Olympic Steel | Manufacturing | 2188 | $2.2B | United States | Microsoft | Microsoft Dynamics 365 for Finance and Operations | ERP Financial | 2021 | In 2021, Olympic Steel implemented Microsoft Dynamics 365 for Finance and Operations to replace a 30-plus-year CDS application that had a shrinking pool of support consultants, creating a burning-platform need to retire the older system. The deployment established Microsoft Dynamics 365 for Finance and Operations as Olympic Steel's ERP Financial platform for the Flat Roll division and the Minneapolis branch, building on existing Dynamics usage in the Southeast Region and Chambersburg, Pennsylvania. The implementation concentrated on manufacturing and finance modules, with explicit configuration of costing functionality to deliver fully costed production jobs and inventory valuation. The project addressed mixed mode and complex manufacturing requirements by configuring multilevel bills of materials and routing support, while aligning financial ledgers and costing structures to provide unified visibility for decision makers. Boyer & Associates served as the system integrator and coordinated the deployment, aligning application configuration to Flat Roll production workflows and cutover sequencing to retire the CDS code base. The effort consolidated operational control onto Microsoft Dynamics 365 for Finance and Operations, integrating the Minneapolis site into the broader Dynamics portfolio already used at other plants, and centralized support under a more widely supported Microsoft product. Governance and operational changes focused on shifting maintenance to a supportable vendor ecosystem, formalizing cost and productivity reporting as governance metrics, and managing knowledge transfer risks caused by the retiring CDS support staff. Olympic Steel prioritized a sustainable support model and improved costing insight as primary outcomes driving the rollout of Microsoft Dynamics 365 for Finance and Operations. | |

Famous Dave's of America, Inc. | Leisure and Hospitality | 1500 | $200M | United States | Microsoft | Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central | ERP Financial | 2020 | In 2020 Famous Dave's of America, Inc. implemented Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central as an ERP Financial solution to consolidate inventory visibility and profitability analysis for its Famous Products business line. The company had been using QuickBooks and Excel spreadsheets to manage finance and distributed warehouse inventory prior to implementing Business Central, which had created month end closing and reporting bottlenecks. The implementation focused on General Ledger and Inventory functional modules within Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central, with Boyer & Associates delivering configuration, a small set of customizations, and assistance with reporting. The deployment deliberately avoided advanced manufacturing functionality because manufacturing is contract managed, while Business Central dimensions and built in analytics were paired with Jet Reports to enable deeper drill down into customer profitability and shipping cost analysis. Integrations and operational coverage included a parallel EDI transition from eBridge Connections to SPS Commerce coordinated alongside the ERP project, with EDI testing constituting a major portion of the project timeline. The rollout touched finance, operations, and sales teams and encompassed inventory across multiple warehouses and retail distribution channels, including international product shipments such as exports to South Korea. The program kicked off in November 2020 and went live on April 1, 2021. Project governance was driven by Boyer & Associates through weekly status meetings, deadline management, training sessions, and post go live support, with the implementation team adapting to turnover of three staff members during the program which required retraining. Outcomes explicitly reported include real time inventory snapshots, more granular customer profitability reporting, cloud based access that removed server dependency for weekend access, and continuity of order shipping during the cutover. The organization is planning follow on projects to extend Microsoft CRM capabilities and Power BI dashboards and continues to consult Boyer & Associates for optimization and best practices. | |

Spalon Montage | Professional Services | 300 | $51M | United States | Microsoft | Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central | ERP Financial | 2020 | In 2020, Spalon Montage implemented Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central as its core accounting platform, engaging Boyer & Associates to manage the project after running Microsoft Dynamics NAV 5.0 on Windows Server 2008. The upgrade was driven by imminent server failure risk and a preference to retain NAV functional familiarity while moving to a modern cloud ERP Financial solution. The deployment followed a two step architecture, first upgrading to the latest on premise version of the product and then migrating to the cloud Software as a Service edition of Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central. Spalon implemented a standard configuration focused on General Ledger capabilities rather than distribution or warehouse modules, and the team leveraged Business Central out of the box reporting, Power BI integration, and built in AI features to streamline financial reporting and data entry. Operational coverage centered on the business office and accounting workflows across Spalon Montage’s three locations in the Twin Cities, with the project kickoff in early May and a production go live on June 1. The technical migration path included an on premise to cloud transition, resulting in a cloud based accounting system provisioned under Microsoft’s SaaS model, and the vendor built in analytics and AI were retained as part of the cloud deployment. Project governance emphasized virtual collaboration, Boyer & Associates and Spalon teams met remotely via Microsoft Teams throughout the spring for design, testing, and training, and all training and cutover activities were executed remotely. The senior accountant maintained schedule control, the consultant responded to issues during the remote rollout, and the project met its intended go live without schedule slippage. Reported outcomes from the engagement include removal of imminent server crash risk, a more modern user interface, faster searches and data entry through AI enhancements, and improved real time reporting visibility using Power BI embedded in Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central. The implementation clarified financial workflows, centralized general ledger operations, and delivered a cloud based ERP Financial platform for ongoing accounting operations. | |
