Frequently Asked Questions

What Dynamics 365 consulting services does EPC Group provide?

EPC Group provides Dynamics 365 implementation, customization, integration, and support across Business Central, Sales, Customer Service, Marketing, Field Service, Finance, and Supply Chain Management. We specialize in enterprise deployments with compliance requirements.

How much does a Dynamics 365 implementation cost?

Dynamics 365 implementations typically range from $75K-$350K. A focused Business Central deployment costs $75K-$150K, a multi-module enterprise implementation costs $150K-$350K, and complex global rollouts may exceed $500K. Pricing depends on user count, customization, and integrations.

Can Dynamics 365 integrate with existing systems like SAP or Salesforce?

Yes. Dynamics 365 supports integration with SAP, Salesforce, Oracle, and virtually any system with APIs using Power Automate, Azure Logic Apps, and custom connectors. EPC Group builds robust integration architectures that maintain data consistency across platforms.

How long does a Dynamics 365 implementation take?

Timeline varies by scope: a single-module deployment (e.g., Sales or Customer Service) takes 8-16 weeks, a multi-module enterprise implementation takes 4-8 months, and a full ERP transformation with Business Central takes 6-12 months.

Microsoft Strategy: 2026 Considerations for Microsoft ERP Cloud

EPC Group 29-year Microsoft consulting heritage matters specifically because Microsoft platform decisions today are layered on top of 25 years of architectural choices: Active Directory schema decisions from 2005 affect Microsoft Entra ID Conditional Access policy design in 2026; SharePoint 2003 information architecture decisions affect Copilot grounding quality in 2026. The firms that can navigate that depth (fewer than a dozen Microsoft Solutions Partners in North America) have a structural advantage on enterprise Microsoft migrations.

Microsoft Solutions Partner status (six designations: Data & AI, Modern Work, Infrastructure, Security, Digital & App Innovation, Business Applications) replaced the legacy Microsoft Gold Partner program in 2022. EPC Group held Gold Partner status from 2003 to 2022 (the oldest continuous Gold Partner in North America) and currently holds all six Solutions Partner designations; a credentialing footprint shared by fewer than 50 firms globally and typically used by Microsoft field teams as a vetting gate for enterprise Customer 0 nominations and named-account engagements.

Decision factors EPC Group evaluates

  • Enterprise architecture roadmap
  • Cost optimization and licensing audit
  • Microsoft platform capability assessment
  • Vendor consolidation analysis
  • Compliance and governance posture review
