Subsidiary of a national telecommunications operator

Period
2008-08 — 2010-08
Role
Project Manager, Enterprise Architect, Solution Architect, Business Analyst, Microsoft Dynamics Administrator

Context

Leadership could not consistently see where money was spent or how budget-linked contracts were executed; documentation lagged real system behaviour and data meaning was unclear — opacity at the worst possible moment for a company under pre-sale time pressure.

Approach

Chose a unified operational backbone over minor fixes to legacy tools, consolidating retail/trade accounting, payroll, and budgeting into one reporting view — favouring auditability and predictability over customisation under the pre-sale window.

Outcome

Stood up Microsoft Dynamics AX as a single ERP consolidation layer across Subsidiary of a national telecommunications operator’s finance, trade, payroll, and budgeting streams, giving executives one decision-ready management-reporting view ahead of acquisition.

  • Single ERP consolidation layer across the accounting, payroll, and budgeting streams.
  • More accurate, timely operational and financial data for executive governance and decision-making.
  • Stronger controllability and reporting credibility, supporting company-value positioning ahead of acquisition.

Key result

Implemented Microsoft Dynamics AX as a consolidation layer for finance, trade, payroll, and budgeting, enabling transparent management reporting and stronger controllability ahead of acquisition.
