14 municipalities on one platform with local autonomy

The challenge

A 14-municipality cooperative pooled some back-office services (HR, finance, procurement). Each municipality had different ERP systems; sharing services meant reconciling data manually.

What we built

Dynamics 365 ERP unified across the 14 municipalities with municipality-specific configurations. Shared services run on top with consistent processes. Data lineage clear at municipality level.
