Case Study: GSE Environmental achieves digital transformation and 70% IT cost savings with Microsoft Dynamics 365

Improving geosynthetics and impacting the global community through innovation

GSE Environmental, a U.S.-based pioneer in geosynthetics, needed to replace decades-old, siloed data systems that slowed collaboration, obscured actionable insights, and consumed IT resources with maintenance tasks. As the company sought to continue delivering high-quality products that protect infrastructure, water, and the environment, its IT leadership determined a radical digital transformation was required.

By moving to the Microsoft Cloud and implementing Dynamics 365, GSE consolidated data, unified CRM and ERP processes, and nearly eliminated on-premises infrastructure—cutting IT spend by over 70%. The change reduced routine maintenance, freed IT to focus on higher-value work, improved real-time visibility and predictive analytics, and enabled proactive actions that protect customers, communities, and the environment.
