The Project Timeline with Microsoft Dynamics 365
The Project Timeline is structured in weeks. Key highlights include:
- Discover Phase (2 weeks) – The initial phase focuses on requirements gathering and project scoping.
- Design Phase (5 weeks) – Covering solution design, process mapping, and stakeholder collaboration.
- Build Phase (6 weeks) – Initiates after the Design phase focusing on system configuration and development.
- Adopt Phase (4 weeks) – Emphasizing user training, change management, and UAT.
- Operate Phase (Ongoing Support) – Covering Mock Go-Live, Go-Live execution, and post-deployment support.
This timeline ensures a structured and phased approach, minimizing risks while optimizing deployment efficiency. Let me know if you need a visual representation of the timeline.

Discover
Gathering insights from role-based surveys completed by Subject Matter Experts (SMEs) and initial onboarding sessions. Discover defines business requirements and system expectations to determine which Dynamics solution is better suited for your company.
Design
Specialists review the survey results, conduct workshops, and refine solutions to create a detailed ERP design roadmap. This phase emphasizes collaboration and iterative feedback. The workshops are undertaken with the company’s subject matter experts (SME’s) as needed.
Build
This phase focuses on implementing the design of Microsoft Dynamics 365 solution from the previous phase, ensuring alignment with business needs, and quickly deploying the solution using auto-configuration tools.
Adopt
The Adopt phase sets up the company for operational success. User training and change management exercises are performed to drive user acceptance of the solution.
Operate
On-going support program provides assistance at the functional and technical levels for the Dynamics 365 solution to ensure success.
