Dynalogic plans to debut advanced manufacturing apps for Dynamics 365 Finance and Supply Chain Management at DynamicsMinds 2026, extending its manufacturing software strategy beyond the Business Central products it has been promoting to Microsoft Partners.
Martin Smit, Partner Development Manager at Dynalogic, said in a recent PartnerTalks interview that the European ISV will use the conference in Portorož, Slovenia, to show the apps live for the first time.
The launch gives DynamicsMinds a product hook for Partners serving discrete and project-based manufacturers.
It also explores how far specialized ISVs can extend Microsoft’s ERP platforms for manufacturers whose requirements do not fit standard finance, supply chain or production templates.
Dynalogic manufacturing apps extend a vertical ERP push
Dynalogic already positions its Birds Suite around Microsoft Dynamics 365 Partners serving manufacturers. The company says its portfolio includes advanced manufacturing, business intelligence, document warehouse, job management and integration products, with a focus on discrete manufacturing and Partner delivery.
Smit framed the company’s approach around vertical depth rather than broad ERP coverage.
“We think BC is a great platform, but we try to bring depth,” Smit said. “We try to make it specific.”
That depth, he said, is aimed at manufacturing scenarios such as configure-to-order, engineer-to-order and project-based manufacturing. Smit described customers who need to move information between engineering and manufacturing bills of material, while also managing timelines, budgets, project costs, and reporting.
Dynalogic’s current public product material emphasizes Business Central. Its Birds Advanced Manufacturing for BC page lists item configuration, quality management, project-based manufacturing and CAD/PLM integration as part of its Business Central manufacturing offering.
The planned F&O debut signals a move into the larger Finance and Supply Chain Management side of the Dynamics 365 portfolio. 9altitudes, Dynalogic’s parent organization, also markets 9A Advanced Manufacturing for F&SCM, an accelerator for project-based and discrete manufacturers using Dynamics 365 Finance and Supply Chain Management.
DynamicsMinds gives Dynalogic a Partner audience
DynamicsMinds 2026 is scheduled for May 25 to 27 in Portorož. The event covers Dynamics 365 Finance and Operations, Business Central, Customer Engagement and Power Platform, along with BizTrack sessions aimed at the Microsoft Partner ecosystem.
Smit said Dynalogic will attend as a sponsor and bring its director and chief technology officer to the event. He also said the company sees DynamicsMinds as a strong fit because of its mix of technical content and community engagement.
For Dynalogic, that Partner audience is central to the sales motion. Smit said the company is selective about the Partners it works with because manufacturing knowledge is a key part of the delivery model.
“We need partners that understand not only the Dynamics environment, but they should really, I would almost say, breathe manufacturing,” Smit said.
He said Dynalogic does not want to be treated as a product added only to complete a Partner portfolio.
“We should be the strategic partner and we invest our time, our knowledge, our expertise, to work towards credibility together,” Smit said.
AI enters the manufacturing workflow
The new Dynalogic manufacturing apps also sit alongside the company’s AI work. Smit said Dynalogic has built an agent to support item configuration, a scenario in which changes can affect pricing, production, and related configuration rules.
“We’ve built an agent that literally brings that work of days to a couple of hours,” Smit said.
He also said Dynalogic is developing a supply chain agent for project-oriented manufacturing. The goal, he said, is to help users assess mitigation options when supply chain disruptions threaten project timelines, budgets or customer commitments.
That framing gives the product debut a broader significance for Partners. Dynalogic is not only extending manufacturing functionality across Dynamics 365 platforms. It is also tying AI to operational decisions inside manufacturing workflows, where configuration, engineering, project delivery and supply chain planning are closely linked.
For Microsoft Partners serving manufacturers, the DynamicsMinds debut will be worth watching for two reasons: whether Dynalogic can bring its Business Central manufacturing experience into F&O, and whether its AI work can move beyond demonstration into repeatable Partner-led delivery.
