THE CONTEXT BEHIND THE ROLE
What your functional consultant brings to the work.
Project Operations work brings together delivery and financial perspectives. A resource assignment, approved timesheet, project contract and invoice each carry different responsibilities. Your specialist should understand which applications and teams own each part of the project lifecycle.
For a Dynamics 365 Project Operations Functional Consultant, the central responsibility is business process design and application configuration. Match this responsibility to your existing team so design, execution and acceptance have clear owners.
- Translate the business workflow into configuration and acceptance criteria.
- Identify where standard functionality fits and where another role is needed.
- Support user testing, documentation and operational handover.
