Independent D365 Technical Consultants
X++ development, integrations, and custom extensions — when standard D365 is not quite enough. Senior D365 developers who build to a design, write code that will survive an upgrade, and document what they build.
Find a D365 Functional Consultant
Any of These Keep You Up at Night?
Your partner's developers are writing custom X++ code and you have no independent review of what is actually being built or how maintainable it is.
An integration that was scoped as two weeks of work is now in its eighth week and still not stable in the test environment.
You went live with custom code that nobody fully documented. Now the partner who built it has rolled off and nobody can touch it without breaking something.
You need post go-live enhancements but your partner's mobilization timeline is six to eight weeks and your business cannot wait.
Every D365 release wave is a source of anxiety because you have no idea what the customizations will break this time.
You are paying senior developer rates for work that is clearly being done by someone junior who is learning X++ on your project.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why is there no Before phase for a technical consultant?
Technical consultants — the D365 developers who write X++ code and build integrations — work best once the design is agreed. Bringing a developer in before the architecture and functional design are locked down is premature and expensive. The right sequence is design first, build second. If you need support before the build starts, our Technical Architect page covers proposal review, integration strategy, and architecture design.
What is the difference between a D365 technical consultant and a technical architect?
A technical architect owns the overall design, integration strategy, and quality governance. A D365 technical consultant — the developer — builds to that design, writing X++ code, developing integrations, creating reports, and executing the technical work. Both roles are essential for any implementation with meaningful customization. The architect sets the standards. The technical consultant delivers the build.
Can your technical consultants work alongside our partner's development team?
Yes — and this is one of the most common engagement models. Independent D365 technical contractors slot into partner delivery teams, fill capacity gaps, provide specialist skills the partner does not have in-house, or deliver independent code reviews of partner-built work. They work collaboratively, not in opposition. The dynamic is straightforward: they write good code, they document it properly, and they hand over cleanly.
How do you ensure code quality for technical consultant deliverables?
Every technical consultant in the community is vetted for real D365 F&O and Business Central development experience — not just certifications. For any significant development engagement we recommend pairing a technical architect alongside the technical consultant so there is independent oversight of what is being built, how it is structured, and what upgrade risk it carries. Quality is built into the engagement design, not bolted on at the end.
What types of D365 development work do your technical consultants cover?
Our D365 technical consultants cover three core platforms. For F&O: X++ development and extensions, Azure Logic Apps and Service Bus integrations, SSRS custom reporting, and DMF data migration packages. For Business Central: AL extension development, custom pages and codeunits, RDLC reporting, RapidStart data migration, and BC API integrations. For Customer Engagement: Power Platform and Power Automate development, Dataverse customizations, custom plugins and workflows, and D365 Sales, Customer Service, and Field Service technical configuration. Across all platforms our technical consultants also cover Copilot Studio agent development, Azure integration services, and independent code review of partner-delivered work. We match you with a technical consultant whose development experience is directly relevant to your platform and build — not a generalist who will figure it out as they go.
Can an independent D365 developer review code that our partner has already delivered?
Yes — independent code review is one of the most in-demand engagements we facilitate. Many companies reach post go-live and realize they have no clear picture of what was built, how maintainable it is, or what the upgrade risk looks like. An independent D365 developer can audit the codebase, identify technical debt, flag high-risk customizations, and produce a prioritized remediation plan. This work is significantly cheaper done proactively than reactively when an upgrade breaks something critical in production.
