Senior Solution / Enterprise Architect – Dynamics 365

Context

A public-sector organisation is modernising its applications and business processes related to associations, accreditations, inspections, beneficiaries, grants, payments, document management and reporting. Extensive feasibility, business, architecture and Salesforce studies have already been completed. The purpose of this assignment is not to redefine the business requirements, but to consolidate the existing work and provide senior management with an objective decision-support analysis comparing three scenarios: Salesforce Public Sector Solutions, Microsoft Dynamics 365 / Power Platform, and custom development. The estimated assignment duration is approximately 30 days and the working model is hybrid in Brussels.

Responsibilities

  • Consolidate and leverage the existing functional, architectural and business documentation.
  • Perform a detailed Fit-Gap Analysis comparing Salesforce Public Sector Solutions, Microsoft Dynamics 365 / Power Platform and custom development.
  • Assess whether requirements are covered natively, through configuration, specific development, integration, or are not covered.
  • Compare the target architecture of the three scenarios.
  • Assess hosting, identity management, authentication, security, integrations, governance, operations, support and maintenance.
  • Perform a homogeneous economic comparison of the three scenarios.
  • Assess investment and recurring costs.
  • Produce 5-year and 10-year TCO analyses based on documented assumptions.
  • Build comparable implementation roadmaps covering phases, timelines, workload, dependencies, resources and prerequisites.
  • Identify implementation, skills, maintenance, licensing, integration, security, GDPR, NIS2, reversibility and vendor-dependency risks.
  • Analyse the benefits and constraints of regional platform mutualisation.
  • Assess organisational and financial impacts of each scenario.
  • Produce a comprehensive decision-support report for senior management.
