What a month! August brings many changes here at Total Enterprise Solutions, as well as welcoming five new customers. Learn what we have been up to this month.
We have been busy working on Project Sapphire and building on the internal processes, tools and knowledge established to date. In August we saw the first phase of the customer portal including our live chat service go live with great feedback. Over the next couple of months we are focusing on customer reporting which will be accessible from within the portal. Further enhancements in the portal and onboarding new services, like our new upgrade assurance service for SaaS customers, will follow.
For more detail on these changes and to provide any feedback on what you would like to see being delivered in Project Sapphire, please get in contact; we would love to hear from you.

Deaf Action is a deaf-led charity providing services across Scotland to the estimated 1,012,000 people living with varying degrees of hearing loss. Deaf Action’s mission is to improve the quality and conditions of life for deaf people.
Following an initial period of discovery TES were able to present a Dynamics 365 CRM demonstration and proposal to Deaf Action on 9th June 2020. The proposed project scope was based on the high priority items identified during discovery process that included Dynamics 365 Field Service and Dynamics 365 for Marketing. This will improve and replace Deaf Action’s processes around reception call logging and tracking, advertising of courses, registration and attendance.
Improvements to Deaf Action’s Equipment Service were also key, along with Fundraising and Marketing. TES were awarded the contract on 25th June 2020 and the project is now well underway.
The Commission for International Justice and Accountability (CIJA) is a non-profit, non-governmental organisation dedicated to conducting criminal investigations during armed conflict and analysing evidence of genocide, war crimes, and crimes against humanity.
TES was selected to implement Dynamics 365 Business Central as their new finance system to help streamline their processes and give CIJA better control and visibility over grants and projects.
CIJA choose Business Central because of its strong multi-entity and multi-currency capabilities. Business Central will provide greater analysis, insight and reporting capability to help maximise the value of their services.
Bible Society was established by Royal Charter to encourage the wider circulation and use of the Bible. In line with that, they work at home and abroad to see Christians confident in the Scriptures, a changed conversation about the Bible in culture and the transformative embodiment of the Bible in the world.
Business Central was selected as a finance and operations system because of its integrated inventory management capability. This joined up approach will give the Bible Society invaluable insight and reporting to facilitate distribution of bibles across the global.
The cloud SaaS model and Business Central’s intuitive interface was another key driver in its selection. These elements mean less effort and resource are needed to manage and operate the system on a day-to-day basis.
Joining the TES family means support every step of the way.
