Where finance operations stall
Most finance teams run on spreadsheets stitched together with email
"Month-end close used to take fourteen days. We had four people pulling data out of separate systems, reconciling in Excel, and emailing approvals back and forth. Finance could not close until every business unit confirmed their numbers. There was no single version of the truth, ever."

From 47 completed Dynamics 365 Finance engagements
Renewable energy industry · Global operations · Dynamics 365 Finance and Operations plus Field Service and Power BI
A New York-based renewable energy provider required a centralized enterprise resource planning solution to unify 19 global legal entities and address challenges with decentralized architecture, limited reporting, and project-driven budget control. The company managed power plants, assets, work orders, and field operations across multiple countries with no single source of financial truth.
The problem
Decentralized architecture made comprehensive financial analysis impossible. Existing reports lacked alignment with long-term business strategy. Reporting tools on varied platforms offered no customization or mobile support. Integrating all global branches for consolidated financial statements was a manual, error-prone process. As a project-driven organization, effective budget control at the project level was critical and entirely absent.
The result
0
All 19 global legal entities were successfully unified on a single Dynamics 365 Finance and Operations platform, eliminating decentralized data silos. Multi-level workflow automation improved document approval efficiency. Project-wise budget control met requirements for high performance and low manual intervention. Field Service centralized power plant and asset management operations. Power BI dashboards provided comprehensive business intelligence across all data sources, enabling strategic decision-making for the first time. The implementation established a scalable, integrated enterprise resource planning foundation for the organization's continued global expansion.
Why Redefine for Dynamics 365 Finance
What makes a Dynamics 365 Finance implementation actually work at go-live
Most implementations fail not at configuration, but at data migration quality, user acceptance testing depth, and post-go-live ownership. Redefine resolves all three before any configuration begins.
Configuration workbook signed before build
Chart of accounts, financial dimension structure, intercompany elimination rules, and close calendar are documented and approved before a single module is configured. No surprises discovered in user acceptance testing.
One named consultant from day one through go-live
The same consultant who scopes your chart of accounts is on-site for first period close. No handoffs to junior resources after the sale. No re-explaining your business to a new team member mid-project.
Fixed-price statement of work
Every engagement runs on a fixed price with named deliverables and written acceptance criteria. The price does not change after Phase 1 sign-off. Any scope addition requires a written change order before work begins.
Parallel close user acceptance testing with real period data
User acceptance testing runs a parallel financial close using your actual transaction data before go-live is authorized. Your team signs off on a real close result, not a demo environment with placeholder numbers.
Finance and accounting specialists, not generalist enterprise resource planning consultants
Redefine consultants understand chart of accounts design, consolidation theory, and period-close mechanics. You will not spend hours explaining double-entry to someone who has never closed a period.
30-day hypercare plus managed services option
Thirty days of service-level-agreement-backed support after go-live with same-day response. Monthly managed services available for wave release updates, environment management, and enhancement requests.
