The Challenge

How do you roll out new solutions across multiple countries without losing control of your data? That was the challenge facing FCC, a leading waste management company looking to roll out its new ERP and telematics solutions.

They wanted to achieve complete tracking of waste-to-resource conversion rates and track environmental KPIs more accurately, but they were struggling with:

  • Data loss
  • Potential data inaccuracies
  • Collaboration across global teams

The company’s legacy systems weren’t built for global scale. Different countries had different data standards, making it nearly impossible to implement enterprise-wide changes or maintain consistent reporting.

With disconnected systems and no unified governance, the company regularly encountered missing, duplicated, or outdated data, undermining confidence in key metrics. Cross-border teams struggled to align, slowing decision-making and limiting the impact of strategic initiatives.



The Solution

We deployed the 5Y Business Transformation Platform to unify our client’s data across seven countries.

The Platform’s Engineering Suite makes building high-quality data pipelines fast and easy thanks to automated data architecture, common data structures and pre-built logic that ingests data from any legacy software.

In this case, we seamlessly integrated D365 F&O, SAP, Telematics and waste management systems. This enabled advanced, scalable reporting and performance visibility across regional operations.

We implemented the 5Y Business Transformation Platform to:

  • Seamlessly integrate Dynamics 365 F&O, telematics, and industry-specific ISVs
  • Standardise data for scalability and multi-country governance
  • Deliver real-time analytics using 200+ embedded calculators and 80+ KPIs
  • Support global collaboration with consistent, shared insights

We enabled rapid program deployment and empowered key business users and executives worldwide with timely access to critical insights.

With consolidated analytics, FCC unlocked the ability to strategically prioritise investments in high-performing regions while proactively addressing underperforming areas, driving targeted interventions and maximising business impact globally.
