| Microsoft | Microsoft Dynamics AX | Microsoft Dynamics 365 for Finance and Operations | ERP Financial | ERP | n/a | 2021 | 2022 |
In 2021, UniGroup implemented Microsoft Dynamics 365 for Finance and Operations as its ERP Financial platform. The program executed a Microsoft-led AX to D365 upgrade assessment and implementation partner selection while migrating functional finance processes from Microsoft Dynamics AX into the new environment.
The deployment concentrated on core financial management capabilities including general ledger, accounts payable, accounts receivable and procurement, with configuration and automation aligned to support project accounting and fixed asset workflows common to transportation and contract billing. The Microsoft Dynamics 365 for Finance and Operations implementation was integrated into a broader back-office ecosystem that included Dayforce HRIS, Icertis Contract Management, Scan and Fax services, and custom ETL links to legacy mainframe applications supporting a multi-year government contract.
Operational governance for the ERP Financial rollout was centralized under a third-party application team led by a director responsible for roadmap, upgrades, code promotions, vendor management and ServiceNow incident and demand management. A cross-functional team of eight, composed of product owners, project managers, business analysts and software engineers, managed Tier 1 to 3 support, change control, and staged cutover activities while facilitating the partner selection and cutover sequencing.
UniGroup directed discrete sourcing actions during the program, transitioning ERP Tier 3 support and development to a new vendor which the organization reported saved 40 percent annually while improving collaboration and application stability. The initiative also included transitioning a $30 million business unit into Microsoft Dynamics, which the company documented as reducing software maintenance costs by $100,000 per year and eliminating over $100,000 in non-value added activities through process redesign.

In 2020, UniGroup implemented Clearstar ESR Check to centralize background screening workflows, deploying Clearstar ESR Check as its BackGround Screening application. The deployment focused on hiring and agency resourcing processes within UniGroup, aligning the new screening service with HR and Agency Resources & Solutions functions for a transportation firm with about 1000 employees.
Clearstar ESR Check was used to provide screening orchestration and automated verification pipelines consistent with BackGround Screening functionality, including identity verification, criminal and employment checks, adjudication workflows, and candidate status communications. The implementation emphasized workflow automation and reduced manual touch points in candidate screening, and Clearstar provided US based customer service to support operational use.
The implementation included a process analysis to identify and eliminate bottlenecks in UniGroup s screening process, a reduction of touch points to streamline candidate workflows, and a targeted improvement of the candidate experience, outcomes explicitly highlighted in UniGroup s testimonial. UniGroup reported that Clearstar exceeded expectations, reflecting operational and governance changes around screening workflows and vendor-supported service processes.
