About
The person doing the work is the person you talk to.
I'm Carlos, and I run Dynamics Data Pros — a solo consulting practice built around five things: Microsoft Dynamics 365 Finance & Operations, BI & data engineering, AI adoption, Azure infrastructure, and custom application development. I've been working in the ERP space since 2014, and data — pipelines, reporting, machine learning, and increasingly AI — is one of the strongest things I do.
Those five overlap more than they look like they should. F&O runs on Azure and generates the data that feeds the reporting. AI systems need somewhere to run — often the same local or Azure infrastructure — and are only as good as the data pipeline feeding them. Custom applications often need to talk to F&O or surface a model's output. I ended up specializing across all of it because in practice, clients rarely need just one piece — they need someone who can see how the pieces fit together, and is accountable for the whole picture instead of a single ticket in a queue.
On the F&O side specifically, that includes code-level work: X++ extensions, custom tables and forms, and business logic that configuration alone can't reach — not just functional setup.
Most of that F&O experience was built on the inside, as an employee, before going independent — which is why you won't find named client case studies for it here. What I can share is the shape of the work.
AX 2009 → Dynamics AX 2012 R3 upgrade
A full version upgrade, not a fresh implementation — the kind of project where every existing customization has to be re-evaluated, not just carried forward.
Warehouse Management System implementation
End-to-end WMS rollout — the operational side of supply chain, where the system has to hold up against a physical floor, not just a spreadsheet.
Food & discrete manufacturing
Two different manufacturing disciplines with two different sets of rules — lot tracking and shelf life on one side, work orders and BOMs on the other.
Retail / grocery, without the Retail module
Ran grocery chain operations through core supply chain and finance modules rather than the dedicated Retail module — a different (and less common) way to solve that problem.
Rescue & stabilization
Brought in after go-lives that didn't go well — to find what was actually broken and get the system stable, not just add more scope on top of a shaky foundation.
How I work
Four steps, no surprises.
Discovery call
A free 20-minute conversation about what's actually broken or missing — not a sales pitch.
Scoped proposal
A written proposal with a fixed price band, milestones, and what "done" looks like before any work starts.
Build & check-ins
Regular short updates, not radio silence until a big reveal. You see progress as it happens.
Handoff & support
Documentation you can actually use, plus an optional retainer if you want ongoing support after go-live.
