Dynamics 365 Finance and Operations Consulting Services
Most Dynamics 365 F&O partners hand you the keys at go-live and move on to the next client. We implement Finance and Operations from the ground up, then build the Power BI, Power Automate, and Power Apps layer that makes it worth using every day after. One partner, no handoff gap.
What Is Dynamics 365 Finance and Operations Consulting?
Dynamics 365 Finance and Operations (D365 F&O) consulting covers implementing, configuring, and extending Microsoft's enterprise resource planning platform for large, multi-entity organizations. It includes the core rollout across finance, supply chain, and project modules, migration from legacy systems including Dynamics AX, and the reporting and automation layer that determines whether the platform gets used after go-live. Sunflower Lab handles the full lifecycle, implementation through the Power Platform layer most F&O partners leave undone.
Why Most Dynamics 365 F&O Rollouts Underperform
Finance and Operations is built to run multi-entity, multi-currency operations at real scale. But a successful configuration and a platform that actually pays off leadership every week are two different things. We see the same three gaps over and over:
Scope ends at go-live
Configuration gets delivered, the contract closes, and your team is left to figure out reporting and automation on its own.
Data stays siloed across entities
Multi-entity, multi-currency operations generate more data than any standard F&O dashboard surfaces, so leadership ends up back in Excel.
Nobody builds the AI layer
Copilot sits unused because configuring it takes Power Platform expertise most F&O implementers don't carry in-house.
Full Lifecycle, One Partner
From assessment through go-live, then the reporting and automation layer that determines whether the investment pays off.
Assessment & Implementation Planning
We audit your current systems, whether that's legacy AX, another ERP, or spreadsheets, and scope a fixed-price implementation roadmap before any build starts.
Configuration & Go-Live
Full configuration across Finance, Supply Chain Management, Project Operations, Human Resources, and Commerce modules, tailored to your entities and industry.

Migration from Dynamics AX or another legacy ERP, plus integration with the line-of-business systems F&O needs to talk to.
Power Platform Extension Layer
Power BI dashboards, Power Automate workflows, and Power Apps built directly on your F&O data, plus a configured Copilot layer, so the platform earns its budget past go-live.

Ongoing tuning, new automations, and Copilot expansion as your F&O usage grows, under the same risk-sharing partnership model across every engagement.

What This Looks Like in Practice
Cold Storage & Logistics: From Weekly Excel Exports to Real-Time KPIs
Core X Partners runs cold storage and logistics across multiple warehouses. Dynamics 365 was already their system of record for ERP data, but the team was still updating operational metrics in Excel every week. We built the integration layer connecting Dynamics 365, their warehouse management system, and their CRM directly into Power BI. Result: 16 warehouses reporting in real time, 3 systems unified into one dashboard, zero manual weekly Excel exports left.

Inspections From 15 Minutes to Seconds
Dominion Engineering's product inspections took 15 minutes each, with data scattered across disconnected systems. We connected SharePoint and Dynamics 365 through Power Automate, auto-generating inspection tickets and Teams alerts on every receipt trigger. Result: inspection time cut to seconds, 10-15 hours saved weekly, and 60 hours saved monthly in receivables.
