When we are talking about ERM implementation, typically the advise is to pick implementation consulting firm with local representation and proven track of successful practice over multiple years.  Additional advise would be good technical background, especially when we are talking about Microsoft platforms, where products are intended to be flexible and tunable: C#, Visual Studio.Net, XML Web Services, eCommerce development – these technologies are typically expected as in-house expertise for large or midsize company, however proprietary ERP tools, such as Microsoft Dexterity, Microsoft Dynamics eConnect, VBA programming for GP Modifier and Great Plains Integration Manager – these technologies should be considered to come with your Microsoft Dynamics partner.  Functional system knowledge is also the must, but typically this is an attribute of every consulting practice.  Let’s take a look at Microsoft Dynamics GP technical highlights:

• Current Version & Upgrades.  Currently we are talking about GP 9.0 (GP 10.0 is expected in April 2007).  Upgrade is straightforward for non-customized GP without so-called third party modules: Mekorma, Horizon, Intellisol, DynamicsZip, AssureBuy, Avalara, Alba Spectrum, etc.  Plus if you are on non-supported version, such as Great Plains 6.0, 7.0, 7.5 on Pervasive SQL 2000, or Ctree/Faircomm, or even Great Plains Accounting 9.2, 9.5 versions for DOS or Windows – you need migration to GP consulting help
• Customizations.  Typically historical Great Plains Dynamics/eEnterprise clients have GPS Dexterity customization.  These custom modules should be given into professional Dexterity developers hands for upgrade and technology feasibility analysis – probably portion of customization logic should be recommended to be migrated to SQL Server stored procedures, eConnect, XML Web Servies
• Reporting.  Historically you can have Crystal Reports, as well as Great Plains RepotWriter modified reports - Report Writer in GP Dexterity application, which allows you to modify existing reports (available in DYNAMICS.DIC dictionary) plus create new reports (typically for quick data export only).  Such reports as SOP Long Invoice Form are the most heavily modified and popular.
• Countryside ERP consulting.  This is typically local and regional consulting compromise.  You should probably expect some good level of small business ERP expertise: MYPB, PeachTree, Microsoft Small Business Accounting, however when you need such complex expertise as Microsoft Dynamics GP Manufacturing, Project Accounting, Dexterity, Service Management Suite – you should consider the alliance of local consultant support, supplemented with regional as-needed consulting help from consulting firm, located in Chicago, Indianapolis, Milwaukee, Springfield, Saint Luis, Vandalia, Peoria, Rockford.
