Microsoft Dynamics AX for To-Order Industries
Sales, production, inventory, quality control, distribution and customer service capabilities must be integrated throughout the entire manufacturing life cycle in order for manufacturers to build and maintain a competitive advantage. While internal IT team works wonders with proprietary applications and network needs, they don’t have the same level of expertise with tying the entire company’s operations together with technology to put processes to work for the users and for the company.
When searching for a Microsoft Dynamics AX implementation partner, we found many who knew how AX applications work, but few who knew how to make it work for our business. Solution Partners was our choice and they have made an invaluable contribution in making our investment in a total Microsoft business solution a great success.Bryan Long, Project Manager, Haldex Brakes
