Microsoft Dynamics Project Operations Functional Consultant

Were looking for a D365 Project Operations Functional Consultant to lead the design and configuration of a Dynamics 365 PO implementation for a renewable energy project development client.

The engagement covers the full project lifecycle - from land acquisition through interconnection and financial close - and requires a consultant who can assess where native D365 PO capabilities meet business needs versus where custom development or hybrid third-party integration is required.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead requirements gathering and fit-gap analysis across the clients core project workflows, mapping each to native D365 PO functionality, custom extensions, or hybrid integrations
• Configure and implement D365 PO modules covering:
• Project tracking stage-gate management - native workflow and milestone configuration
• Real estate landowner management - custom entity/data model design where native PO lacks land lease and parcel tracking
• Environmental permitting workflows - native configuration of compliance tracking and document approvals
• Interconnection queue management - custom development to model utility-specific interconnection application and study tracking
• Procurement EPC contractor management - native D365 PO procurement and vendor workflows
• Budget tracking financials - native budget-vs-actual reporting tied to project stage-gates
• Stage hand-offs approvals - native approval workflow configuration across development -to- construction-to-operations transitions
• Document management file infrastructure - hybrid design combining native D365 document storage with third-party DMS integration for large-scale project documentation
• Translate renewable energy development processes (land, permitting, interconnection, EPC) into D365 PO functional design documents
• Partner with technical/development consultants to scope custom entities, Power Platform extensions, or third-party connectors where native fit is insufficient
• Support UAT, data migration planning, and end-user training for project teams
• Advise the client on trade-offs between native configuration and custom build, balancing long-term platform maintainability against short-term timeline pressure

What Were Looking For

• 5-6+ years of hands-on D365 Project Operations (or D365 FO Project Management/Accounting) functional consulting experience
• Proven experience running fit-gap analysis and translating business workflows into D365 configuration and functional design specs
• Familiarity with Power Platform (Power Apps/Power Automate) for scoping custom/hybrid extensions
• Domain exposure to project-based industries - renewable energy, infrastructure, construction, or capital projects - strongly preferred given the land, permitting, and interconnection- specific workflows involved
• Microsoft Dynamics 365 certification (e.g., MB-300, MB-310, or Project Operations Functional Consultant Associate) preferred
• Strong client-facing communication skills - this role sits directly between business stakeholders and the technical delivery team
