The challenge

A big integration, a complex landscape

Connecting a university's systems to Microsoft Dynamics CRM touches a lot of moving parts. Before anything could be built, the existing API landscape had to be understood and written down.

What we did
  • Mapped the landscape

    Fully documented the university's existing APIs, so everyone was working from the same picture.

  • Designed the integration

    Delivered the complete technical architecture for the new Microsoft Dynamics CRM integration.

  • Made it buildable

    Turned a complex brief into a blueprint a delivery team can pick up and build from.

  • Architect-level ownership

    One accountable technical lead from discovery through to the final design.

The result

A fully documented API landscape and a complete technical architecture for the Microsoft Dynamics CRM integration, ready to build.
