Organisations running Microsoft Dynamics 365 are under increasing pressure to maximise value, accelerate transformation, and evolve their digital capability, but choosing the right delivery model is often the biggest blocker. Should you implement and mature D365 through a Centre of Excellence (CoE) Managed Service, or is a Professional Services delivery model better suited to your goals?
This webinar brings clarity. Designed specifically for existing D365 customers and those evaluating their next step, this session breaks down each approach, who it’s for, and what outcomes you can realistically expect.

Why Attend?

• Gain clarity on the strategic role each operating model plays in shaping long‑term CRM success — from organisational control to delivery maturity and adaptability.
• Understand which internal conditions (team structure, digital ambition, governance appetite) influence whether a CoE or a Professional Services‑led model produces better outcomes.
• Learn how different delivery models can accelerate or hinder broader transformation programmes and impact cross‑departmental performance.
• Access structured evaluation tools to help you map your current state and choose a route that aligns with your future CRM vision.

What We’ll Cover

• How each model changes the day‑to‑day experience of running Dynamics 365 — from release cycles and ownership models to operational processes and support patterns.
• The practical pros and cons of each approach, including flexibility, internal uplift, dependency levels, and the reality of ongoing maintenance.
• Real examples of which types of organisations succeed with centralised ownership vs those who benefit from externally led delivery teams.
• A step‑by‑step view of the diagnostic tools ANS uses to help teams benchmark capability, evaluate risk, and determine the most sustainable D365 operating model.
