Overview:

Whether you are using Dynamics 365 Finance and Supply Chain Management, any of its older versions (e.g. Dynamics AX2012) or even any other ERP finance and supply chain system and considering a move to Dynamics, modern businesses are dynamic and evolving and the business processes often need to adapt to Political, Economic, Social and Technological factors as well as being ever increasingly responsive to dynamic and ever-growing customer demands of more for less. The demand is therefore ever present for business processes to evolve and transform. Some businesses can manage this well, others are too lean/don’t have the bandwidth to be able cope with the demand for continuous improvements.

Exacerbation happens through staff turnover and multi-skilled resource limitations coupled with current employment trends and economic trend factors where employees are no longer employed for ‘life’ in business but are much more mobile. Inevitably, software knowledge diminishes over time, creating a disparity between the required business capabilities and the understood and executable functionalities of its business systems software. We call this discrepancy the Business Enablement Gap, as it limits the ability of the business to dynamically evolve. The Mphasis Business Audit is a comprehensive review of selected business area(s), from a business perspective and whilst many customers use Dynamics 365 Finance and Supply Chain Management, the audit process itself is software agnostic. It seeks to reduce the BEG to align the businesses processes with software usage knowledge to fully leverage the business system capabilities and exploit those to the business’s advantage, thereby maintaining or creating competitive advantage.
