Case Study: Azure Northwest doubles in size without adding staff with Velosio (Microsoft Dynamics SL)

Azure Northwest Builds Foundation for Accelerated Growth with Microsoft Dynamics Solution

Azure, a Pacific Northwest homebuilder, had outgrown QuickBooks and needed to integrate back-office accounting with its BuildTopia homebuilding software to stop manual double‑entry and get better daily reporting. They engaged Velosio to assess processes and implement Microsoft Dynamics SL integrated with BuildTopia to replace labor‑intensive workflows and support multi‑company accounting.

Velosio implemented Microsoft Dynamics SL with BuildTopia integration, provided remote training, and built an “allocator” to automate intercompany cost allocation. The result: Azure doubled in size without adding staff, cut invoice creation from 12 clicks to 3 and can approve/process 100 invoices in 10 minutes, eliminated double‑entry errors, improved reporting and budgeting, and now manages 13 companies efficiently—delivered at a low cost by Velosio.
