You Know Business Central.There Is Now a Better Way to Deliver It.
A structured methodology built from 25 years and 400+ implementations. Fixed price. Guaranteed delivery. One consultant where it used to take a team.
You have been doing this long enough to know what is broken.
The discovery workshop that turns into a scoping war. The implementation that stretches four months past the agreed date. The go-live where the client calls you three times a week because they never really owned the system. You know how this ends. So do we.
What Traditional Delivery Actually Costs
These numbers come from 400+ Business Central projects, including more than 70 recovery projects — not theory. The traditional delivery model was designed for tier-one enterprise deals in the 1980s. It has been applied to SMB ever since. The results are predictable.

The DIY-ERP Difference?
Step 1
Qualify Fast — 30 Minutes
A structured ICP checklist surfaces no-fits before any significant time is invested. If they don't score 7/10, you don't proceed.
Step 2
One Discovery Call — 1–2 Hours
A single diagnostic call framed as a requirements session, not a series of workshops. This uncovers everything needed to scope, price, and commit. The decision-maker must be in the room.
Step 3
Agreement Within 24 Hours
Not a proposal — an agreement. Fixed price, full scope, project timeline, and implementation guarantee. Sent the day after the discovery call with speed signalling confidence.
Step 4
Curated Resources — No Demos
Send targeted resources that address the prospect's specific use case and questions. This replaces demos. In 60+ DIY-ERP implementations, not one demo was run.
Step 5
Close on Terms
Use presumptive, forward-moving language: There is nothing stopping you from moving ahead. When shall we start? Confirm the start date, not interest.
The way Business Central was always meant to be.
After the methodology, here is the product that makes the guarantee possible. This audience understands BC — here is how the engine works.
Traditional BC Delivery
The model you already know — and the limitations that come with it.
- Methodology in consultants' heads and SharePoint
- Training as a separate engagement at end of project
- Scope defined through weeks of workshops
- Client dependent on consultant post go-live
- Fixed price only possible with optimistic estimates
- One consultant per engagement (resource risk)
- Data migration as a final-stage event
- 18+ months to configure from scratch (senior consultant)
DIY-ERP Methodology
A structured, repeatable engine built inside Business Central.
- Methodology embedded inside Business Central
- Line-by-line guided learning built into the workflow
- Best-practice scope pre-configured from day one
- Client trained as junior consultant in their own system
- Fixed price backed by a contractual delivery guarantee
- One accredited Implementation Coach per delivery
- Config, training, and data migration in parallel, every week
- 8–20 weeks depending on business type, guaranteed
In full. On budget. Under 20 weeks.
Every ERP vendor claims their implementation runs smoothly. But you've been on the inside of enough of them to know what actually happens. Our guarantee is possible because the process is structured enough that the only delays are client-caused, and those are managed contractually. This is a simple but powerful consequence of the methodology.

Implementation
Internal Super User
CIO
Your engagement grows because they succeed, not because they struggle.
Traditional delivery models often create a permanent dependency loop that leaves clients frustrated and your consultants trapped in low-margin support. DIY-ERP replaces this friction with the Internal Super User (ISU) model, where a nominated person within the client business is trained as a junior consultant in their own environment. After go-live, the ISU evolves into a Continuous Improvement Officer (CIO), leading the expansion of the platform into Power BI, Power Automate, and integrated modules like Shopify. This shift allows your practice to move away from reactive break-fix tasks and focus on high-value business development (including growing their Microsoft stack) that drives genuine client success.
The partner journey to independent delivery.
From your first shared implementation to fully independent delivery, there is a clear path.
Implementation 0 — De-risk your first deal
Every partner starts somewhere. Our affiliate programme lets you white-label your first DIY-ERP projects — we deliver, you take the credit and the affiliate margin. There's no upfront investment, no delivery risk, and no gap in your client relationship. When you're ready to take the wheel, the transition is seamless.
Implementation 1 — Learn Alongside
DIY-ERP delivers the implementation. You observe, participate, and learn the methodology in a live context. You receive a share of the labour component while you learn. Zero delivery risk.
Implementation 2 — Shared Delivery
You take the lead delivery role. DIY-ERP supports, coaches, and is available at every stage. Mentor-on-demand throughout.
Implementation 3 — You Lead, DIY-ERP Supports
You deliver independently. Your sessions are reviewed against facilitation guides using Copilot transcripts to identify any gaps. DIY-ERP is available for complex or unfamiliar scenarios.
Implementation 4+ — Accredited and Independent
You run implementations independently. DIY-ERP is available for edge cases. You are a certified DIY-ERP Implementation Practitioner.
The accredited DIY-ERP Implementation Practitioner is a designation your clients can trust.

This foundational accreditation is achieved during our intensive training week to become implementation ready and equipped with a methodology that provides a world class best practice shield for your first project.

Success stories.
"I once did a 40-minute call and it fully closed the deal. Afterwards, they said: I have sat through 4 demos in the last six months and your discovery call actually showed me my business."
"Having administered Business Central (Navision) for years for a $B manufacturer, with many complex integration requirements and a list of support partners, it was immediately obvious that the DIY-ERP Implementation Toolkit and Methodology was the best path forward for an ageing industry that will struggle with Change Management and user adoption."
"The difference between the outcomes we achieved with DIY-ERP BC implementation compared to a traditional ERP implementation was day and night."
