In today’s rapidly changing business environment, staying ahead of the competition requires more than just traditional strategies. Small and Medium-sized Businesses across the UK are increasingly turning to Artificial Intelligence and automation to transform their operations.
Microsoft Dynamics 365, Copilot, and Power Platform is at the forefront of this transformation.
This weeks newsletter explores the latest AI and automation features within D365, showcasing how these innovations can streamline your operations and drive efficiency, ensuring your business thrives in the modern day, digital, competitive market.
Copilot Insights
Imagine having the capability to predict market trends, customer behaviour, and
operational challenges before they arise. D365 utilises advanced AI to analyse your business data, providing predictive insights that empower you to make smarter, faster decisions. This shift from reactive to proactive management allows you to seize opportunities and mitigate risks more effectively.
Example:
Owen Mumford, a UK-based medical device manufacturer, used Dynamics 365 to gain better visibility and control over their operations. They
leveraged AI-driven insights from D365, and was able to optimise its supply chain, significantly reducing lead times and improving forecasting accuracy. This allowed them to better meet customer demands and improve overall efficiency, positioning them as a leader in their industry.
Streamlining Operations with Seamless Automation
Automation is not just about saving time—it’s about transforming the way you do business. D365 and the Power Platform offer a suite
of automation tools designed to streamline operations across your business. From automating routine tasks such as invoice processing and customer follow-ups to creating complex workflows that integrate various business processes, these tools enable your team to focus on innovation and growth.
Example:
Bron Afon Community Housing, a Welsh social enterprise, faced significant challenges in managing their housing services efficiently. By implementing
D365 and the Power Platform, they automated several key processes, including maintenance scheduling and tenant communication. This automation reduced the time spent on administrative tasks by 48%, allowing the organisation to focus more on improving tenant services and expanding their housing portfolio.
Customer Service with AI-Driven Personalisation
Customers today expect personalised, responsive service delivered instantly. D365 Customer Service, powered by
Copliot, helps you meet these demands by predicting customer needs, offering tailored solutions, and resolving issues more quickly. AI-driven chatbots and automated case management ensure that your customers receive the attention they deserve, around the clock.
Example:
Brompton Bicycle, a renowned bicycle manufacturer, utilised D365 to enhance their customer service operations. By integrating AI-driven chatbots, they were able to provide 24/7
support to their global customer base, handling inquiries more efficiently and ensuring a consistent, high-quality customer experience. This implementation led to a significant improvement in customer satisfaction and a reduction in response times, helping them maintain a reputation for excellent customer service.

Every business is unique, and D365 recognises this by offering extensive customisation options through the Power

This customisation capability means you’re not just adopting a one-size-fits-all solution—you’re building a platform that grows with your business.
Example:
Fortnum & Mason, the iconic British department store, sought to improve its customer
engagement and operational efficiency. By customising D365, they developed a bespoke CRM system that aligned with their luxury brand and unique customer base. This system enabled them to deliver highly personalised experiences to their customers, driving increased loyalty and higher sales during key retail periods.
