Quant transforms silos into synergy with Microsoft Dynamics 365

Overview

Quant, a leading partner for outsourced industrial maintenance services, supports 400+ facilities worldwide with 2,700 employees across 12 countries. To address and replace an aging Microsoft Dynamics AX environment impacted by country-specific customizations, Quant worked with sa.global. They were supported with an implementation of Microsoft Dynamics 365 Finance, Project Operations, and Supply Chain Management as part of the goal to standardize processes globally.

Challenge

Quant’s Dynamics AX system was reaching end-of-life and had become difficult to maintain due to country-by-country customizations and technical complexity. The business needed a unified, scalable platform to support global operations with consistent processes and governance.

Solution

With sa.global, Quant implemented Dynamics 365 Finance, Project Operations, and Supply Chain Management to establish a standardized global process model. The approach emphasized using out-of-the-box capability to reduce dependency on third-party tools and long-term IT overhead.

Outcomes

  • Eliminated three third-party solutions using out-of-box functionality.
  • Reduced manual payment processing time by about three hours per week via automated settlements.
  • Streamlined global operations with a unified chart of accounts.
  • Simplified project costing to improve profitability analysis.
  • Standardized purchasing processes by integrating supply chain management.
