Case study · Recycling & industrial
A recycling business relaunching after the bankruptcy of a predecessor company rebuilt on a cloud-managed IT and ERP foundation instead of another server room.
The predecessor company ran a fully on-premises environment: aging servers, legacy applications and physical network gear maintained by four full-time IT staff. Infrastructure was not the cause of the bankruptcy, but the fixed overhead and the inability to adapt quickly removed financial flexibility exactly when the business needed it most.
Identity first
Every device checks in against Entra ID and conditional access before a workload opens. Compliant devices dock; unmanaged ones do not get in just because they are on the office wifi.
A single Business Central environment was configured with company dimensions so each operational site runs independently while processes stay standardized and reporting stays consolidated. Adding a location became a configuration exercise rather than a new implementation.
Modernization here was not a technical upgrade, it was a cost-structure decision. The customer is not named because they have not approved being referenced; the savings figure is theirs, from their own review of eliminated headcount and infrastructure spend.
Common questions
It depends on the architecture. When identity, endpoints, networking and ERP are all cloud-managed and monitored remotely, the day-to-day work no longer requires someone on site. Environments still holding legacy on-premises applications usually need a hybrid model instead.
No, but a clean slate is faster. With an existing environment we inventory dependencies first and migrate in waves, which takes longer but avoids breaking line-of-business applications.
