Straight talk
Is Cateran the right fit?
A senior-led firm isn't for everyone. Here's an honest view, so you don't waste a call.
A strong fit if you…
- Have a Business Central project that's stalled, over budget or live but broken
- Run a customized NAV system and need a safe path to Business Central
- Have multiple companies, currencies or heavy integrations
- Want the senior expert accountable for the outcome, not just the sale
- Value straight answers, even uncomfortable ones
Probably not a fit if you…
- Need the lowest possible price for a simple, out-of-the-box setup
- Want the cheapest team available, whatever its experience
- Are looking for Dynamics 365 Finance & Operations, CRM or non-Microsoft ERP
- Need a 24/7 help desk staffed around the clock
How it starts
A clear path from first call to a plan you can trust
30-minute call
Talk through where you are, what's at stake and what's not working. No sales pitch.
Assessment
A focused review of your system, data, customizations and integrations, scoped to your situation.
Written plan
Findings, risks, options and a realistic estimate — in plain language your CFO can act on.
Delivery
Led by the principal who did the assessment, with the senior Cateran team doing the work.
Depth where it matters
Functional and technical, under one roof
Most ERP problems sit where finance, operations and code meet. Cateran's team works across all three — and the people who understand your consolidation requirements work side by side with the people who write the AL code behind them.

Common questions
Can you take over a project another partner started?
Yes — that's a core part of what Cateran does. We start with an independent assessment of where the project really stands, then agree on a plan before any further work begins.
Can Cateran handle a large project?
Yes. Cateran has led projects with 200+ concurrent users and multinational scope. The principal architect leads design and delivery, supported by Cateran's senior Business Central consultants, developers and reporting specialists.
Do you work outside Utah?
Yes. Cateran is based in Salt Lake City and works with clients across the U.S. remotely, with on-site visits when they add value. Projects have included multinational work, including on-site consulting in Ireland, Germany, and Japan.
How is pricing handled?
Every engagement is scoped to your situation. After an initial call, you'll get a written proposal with a clear scope and estimate before any work begins.
