Microsoft Dynamics Sure Step

Structure implementation methodology for Microsoft Dynamics products.

Sure Step is the official Software Process from Microsoft for Dynamics Projects. Like any other Software Process, Sure Step tells you WHO shall do WHAT in WHICH ORDER and who is RESPONSIBLE for what. So a software process can be seen as the sum of years of knowledge and best practice in software development. Sure Step defines process phases, milestones roles, artefacts, cross-phase-processes and additional projekt management processes. Sure Step supports a broad range of products: Dynamics AX, Dynamics NAV, Dynamics GP, Dynamcis SL and Dynamics CRM. Microsoft Dynamics Sure Step Methodology is an end-to-end customer lifecycle which describes the standardised processes and disciplines necessary to implement Dynamics solutions. Sure Step is structured as a general methodology with a product-specific layer for each Dynamics product, providing guidelines and best practices to help successfully implement Microsoft Dynamics solutions. The content consists primarily of prescriptive phase-by-phase and activity-by-activity descriptions for completing each stage of an implementation. The methodology can be adapted and applied to different project types. Once a project type is selected, Sure Step provides the relevant documents to fit that project type. Documents are provided for guidance at specific industry levels, including manufacturing, public sector, retail and service.
