ERP & Business Central

Built by developerswho speak NAV.

A Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central practice founded on something most ERP shops have stopped investing in: hands-on, line-by-line fluency in both classic C/AL and modern AL. If your NAV system has a quirky customisation nobody else wants to touch, that's exactly where we start.

The Problem

Your NAV system isn't broken.The support market around it is.

NAV 2016 — No support since April 2026NAV 2018 — Extended updates end January 2028

Dynamics NAV 2016 lost all Microsoft support in April 2026. Every earlier version went dark years before that. Even NAV 2018 — the last release — runs out of extended security updates in January 2028, with no further extensions coming.

The hard part isn't the end-of-support date. It's this: Microsoft has stopped training new partners on C/AL. The developers who can actually open a decade-old NAV customisation, understand why it was written that way, and either fix it or rebuild it correctly in AL — that pool is shrinking every year your system stays on-premises. We didn't start as a BC-only shop and pick up NAV as an afterthought. We started in C/AL and grew into AL. We read both like native languages.

What we do

What we actually do

NAV to Business Central Migration
01 / 05NAV TO BC MIGRATION

NAV to Business Central Migration

We don't do lift and shift. Every custom field, every modified posting routine, every workflow tweak has to be understood — then rebuilt as a clean AL extension. We map your customisation footprint first, tell you honestly what's worth rebuilding versus retiring, then migrate without breaking the processes your business runs on.

Business Central Implementation
02 / 05BC IMPLEMENTATION

Business Central Implementation

For companies starting fresh on BC — configuration, approval workflows, role-based setup, data migration, and integration with your existing Microsoft 365 environment. We build using event-subscriber and extension patterns, not base-object modification, so your system stays upgrade-safe through every Microsoft release.

Ongoing AL & C/AL Development
03 / 05AL & C/AL DEVELOPMENT

Ongoing AL & C/AL Development

Custom reports, approval workflow logic, credit limit and DOA controls, document number management, posting fixes, integration codeunits — built as targeted, minimal extensions rather than sprawling custom modules. If you've been told a six-line fix needs a six-week project, talk to us first.

NAV Legacy Support
04 / 05NAV LEGACY SUPPORT

NAV Legacy Support

Still running NAV and not ready to migrate yet? We provide direct support for customisations already in production — debugging, stale-record and locking issues, approval workflow troubleshooting, and report fixes — without forcing a migration conversation you're not ready to have.

Data & Report Fixes
05 / 05DATA & REPORT FIXES

Data & Report Fixes

Ageing reports, ledger reconciliation mismatches, backdated data corrections, and one-time data-fix codeunits for issues that built up over years of system use. We treat these as standalone engagements — no retainer required.

DIFF

What stays consistent

What's actually different here

Five things that stay true whether we're fixing a six-year-old approval workflow or rebuilding your entire NAV footprint in AL.

01

In your codebase, not around it

We can read NAV's original C/AL object structure directly — including digging into FOB files when documentation has gone missing — rather than treating your customisations as a black box to be replaced wholesale.

02

Founder-led delivery

When you talk to us, you're talking to the person who will actually write the code. Not an account manager relaying your request to an offshore queue.

03

We tell you what NOT to migrate

Not every NAV customisation deserves to survive into BC. Part of our job is identifying which ones were workarounds for problems BC already solves natively — so you don't pay to rebuild something you don't need anymore.

04

Extension-first philosophy

Every customisation we write is built as an event-subscriber or extension, never a modification to Microsoft's base objects — which means your system stays cleanly upgradeable, release after release.

05

Built for SMB budgets

Enterprise-grade NAV and BC expertise without enterprise-consultancy overhead. We're based in Tamil Nadu, India — and we price accordingly without cutting corners on quality.

The Process

A NAV migration that respects
what you've already built

Most migration guides talk about “minimal disruption” without explaining what actually disrupts a business. Here's our honest version.

01
01
Strategy

Customisation Audit

We go through your NAV system's actual modified objects — not just a feature checklist — and classify each one: rebuild as-is, rebuild differently using BC's native capability, or retire.

02
02
Planning

Migration Roadmap

A realistic plan based on your specific customisation depth, not a generic 8-week template that assumes you have none.

03
03
Execution

Data Migration & Validation

Master data, transactional history, and financial balances migrated with reconciliation checks before go-live — not after.

04
04
Development

Extension Development

Every surviving customisation rebuilt as a proper AL extension. Clean, upgrade-safe, and documented.

05
05
Quality

Parallel Testing

Run alongside your live NAV system before cutover, so go-live isn't a leap of faith.

Delivery

Go-Live & Post-Migration Support

We stay on after go-live. Migration problems that show up in week three are still our problem, not a ticket you file with someone new.
