About the Company

Divider
Our client is a leading construction company in the Middle East known for large building and warehouse projects across Qatar, UAE, and Saudi Arabia.

The Challenges

Divider
The client was using CMiC, an ERP system for the construction industry, to manage project costs, procurement, and sales. As part of their cloud transition, they needed to upgrade from the outdated Dynamics NAV 2009 to Business Central, which offers advanced features and analytics. The migration involved moving 15 years of historical data and customizations from 27 live databases across three countries and 53 companies, making it a highly complex project. The challenge included migrating nearly 100 TB of data and creating a merged database, as Business Central required a single database for all regions.
