In 2017, Downer Group implemented Microsoft Dynamics GP as its ERP Financial application to support core finance operations across its Australia-based finance organization. The deployment focused on a centrally managed finance instance used by a small Accounts Officers team, with continuous development of the Microsoft Great Plains accounting configuration and ongoing technological system improvements to align with corporate accounting policies.
The implementation covered accounts payable, accounts receivable, treasury controls for banking accounts and controlled release of payments through the banking platform, payroll support knowledge transfer, insurance administration including workers compensation, and financial reporting. Microsoft Dynamics GP was configured to support these functional modules alongside reporting tools, with Business Object Finance cited as the primary reporting capability and Office 365 used for productivity and document workflows.
Integrations included structured reporting integration with Business Object Finance and connectivity to the corporate banking platform to manage payment release and treasury workflows. The architecture emphasized integration between Microsoft Dynamics GP and existing reporting and productivity stacks, enabling transaction capture, reconciliations, and reporting to be orchestrated from the ERP core.
Governance and process responsibilities were formalized around maintaining accounting and financial policies, enforcing internal financial controls to mitigate fraud risk, and providing management support on payroll and contractual reporting issues for Public Transport Authorities. Operational ownership remained within the finance function, with an emphasis on process controls, policy maintenance, and cross-functional collaboration to drive consistent financial operations.
