“DynamicsPrint® with IMP is the heart of our planning estimations and imposition systems.
Estimating has become an important science. Our young estimators can deliver accurate plans just as an experienced estimator, with loads of experience, would.”

“The reason we chose DP was because it’s an industry solution which solves many of the problems we had in the standard Microsoft Dynamics setup. Also, there was demand from the management to have final costing, which was also a major challenge in the standard Dynamics solution.
DynamicsPrint® also helps us greatly with scheduling and shop floor management. The data gathered gives us great insights, and results in a much more cost-efficient production.”

“The professional and highly skilled DynamicsPrint® team led the implementation to develop the expertise internally at DCM with a team of Subject Matter Experts from each of the specialized print production areas. DynamicsPrint’s expertise regarding the system and the industry was instrumental to ensuring the configurations were done properly. As this is a highly configurable solution, the approach and implementation was very well structured and ensured that the team worked from the basic setups to the more complex setups with a pace that was manageable and retainable.
DynamicsPrint® adjusted the resource requirements to accommodate both technical and functional areas of expertise as needed throughout the project, providing best practice directives to ensure that the proper approach was being followed.”

“I just wanted to let you know how happy I am with DynamicsPrint® and the support you have given KP San Leandro since our launch. The seemingly endless set of tools available really help us run and improve our business.
The visibility into job statuses, P&L, and the ability to create and manage cues that give our team a personalized look into their own area of responsibility have become essential to our business model. I can’t even imagine going back to our old system. Thanks to the DynamicsPrint® team for all your help and support.”

The AI conversation is changing quickly.
For the last several years, most discussions focused on how AI could help people access information faster, generate content, or answer questions more efficiently.
Now the focus is shifting toward execution.
Microsoft’s latest evolution of Copilot Cowork reflects this transition: AI moving from conversation into action by coordinating workflows, interacting with business systems, and helping organizations complete operational tasks across departments.
For the printing and packaging industry, this shift is especially important.
Because print operations are inherently interconnected.
Print Operations Are Complex by Nature
Modern print and packaging environments rely on constant coordination between:
The challenge is not simply managing these functions individually.
It is ensuring they operate together efficiently and in real time.
This is where connected ERP ecosystems are becoming increasingly valuable.
Why Microsoft Dynamics 365 F&SCM Matters
Microsoft Dynamics 365 Finance & Supply Chain Management provides the operational foundation many enterprise organizations need to manage finance, procurement, inventory, supply chain visibility, and business processes at scale.
But for printing and packaging companies, industry-specific operational requirements add another layer of complexity.
That is where DynamicsPrint® extends the Microsoft ecosystem with print-specific functionality designed for:
Embedded directly within Microsoft Dynamics 365 F&SCM, DynamicsPrint® enables organizations to unify operational processes while maintaining the flexibility and scalability of Microsoft’s cloud-native platform.
AI Becomes More Valuable in Connected Environments
The real value of AI increases when systems are connected.
Microsoft’s expanding Copilot ecosystem, combined with integrations across Dynamics 365, Power BI, Microsoft Fabric, and operational workflows, points toward a future where AI can:
DynamicsPrint® already integrates AI-driven capabilities across financial analysis, predictive maintenance, demand forecasting, workflow optimization, and operational analytics within the Microsoft ecosystem.
This moves AI beyond isolated productivity tools and into day-to-day operational decision-making.
The Industry Is Moving Toward Operational Intelligence
The broader trend emerging across manufacturing and print is operational intelligence.
Organizations are no longer evaluating ERP platforms solely on transactional functionality.
Increasingly, they are looking for systems that:
This becomes especially important as production environments grow more complex, labor challenges continue, and customer expectations accelerate.
The Bigger Shift
The future of ERP in print and packaging is coordination.
AI, workflow automation, analytics, and operational systems are beginning to work together as part of a larger connected ecosystem.
And as Microsoft continues expanding Copilot capabilities across Dynamics 365 and enterprise workflows, the value of integrated industry-specific platforms like DynamicsPrint® becomes increasingly strategic.
Because the companies that benefit most from AI may not simply be the ones experimenting with new tools.
They may be the ones building connected operations where intelligence, workflows, and production environments operate together seamlessly.
