About DIY-ERP
World-class Business Central implementation at a fixed price in under 20 weeks.
What Is DIY-ERP?
The full Business Central, implemented and owned by your own team.
DIY-ERP is an opportunity to realise the full capability of Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central at a fixed price in under 20 weeks through a guided delivery that’s been built on over 25 years of implementation experience.
Not a lightweight express version, nor a standalone third-party add-on, DIY-ERP delivers everything from Finance to Sales, Procurement, Inventory, Warehousing, Manufacturing, Job Costing, HR, and Copilot AI while eliminating consultant lock-in and transferring full operational capability directly to your internal teams.
Why DIY-ERP?
400 implementations behind you from day one.
We've delivered Business Central more than 400 times, and that experience is already configured into your environment. You begin with an enterprise-grade setup that has been structured, tested and aligned to global best practice.

Fixed price and scope eliminate budget blowouts, scope creep, and open-ended time-and-materials billing.
You own your system configuration and don’t require ongoing consulting support to handle routine operational changes.
Native First, Add-ons Last philosophy maximises Business Central features and Microsoft capabilities before considering custom development, significantly reducing technical debt and upgrade friction.
Grounded in a repeatable framework refined over 300+ projects and 50+ implementation recoveries, to give you predictable outcomes.
