Industries

Amplio delivers Microsoft Business Central to UK small and mid-sized businesses. The same product, but every industry pulls on different BC modules and bends them in different directions. The pages below show how we approach each sector — which BC modules carry the load, which Amplio extensions slot in, and the operational pain points we usually find first.

Sectors we serve

  • Manufacturing — multi-site inventory, BOM costing, shop-floor integration, lead-time forecasting.
  • Distribution & Wholesale — WMS integration, three-way matching, pick-pack-ship automation, customer pricing.
  • Professional Services — time & billing, project profitability, retainer invoicing, dimension-driven reporting.
  • Retail — POS → GL posting, stock movement, promotional margin tracking.
  • Financial Services — multi-currency, FCA-aware controls, intercompany rollups.
  • Multi-Entity Groups — consolidated VAT (MTD), allocation journals, cross-company recharges, group reporting.

Why a vertical lens matters in BC

Business Central's standard module set covers the financial spine of every industry, but the difference between a smooth go-live and a six-month change-request loop is which modules you switch on, which dimensions you wire up, and which workflows you accept rather than re-engineer. We pick a configuration baseline that fits your sector before customising — so you get to value quickly, then bolt on the extensions that solve your actual problems.

Not on the list?

The six sectors above are where we have the most depth. We've shipped BC into adjacent areas too — F&B, hospitality, charities, life sciences, education — and the diagnostic methodology is the same. If your sector isn't represented and you'd like a view, get in touch.
