Unify your global business with a powerful ERP platform
We deliver ERP transformation for multinationals using Microsoft Dynamics 365.
Are multiple, fragmented ERPs holding your multinational business back?
Most multinationals today are using dozens of ERP systems across national and regional teams. This introduces major challenges around cost, complexity, compliance and visibility.
The solution? A unified, cloud-based ERP solution that’s standardized and consistent, but still able to meet local requirements.
ERP challenges for multinational businesses
Multinational businesses should aim to operate seamlessly across borders with standardized data, processes and reporting in all geographies. But this is very challenging if your teams are using different ERP platforms and following different internal processes.
Key challenges that multinationals face when they’re looking to unify their ERP platform include:
Whether your business has grown through M&A or by opening offices in new countries, ERP fragmentation creates real operational challenges. Inconsistencies in data structures and workflows cause confusion, duplication and disrupted workflows. That makes integrating financial and supply chain data and workflows extremely challenging.
Reliance on multiple, fragmented ERPs means your organization cannot capitalize on emerging technology such as AI and new business applications. This means you risk falling behind and miss out on productivity-boosting technology.
If your business is using dozens of ERPs across geographies, you will need to pay for more licenses and use multiple contractors and employees to manage each system. Your company will experience data inconsistencies and higher operational costs. What is more, it becomes difficult to scale efficiently or maximize the ROI of new mergers, acquisitions or organic growth.

HSO International’s unique approach
One Team, One Contract approach to ERP unification
Every digital transformation project is unique and complex. HSO International has developed highly effective, repeatable methods that help customers achieve the full potential of their ERP.
Our unique One Team, One Contract approach, ensures centralized ownership and program management to keep things aligned from start to finish.
HSO International works closely with your business to understand your current ERP usage, requirements and plans. We meet you wherever you are on your ERP journey – whether you have already started with Dynamics 365 or are still entirely reliant on multiple on-prem ERPs.
A global operating corporation is not one company; it consists of multiple entities who have unique processes, definitions, metrics and applications as well as language considerations.
HSO International’s One Team, One Contract methodology is attuned to this understanding and standardizes digital transformation project management with a single global team and a single contract for all subsidiaries within a multinational organization.
By centralizing program, template and change management, rollouts stay aligned with global objectives, whilst importantly addressing regional requirements and specifications.
HSO International operates with a global templated approach that ensures every ERP modernization project is as smooth and efficient as possible. We will advise on which template best suits your current business structure and the goals of your ERP modernization.
Few Microsoft Partners have comparable experience at the global level.
ERP modernization requires long-term commitment and support beyond initial implementation. HSO International’s consultants work with you for the long term to find further opportunities to boost ROI, user adoption, or to deploy new technology after go-live (such as agentic AI).
HSO International understands that organizational change needs to be driven through every level of the business, cascaded down through and across managerial levels to employees. Through early-stage change management assessments, dedicated advisory and coaching support and our tried and tested approach, ROI is maximized and long-term impact is sustained.
