Case Study: GSE Environmental achieves cloud-first efficiency and 70% IT cost savings with Microsoft Dynamics 365

Improving geosynthetics and impacting the global community through innovation

GSE Environmental, a medium-sized company in the chemicals industry, faced significant challenges with its disparate, on-premises data management systems. These siloed systems made it difficult to correlate data and required excessive IT maintenance, preventing the company from gaining timely, actionable insights. To support its commitment to innovation and quality, GSE partnered with Microsoft Corporation to implement a cloud-first solution using Microsoft Dynamics 365 for Finance and Operations and Azure Cloud Services.

By moving its operations to the Microsoft Cloud, GSE Environmental significantly reduced its on-premises infrastructure and cut its IT spend by over 70%. The Microsoft solution consolidated data management, freeing the IT team from maintenance tasks to focus on high-value activities. The unified system provided real-time data and predictive analytics, enabling GSE to improve collaboration, identify potential issues proactively, and better serve its customers and the global community.
