Description
The Marine Institute invites tenders for the provision, implementation, and ongoing support of a financial management solution licensed as Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central. This solution will replace the Institute’s current ERP system, Microsoft Dynamics NAV 2018, which is approaching end-of-life in January 2028. To ensure continuity of financial operations and organisational support services, the Marine Institute requires an implementation from Microsoft Dynamics NAV 2018 to Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central.
