References that show what Business Central can do.

We specialise in construction, above all in the ancillary trades. We still know many other industries well: trade, logistics, manufacturing and other mid-sized companies.

Every company works differently. A good ERP project therefore starts with the real work, not with a module list.

At pB Consult we connect Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central with industry processes, EDI and individual extensions, wherever the Business Central standard on its own is not enough.

The references show how these solutions are used, from steel trade through manufacturing and wholesale to international service companies.

Some projects are shown without a company name, for reasons of confidentiality.
