Who PDG Consultants Serve
- Smaller Dynamics GP partners, highly skilled but now facing obsolecence
- Invested twenty to thirty years in GP, but face skills being orphaned as Microsoft sunsets GP
- Lack resources or time to quickly master Dynamics 365 Business Central
- Need cost-effective solutions to retain valuable clients and protect revenue
Why You Need Us & What We Do
Privately-held, entrepreneurial businesses often face a critical gap: they need the deep customization and intuitive workflows of legacy systems like Microsoft Dynamics GP, but also want the scalability and modern capabilities of Business Central. Unfortunately:
- GP is mature and intuitive but lacks modern extensibility.
- Business Central is powerful but unintuitive out-of-the-box and requires extensive customization.
- Low-code tools fall short for businesses with unique, complex processes.
PDG Consultants bridge this gap by delivering:
- Solutions that go beyond low-code, offering the depth and flexibility your business truly needs.
- Deep AL code customizations that transform Business Central into a system as intuitive as GP.
- Tailored applications designed specifically for entrepreneurial, privately-held businesses.
- Bespoke extensions that replicate GP workflows and data structures within Business Central.
- Close collaboration with GP partners, ensuring continuity without bypassing existing relationships.
How PDG Consultants Deliver Value
We work only with partners, never directly with end clients. All pricing is fixed fee, no hourly rates, no surprises. Steve and Ranjith bring 55+ years of ERP experience and over 30,000 hours of hands-on ERP and database development.

- Partner defines the requirements โ or we help shape them
- We scope the solution to fit the cost budget
- If it fits: we build
