I met Matthew Kiernan, Business Applications Director at Bam Boom Cloud in the UK. The conversation turned into the next episode of the Business Central Manufacturing Show.
When we met before the show, Matt said: "The manufacturing end of Business Central, although can be complicated, doesn’t need to be super scary." I picked up that statement and opened the conversation with the WHY question.
Well, the remaining 30+ minutes just flew by and Matt managed to demystify Dynamics 365 Business Central. This went as far as transferring the concept of an MVP (minimal viable product) from software product development to ERP implementation.
Matt started the demystification of Dynamics 365 Business Central by nailing a benefit that each customer gets from just get going with the standard version. This is the ability to gather information and learn from it. This ability translates into making data-driven decisions.
Matt pledges for an MVP (minimum viable product) approach to the ERP implementation. From his experience, this approach is the best to deal with changing requirements: Avoid serving all initial requirements from the beginning. Instead, start with the standard Business Central system, use it and gain experience. Based on these experiences, refine the requirements and implement apps (or do customizations) to close "experience-based gaps".
