What changed

  • Thirty developers moved to Git. The whole team’s work went under proper source control.
  • Solution import time cut from two hours to 40 minutes.

Why it matters

Thirty people changing a Dynamics system need to know who changed what, to work in parallel without overwriting each other, and to be able to go back. Source control gives them that.

Import time matters more than it sounds. When an import takes two hours, a team can try a change a handful of times a day. Cut it to 40 minutes and every developer gets feedback three times as often.

The kind of work this is

This is what we mean by delivery put right: the environments, pipelines, branching, testing and release process that a Dynamics 365 or Power Platform team works within.

The first step

Start with a delivery health check.

One to two weeks on your Dynamics 365 or Power Platform estate, ending in a written report and a costed plan.
