals can concentrate on higher-value tasks.

                        Reduced costs. Microsoft Dynamics solutions are built on a standard Microsoft platform, which helps your company reduce costs. You may already use many of the supporting technologies, such as Windows Server, Microsoft SQL Server, or Windows SharePoint Services. If so, you won’t need special licensing or costly, time-consuming retraining to benefit from Microsoft Dynamics solutions.

                        Familiar user experience. Microsoft Dynamics solutions operate like other familiar Microsoft applications, such as Microsoft Office. The RoleTailored user interface provides access to the data and insights needed for individual roles or departments, making Microsoft Dynamics easier to learn and use and helping to reduce IT support requirements.

                        Responsive to change. With a flexible and standard architecture that takes advantage of Microsoft .NET components such as Windows Workflow Foundation, Microsoft Dynamics enables you to quickly and easily add features and update workflows to respond to changing business conditions. This helps ensure that your business software is adaptable to your changing business needs.

                        Simpler end-user reporting. Microsoft Dynamics helps make important business information more widely accessible in your organization, giving the right people access to the right information at the right time. By using Microsoft SharePoint Products and Technologies, you can provide straightforward access to information via a Web browser. And because Microsoft Dynamics is built to work with familiar Microsoft Office programs such as Outlook and Excel, your people can use familiar tools to perform additional analysis.

                        Flexible deployment. Microsoft Dynamics ERP and CRM solutions are available either on-premise or via a hosted model (partner-hosted or Microsoft-hosted in the case of Microsoft Dynamics CRM), providing you with flexible and cost-effective deployment options.
