Challenge

In 2020, Miron’s U.S. team was only seven employees, but they had ambitious plans for growth. QuickBooks couldn’t keep up:

  • Manual data entry and spreadsheets limited efficiency
  • No warehouse management capabilities
  • Poor scalability for growing operations
  • Lack of forecasting, bin management, and shipping integrations
“QuickBooks just wasn’t allowing us to scale in the way we wanted. Too much was still manual, and if we had stayed on QuickBooks, we wouldn’t be able to operate at the level we are today.”
Eelco Scholtens
CEO & Head of Sales

Miron considered NetSuite but ultimately found Business Central more flexible, user-friendly, and seamlessly integrated with Microsoft 365 and Power BI.

Why Business Central + BCS

“We considered NetSuite seriously, but ultimately Business Central was the superior fit — especially combined with Microsoft 365 and Power BI. And with BCS, we knew we had a partner who cared about our business and could advise us on the best way forward, not just execute what we asked.”
Eelco Scholtens
CEO & Head of Sales

BCS quickly designed a solution to support Miron’s U.S. distribution:

  • Dynamics 365 Business Central for ERP backbone
  • Warehouse Insight & Dynamic Ship (Insight Works) for scanning, inventory, and shipping automation
  • eBizCharge for credit card processing
  • Power BI for financial reporting, forecasting, and custom dashboards

BCS also customized quotes, orders, and invoices to simplify pricing and minimize manual entry.

Implementation Story

Miron faced a tight deadline: go live by the start of their fiscal year.
"We really pushed to go live at the start of our fiscal year, and BCS made it happen. It was a rapid implementation, but everything went smoothly — thanks to clean data and a partner who kept us on track.”
Eelco Scholtens
CEO & Head of Sales

The deployment included automating warehouse operations, integrating Power BI dashboards, and enabling scalable processes that would grow with Miron’s team and customer base.

Results

Your business runs on more than just an ERP solution. Sales tools, payroll platforms, and custom apps all need to stay in sync.
We make Business Central the heartbeat of your operations, seamlessly connecting:

Transformed Operations

  • 200% revenue growth since going live in 2020
  • Team expanded from 7 to nearly 40 employees
  • Distribution scaled from 1 to 2 warehouses (West Coast and East Coast)

Efficiency Gains

  • Real-time inventory and lot tracking
  • Automated cycle counts and audits
  • Reduced manual entry and errors

“Our warehouse management simply didn’t exist in QuickBooks. Now with Business Central, inventory accuracy is significantly higher, and our team works with scanners and real-time data instead of spreadsheets.”

Power BI & Reporting Tools

  • Real-time inventory and lot tracking
  • Automated cycle counts and audits
  • Reduced manual entry and erros

“Power BI has been transformative — from real-time P&L to SKU-level forecasting, and even sustainability reporting on our carbon footprint. That’s information we can now give back to our customers.”

Seamless Collaboration

With full integration into Microsoft 365 and Salesforce, Miron’s team collaborates on a unified platform for finance, inventory, and sales.

Partnership with BCS

Over the last five years, Miron has continued to rely on BCS not only for support but for guidance as their needs evolve.

“BCS isn’t just an implementer. They help us think about the most efficient way to run our business inside the tool. That kind of guidance is invaluable.”
“BCS has been a great partner to work with from system design and implementation through ongoing support. Their diligence and expertise have enabled us to automate distribution, improve accuracy, and continuously adapt as we grow.”
Eelco Scholtens
CEO & Head of Sales

Looking Ahead

Miron plans to expand its digital strategy with a customer reordering portal, deeper ecommerce integration, and AI-driven automation through Microsoft Copilot.

“We wouldn’t be able to operate today at our current scale without the move to Business Central. It’s the backbone that allows us to keep growing.”
Eelco Scholtens
CEO & Head of Sales

Takeaway for Wholesalers & Importers

Miron’s story is a clear signal for wholesalers, distributors, and importers facing the same challenges. If QuickBooks or manual processes are holding you back, and NetSuite feels heavy or costly, Business Central with the right partner can give you the flexibility, insights, and scalability you need.
