Tech Talks: Managed service provider simplifies stressful ERP migrations

Picture of a person working on a laptop with square icons floating above the keyboard. One of the squares reads "ERP" for enterprise resource planning software.To serve as technology consultants to our clients, we need to stay up to speed with the latest IT trends and solutions. To achieve that, our team of IT experts attends weekly training sessions conducted by various IT solution providers. Based on our extensive experience and sales volume with the suppliers, we receive exclusive, direct and usually in-person training from these suppliers. Our Tech Talks blog series offers a snapshot of these educational sessions.

A global organization in the life safety manufacturing space had carried out multiple acquisitions within a short period and needed to aggregate all of the enterprise resource planning (ERP) data from the newly integrated companies’ various platforms into a single data lake. One of our partners, a leading managed service provider (MSP) and technology services company, stepped in to help.

The MSP deployed numerous solutions and services, including a data lake on AWS, dashboards for reporting, new infrastructure discovery, managed services for infrastructure, Sage to Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central migration, and staff augmentation (Business Central admin and IT project management). Ultimately, with our partner’s guidance and services, the client received the data lake they needed along with a secure AWS cloud landing zone and strategic resource placement, in addition to the migration of multiple workloads to AWS.

That’s one example of the advantages of working with an MSP to lighten the internal IT workload. During a recent meeting with our technology consultants, we discussed our partner’s portfolio of managed services and how they lighten the burden of maintaining IT infrastructure for clients of all sizes, from small businesses to Fortune 500 companies. If you’re in the market for managed services, here’s some essential information to consider about this provider.
