The Challenge

As a unique operation, Global Airways needs an ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) solution flexible and customisable enough to meet their growing needs. When it became clear that their previous ERP wasn’t cutting it, they went in search of alternatives.

The approach

A comprehensive ERP, Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central has the ability to seamlessly connect teams and operations, including sales, finance, and service teams, across the entire enterprise in real time. When combined with Braintree’s LightSpeed, implementation can go from weeks to days, saving up to 75% of the costs involved.

“As a rapidly growing group of companies, it was almost impossible to try and marry all the intricacies and complexities involved and get it to work within that system. Our chairman looked at Business Central and said, ‘Go make it happen.’”
