Case Study: Leggett & Platt, Incorporated achieves a successful transition from legacy financial systems with Microsoft Corporation

Diversified manufacturer successfully transitions from legacy financial systems

Leggett & Platt, Incorporated, a global diversified manufacturer, was looking to consolidate multiple legacy financial systems and reduce manual work while improving consistency in financial and operational processes. The company turned to Microsoft Corporation, using Microsoft Dynamics AX in Azure along with Microsoft Adoption and Change Management services to support the transition.

Microsoft Corporation helped Leggett & Platt build a detailed change management plan, strengthen communications and training, and prepare a network of internal champions to guide adoption. The weekend go-live moved about 1,500 users from legacy systems to Dynamics AX with smooth operations, successful payments and cash applications, and stronger ongoing business-process improvement capabilities.
