Non Profit | 244 | $72M | United Kingdom | Microsoft | Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central | ERP Financial | 2019 | In 2019 Alzheimer's Research UK implemented Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central as an ERP Financial application to address mobility limits, manual reconciliation, and constrained reporting in their existing finance software. Columbus partnered closely with the charity's finance team and the Head of Finance to define implementation goals, set the scope of integrations, and ensure delivery to the agreed timescales. The implementation combined Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central with Jet Reports and Power BI to provide enhanced reporting and real-time data access. Configuration work included support for partial VAT exemption handling, tailored report development, and automation of purchase order approvals using the Microsoft Power Platform, converting previously manual approval workflows into system-driven processes. Integrations implemented or scoped during the project include a seamless linkage between Business Central and the charity's Grant Tracking software, and planned integration work with the fundraising system Raisers Edge, with income postings currently processed manually. The deployment followed a cloud-first model, providing remote and mobile access to staff, enhanced data security, and business continuity through regular Microsoft updates and reduced internal infrastructure demands. Governance and rollout emphasized close collaboration between Columbus and Alzheimer’s Research UK finance leadership, with joint decisions on integration boundaries and phased delivery aligned to internal change capacity. Operational coverage focused on the finance function, including grant reconciliation, reporting, VAT processing, and procurement approvals, with ongoing work to refine integrations and reporting outputs. Explicit outcomes reported by the charity include a threefold speed improvement in the grant reconciliation task, reducing the bimonthly activity to 20 minutes from approximately one hour, and time savings of up to two thirds on processes affected by partial VAT exemption handling. Reporting accessibility and detail were substantially improved, and the cloud deployment enabled continuous remote access, predictable operational costs, and reduced IT management overhead. | |
