Stable ERP systems for regulated industries. Built to pass audits and scale operations.

We design, validate, and operate Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central for companies where compliance, traceability, and operational continuity are non-negotiable.

ERP programs fail when compliance and operations are treated separately.

Most ERP partners focus on functionality and timelines.
In regulated environments, that is not enough.

TrustFort combines ERP engineering with validation, data integrity, and operational risk management. We take responsibility for system stability, audit-readiness, and long-term operability - not just go-live success.

Our teams work where ERP systems are business-critical and regulated: manufacturing, quality, finance, and integrated third-party systems.
The result is fewer deviations, predictable rollouts, and systems that remain compliant as your business evolves.

  • ERP engineering with validation and compliance built in
  • Proven in regulated, high-volume, multi-system environments
  • Designed for audits, upgrades, and long-term operation

What Companies Actually Need

More than just an ERP system

Regulated operations need ERP systems that remain stable under change - audits, upgrades, new interfaces, and growth.
That requires clear ownership across operations, quality, and IT: validated processes, reliable integrations, and data you can defend.
We help organizations reduce operational risk by turning ERP from a project milestone into a controlled, auditable capability.


The TrustFort Approach

ERP delivery with compliance built in

We start with the critical paths - order-to-cash, procure-to-pay, production, and quality - and map them to regulatory and operational requirements.
From there we design the system landscape: Business Central, interfaces, data layer, and reporting - with validation and documentation built in.
Finally, we support long-term operation: releases, monitoring, and continuous improvement - so the system stays compliant as the business evolves.


Proven under real-world pressure.

We support clients operating high-volume, audit-relevant ERP environments across manufacturing, e-commerce, and finance. From stabilizing fragile integrations to scaling order volumes and ensuring end-to-end traceability, our work has enabled predictable growth, reduced deviations, and sustained audit-readiness - even in complex, multi-system landscapes.

From ERP Stability to Operational and Management Control

In regulated environments, systems must be validated, processes traceable, and data reliable. TrustFort supports companies across the full lifecycle of their core systems - from ERP and process integration to analytics-ready data foundations.

When to involve TrustFort

Organizations typically involve TrustFort at points where ERP systems become critical to compliance, stability, or scalability. Common situations include:

  • Before audits, inspections, or regulatory assessments
  • Ahead of ERP upgrades, migrations, or major releases
  • When integrations or data flows become unstable or difficult to control
  • After challenges with previous implementation or support partners
  • During growth phases under increased regulatory or operational pressure

This is not an exhaustive list, but a reflection of situations where early clarification reduces long-term risk.


How we work

Responsibility and decision ownership

We assume responsibility for decisions affecting regulatory compliance, system integrity, and the long-term operability of ERP environments. Delivery speed is never prioritized over controlled system behavior, data integrity, or audit readiness.

Roles, responsibilities, and decision authority are clearly defined throughout the engagement to ensure traceability and avoid unmanaged risk.

Quality and compliance by design

Quality and compliance requirements are considered from the outset. Validation activities, documentation, and change control are embedded into system design, implementation, and operation rather than treated as downstream controls.

This approach supports continuous audit readiness across the ERP lifecycle, including upgrades, integrations, and operational changes.

Lifecycle and change management

ERP systems are designed and operated with their full lifecycle in mind. Audits, releases, integrations, and organizational changes are treated as expected and planned events.

System changes are assessed, documented, and implemented in a controlled manner to maintain system integrity and compliance over time.

Documentation, traceability, and efficient collaboration

Work is structured, documented, and traceable. Decisions, actions, and follow-up tasks are recorded in established collaboration and documentation systems (including Jira and Confluence) to support transparency, continuity, and auditability.

Collaboration is remote-first and planned. Meetings are prepared in advance, documented with clear outcomes, and followed by defined action items. Customer time is treated as a limited resource and used efficiently.


What we do - and what we do not do

What we do

We support organizations operating in regulated environments in the responsible design, implementation, and operation of ERP systems.

Our work focuses on:

  • ERP systems where auditability, system integrity, and controlled change are critical
  • Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central and its integration into regulated landscapes
  • Clear responsibility for decisions affecting compliance, data integrity, and long-term operability
  • Lifecycle-oriented support covering implementation, upgrades, integrations, and ongoing operation

What we do not do

To ensure focus and reliability, there are areas we intentionally do not cover:

  • We do not provide generic ERP implementations without regulatory or quality-critical context
  • We do not prioritize delivery speed over audit readiness or system integrity
  • We do not operate as a general staffing or body-leasing provider
  • We do not deliver marketing-driven "best practice" solutions without operational accountability

This clarity helps align expectations early and reduces avoidable risk later.


Analytics and Decision Transparency

On top of integrated ERP and process landscapes, we enable analytics-ready data structures and Power BI reporting. This provides transparent insights into production, quality, and financial performance – with drill-down to batches, documents, and transactions.

Business Outcomes

By extending Business Central with analytics and AI, companies achieve:

  • Faster and more reliable management decisions
  • Predictive visibility instead of retrospective reporting
  • Reduced manual reporting effort and Excel dependency
  • Improved audit readiness and compliance transparency
  • Better utilization of data across structured and unstructured sources

Analytics becomes a strategic asset, not an afterthought.

Built on ERP Excellence and Regulatory Experience

Unlike generic BI providers, TrustFort builds analytics on top of deep ERP engineering and regulatory expertise.
We understand Business Central data structures, validation requirements, change control, and audit expectations.
This ensures analytics solutions that are not only powerful, but also stable, compliant, and fit for regulated environments.

From ERP stability to data-driven leadership.
Let’s discuss how analytics and AI can extend your Business Central landscape.


Industries with regulatory pressure need more than standard ERP expertise.

TrustFort works with industries where compliance, traceability, and data integrity directly impact business continuity. Our experience is rooted in regulated environments with complex production, quality, and financial processes - not generic ERP rollouts.

We understand regulatory expectations because we operate systems under them.
