Warehouse and Procurement Optimization with D365 SCM
A mid-sized distributor faced systemic delays and stock imbalances due to outdated warehouse tools and manual procurement. In four months, GC Consulting modernized their operations with Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management, achieving precise inventory control, predictive restocking, and cost savings in excess of $300K annually.

Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management
The Challenge
- Poor visibility across warehouse and procurement operations
- Stockouts and over-ordering due to static Excel-based planning
- ~$400K in write-offs from inventory mismanagement
Our Solution
We started by conducting detailed interviews with stakeholders in warehouse, procurement, and finance operations to understand bottlenecks and manual workflows. Our analysis showed that inventory updates were delayed by up to seven days, and procurement was driven by outdated Excel sheets.
We deployed Dynamics 365 SCM with IoT-enabled mobile scanners to digitize receiving, picking, and reconciliation processes. Forecasting models in Power BI incorporated seasonal demand patterns and promotion cycles.
Procurement thresholds were configured to automatically trigger reorders based on consumption trends and supplier lead times.
We introduced a vendor management dashboard with real-time SLA tracking and automated supplier scorecards. Integration with SAP via Boomi allowed seamless synchronization of procurement and fulfillment data.
Each component was introduced through a phased rollout that included dry runs, training workshops, and embedded change management practices to ensure adoption and stability.
