Businesses migrating to SAP or Microsoft Dynamics 365 face the daunting challenge of navigating a complex data landscape where fragmented, poor quality legacy data creates a perfect storm.
Companies often face a dangerous knowledge gap in data migration know-how, discovering too late that their solution partners lack specialised expertise for complex ERP migrations, whilst internally, the transient nature of migration work means in-house skills are rarely developed. This critical capability void frequently leads to costly delays, compromised data integrity, and ultimately, failed ERP implementations.
We can help.
Konexxia eliminates your risk with 50+ years of specialist ERP Data Migration expertise . Our honed and tested 6-step methodology and advanced automation platform tackle the most complex migration challenges head-on, bridging the gap between inexperienced implementation partners and your internal team.
We deliver what others can't.
On-time, in-full, high-integrity data that actually works.
Why Konexxia Data Migration?
Efficient Automation
Experience accelerated ERP data migration cycles through strategic automation. Our advanced load processes can reduce overall cutover times by up to 75%.
Increased Visibility & Control
Gain comprehensive visibility into your ERP data migration project through intuitive dashboards and reporting tools tracking critical metrics such as source data quality, validation errors and load cycle progress & timings.
Improved Quality
Our automated, target-driven validation protocols deliver a 95% reduction in defects compared to manual methods. For your ERP data migration, quality remains our paramount objective.
Reduced Resourcing
Automation of manual tasks during ERP data migration significantly reduces workstream headcount by eliminating repetitive, error-prone processes that traditionally require substantial human intervention. By implementing automated extraction, transformation, and validation tools, organisations can typically achieve a 30-40% reduction in data migration personnel requirements.
Reduced Hyper-care
Our processes significantly reduce ERP hyper-care requirements by eliminating root causes of implementation issues. Clean, consistent data prevents system exceptions and workflow disruptions. This transforms post-implementation from costly remediation to smooth business-as-usual operations.
Faster Adoption & ROI
ERP data migration quality directly impacts your success. Efficient, accurate migration processes ensure users encounter fewer errors when using the new system, fostering greater confidence and adoption. This accelerates user productivity, shortens the learning curve, and delivers faster ROI as organisations can quickly leverage the ERP's capabilities with trustworthy data.

What is data migration in the context of an ERP implementation?Data migration involves transferring your existing business data from legacy systems into a new ERP. This process includes extracting data from your current systems, transforming it to match the target system's data model, and loading it into your new environment while ensuring data integrity and validation throughout.
-
Why should we hire a specialised consultancy for our ERP data migration?Data migration is a complex, high-risk process that requires specialised expertise. Our consultancy brings years of SAP & Dynamics 365-specific migration experience, a proven methodology, automated tools, and validation frameworks that minimise risk and ensure a successful transition. DIY approaches often lead to data integrity issues, project delays, and increased costs.
-
What makes your data migration approach different from other consultancies?Our approach stands out through our: Purpose-built automated toolset specifically designed for SAP\Dynamics 365 migrations Rigorous validation framework that ensures data accuracy at every step Proven methodology refined through years of successful ERP migrations Dedicated data migration specialists with deep SAP & Dynamics 365 knowledge
-
What does your data migration methodology involve?Our methodology follows a structured approach: Assessment & Planning: Analysing source systems, establishing mapping rules, and creating a detailed migration plan Data Extraction: Using our toolset to extract data from legacy systems Data Cleansing & Transformation: Cleaning, de-duplicating, and transforming data to match SAP or Dynamics 365 requirements Mapping & Validation: Mapping data to appropriate target fields with built-in validation checks Test Migrations: Conducting multiple test migrations to identify and resolve issues Final Migration: Executing the production migration with comprehensive validation Post-Migration Support: Providing support to address any data issues after go-live Check out our methodology page for a more detailed breakdown of our approach.
-
How long does a typical ERP data migration project take?The duration varies based on data volume, complexity, and source systems. Typically, migrations take at least 6 months, with more complex projects often requiring longer timeframes. Our process begins with a thorough data discovery and impact assessment stage that produces estimated timelines based on the complexity of both source and target systems. While our automated toolset significantly optimises the technical migration process, proper planning, testing and validation are critical to ensure a successful outcome.
-
How do you handle data cleansing and quality issues?Our approach includes: Comprehensive data profiling to identify quality issues early Automated cleansing routines for common problems (duplicates, inconsistent formats, etc.) Data enrichment where appropriate Detailed reports highlighting data quality issues requiring business decisions Validation rules that prevent poor-quality data from entering your new system
-
How do you minimise business disruption during migration?We minimise disruption through: Detailed planning to identify the optimal migration window Multiple test migrations to reduce issues during final cutover Efficient, automated processes that reduce migration time Comprehensive go-live checklists to ensure all steps are completed Post-migration support to quickly address any issues
-
What involvement do you need from our team during the migration?We'll need: A data migration owner from your organisation to make key decisions Subject matter experts for data mapping validation (typically 2-4 hours per week) IT support for access to source systems (minimal time commitment) User involvement in validation activities (varies, but typically 1-2 days total) Decision-makers available during critical migration phases
-
What types of source systems can you migrate data from?Our toolset supports migration from virtually any source system, including: Legacy ERP systems (SAP, Oracle, Sage, etc.) CRM platforms (Salesforce, SugarCRM, etc.) Custom-built databases (SQL Server, Oracle, MySQL, etc.) Spreadsheets and flat files Cloud-based applications with accessible APIs Existing Dynamics ERP
