BD Living future proofing business with Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central
BD Living, a division of Barratt Developments has selected Microsoft Dynamics Business Central to transform its business operations and replace out-of-support and labour-intensive legacy systems.
Microsoft Dynamics Business Central was the natural choice, bringing systems back to a fully supported condition and opening many opportunities to streamline business operations. Alexandra Hawley, Business Lead at BD Living explains, “We’ll be able to be more efficient, taking advantage of new technologies and processes such as barcode scanning for our shop floor and warehouse as well as document recognition.”
Dynamics 365 technology and in particular Business Central, will provide an end-to-end ERP solution for BD Living from quotes through sales orders to deliver and invoicing. Materials handling and stock management will be transparent and efficient and it will significantly reduce manual intervention in business processes.
“Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central will allow us to use routing capabilities more effectively, directly to factory locations, machinery and pickers, and develop our hub in Durham to a new level.”

With Microsoft Power BI, reporting will be transformed, with real-time information available to all parts of the business, supporting faster financial reporting and better decision making as well as visibility of transactions and the flow of materials and products.
An existing trusted relationship with Xpedition made it the natural choice for an implementation partner and the relationship is developing well. Alexandra goes on to say, “Xpedition has integrity which allows open and honest conversations about capabilities and limitations, leading to clear expectations from both parties.”
Gareth Morrlle, Business Central Practice Director, Xpedition highlights, “We are really looking forward to supporting BD Living on this exciting transformational journey. With Business Central in place, BD Living will have a stable and secure end-to-end solution that can respond as the business develops and grows.”
