Advantage Smollan | Professional Services | 4859 | $243M | United Kingdom | Microsoft | Microsoft Dynamics 365 for Finance and Operations | ERP Financial | 2019 | In 2019, Advantage Smollan implemented Microsoft Dynamics 365 for Finance and Operations as its group ERP Financial platform, executing a program delivered with Columbus to centralize subsidiary finance processes and harmonize reporting across European markets. The program targeted consolidation of financial controls and standardization of reporting terminology to provide consistent data for internal customers and finance teams across the group. Microsoft Dynamics 365 for Finance and Operations was configured to support core financial management capabilities, centralized general ledger processes, and group reporting workflows, while leveraging D365 localization to meet complex local market requirements. The implementation introduced role based access controls, standardized data models and automated data upload routines that reduced manual preparation time for group reporting, producing a significant reduction in cycle time for feeding the group reporting solution. The deployment integrated the Dynamics 365 for Finance and Operations instance with the existing group reporting solution to streamline the end to end flow from subsidiary ledgers to consolidated reporting, while accommodating third party agency platforms in markets where those remained in use. Operational coverage focused on finance and management reporting across the company’s European subsidiaries, improving visibility into departmental costs and enabling consistent reporting across jurisdictions. Governance and delivery followed an agile approach led by Columbus, emphasizing continuity of consultant resources, a balance between configuration and knowledge transfer, and tight timescales and budget control. Reported outcomes from the program include standardized and in some cases automated manual tasks, reduced data upload time by up to 90 percent, materially improved data quality described by the customer as tenfold, improved security through access controls, and a scalable ERP Financial platform that can be extended as business requirements evolve. | |
