Set up agreed finance, sales, purchasing, inventory, cash and fixed-asset processes using a standard-first Business Central approach.

03

Rapid5 Package Overview

What Is the Rapid5 Package?

Rapid5 is a five-week, fixed-scope Leaforge implementation package for organizations with focused requirements that can be delivered mainly through standard Business Central configuration. Package fit is confirmed before the delivery schedule begins.

The package includes agreed core configuration, focused master-data and opening-balance migration, testing/UAT, role-based training, cutover preparation and package-defined stabilization. Requirements outside the confirmed scope are deferred, separately scoped or moved to Rapid8 or Full Implementation.

Configure agreed customers, vendors, items, pricing and discounts, sales, purchasing, inventory transactions and standard document flows required for go-live.

Week 3

Week 4 – Migration, UAT & Training

Week 5
Rapid5 Readiness

What the Five-Week Route Requires from Your Team

The Rapid5 schedule assumes confirmed scope, prepared source data, access to key users and decision-makers, attendance at testing and training, timely approvals and no material change to the agreed go-live requirements.

01

Project Ownership

Provide a project owner, finance and operational key users, and decision-makers who can respond within the package schedule.

02

Prepared Data

Clean, own and validate the agreed master data and opening balances so migration activity can happen when scheduled.

03

UAT & Training Participation

Complete agreed user-acceptance scenarios, attend role-based training and confirm critical processes before cutover.

04

Scope Discipline

Protect the confirmed go-live scope and defer lower-priority enhancements if they would affect the five-week delivery route.

Scope Change

What happens if new requirements appear?

New requirements are assessed against the confirmed Rapid5 scope. If they cannot be accommodated without affecting the package route, they should be deferred, separately estimated or moved to Rapid8 or Full Implementation.

Review Rapid5 Readiness
Package Fit

Is Rapid5 the Right Fit for Your Business?

Rapid5 is a strong fit when your day-one requirements are standard-first, your data can be prepared quickly, key users are available and the business can protect a focused go-live scope for five weeks.

01

Moving Beyond Basic Accounting or Spreadsheets

A good fit when the business needs connected finance, sales, purchasing and inventory but does not require a complex ERP transformation for the first go-live.

02

Standard-First Core Processes

Finance, sales, purchasing, inventory, cash and fixed assets can operate mainly through standard Business Central configuration.

03

Prepared Data & Available Key Users

Master data and opening balances can be prepared and validated on schedule, while key users can attend configuration reviews, UAT, training and go-live activities.

04

Protected Go-Live Scope

The business can keep the agreed day-one scope stable and move lower-priority improvements into a later support or customization phase.

When Rapid5 Is Too Small

Choose Rapid8 or Full Implementation when the requirement needs more room.

Choose Rapid8 when the implementation still fits a package-led approach but needs more reporting, permissions, UAT, migration preparation, user groups or adoption support. Choose Full Implementation when the project requires significant customization, integrations, process redesign, extensive migration, advanced manufacturing or warehouse requirements, or phased rollout.

WHY CHOOSE LEAFORGE FOR RAPID5

Why Choose Leaforge for Rapid5

Rapid5 depends on disciplined scope and customer readiness. Leaforge keeps package boundaries, weekly outcomes, data, testing, user preparation and go-live activities aligned so speed does not replace implementation control.

Requirements that do not fit the five-week route are identified early and moved to Rapid8, Full Implementation, Support or Customization rather than allowed to destabilize the package.

Rapid5 Fit Assessment

Confirm that your process scope, data, users and go-live requirements genuinely fit Rapid5 before the five-week delivery route begins.

Defined Weekly Outcomes

Each week has clear package activities and customer responsibilities so the project can move without open-ended discovery or uncontrolled scope growth.

Confirmed Scope & Commercial Boundaries

The package scope and fee are agreed before delivery; additional requirements are identified and handled separately rather than absorbed into the five-week route.

Standard-First Delivery

Use standard Business Central capabilities for priority go-live processes and defer unnecessary complexity until the business has stabilized.

UAT & Role-Based Training

Key users validate agreed scenarios and receive training around the processes they will perform after go-live.

Stabilization & Next-Step Planning

Use the package stabilization period to resolve early issues, then move future reporting, integrations, customization or additional capabilities into the appropriate follow-on service.

AFTER RAPID5 GO-LIVE

Expand Business Central After the Rapid5 Go-Live

Rapid5 Package FAQs

Rapid5 Business Central Implementation FAQs

Understand the five-week package scope, customer responsibilities, migration, UAT, training, licensing, scope changes and when Rapid8 or Full Implementation is the better route.

1. What is the Rapid5 Business Central package?

Rapid5 is a five-week, fixed-scope Leaforge implementation route designed for focused requirements that can be handled mainly through standard Business Central. The five-week schedule begins after package scope, responsibilities, data readiness and key-user availability are confirmed.

2. Can Business Central really go live in five weeks?

Yes, when the business fits the Rapid5 model. The route assumes confirmed scope, prepared data, available key users and decision-makers, timely UAT and training, prompt approvals and no material scope change during delivery.

3. What is included in Rapid5?

Rapid5 typically covers core company and finance setup, cash and banking, payables, receivables, purchasing, sales, inventory, fixed assets, focused master-data/opening-balance migration, key-user UAT, role-based training, cutover, go-live and package-defined stabilization. Exact scope is confirmed before project start.

4. What must our team prepare before Week 1?

Your team should identify a project owner and key users, confirm the agreed go-live scope, prepare required company information and source data, reserve time for configuration reviews, UAT and training, and ensure decision-makers can respond within the five-week schedule.

5. What data can be migrated through Rapid5?

Rapid5 is designed for a focused migration of agreed master data and opening balances. Large historical datasets, multiple legacy sources, complex cleansing or reconciliation requirements should be assessed separately and may require Rapid8 or Full Implementation.

6. Can Rapid5 include customizations or integrations?

Rapid5 is standard-first. A very small, clearly bounded requirement may be assessed, but significant AL development, complex integrations, advanced automation or process redesign are outside the normal Rapid5 package and should be moved to Rapid8, Customization or Full Implementation.

7. How are UAT, training and go-live handled?

Key users validate agreed business scenarios during UAT, receive role-based training in the configured environment and confirm readiness before cutover. Week 5 covers final agreed migration/cutover activities, live validation, user support and package-defined stabilization.

8. What happens if the scope changes after Rapid5 starts?

New requirements are checked against the confirmed package scope. If they cannot be accommodated without affecting the five-week route, they should be deferred, separately estimated or moved to Rapid8 or Full Implementation.

9. What is the difference between Rapid5 and Rapid8?

Rapid5 is the more focused five-week route. Rapid8 remains package-led but provides more time for broader process configuration, reporting, permissions, migration preparation, UAT, user groups, training and adoption support.

10. Are Microsoft Business Central licenses included in Rapid5?

Rapid5 covers Leaforge implementation services within the confirmed package scope. Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central licenses and third-party subscriptions are separate unless explicitly included in the commercial proposal.

11. When should we choose Full Implementation instead?

Choose Full Implementation when the project requires significant customization, multiple or business-critical integrations, process redesign, extensive historical migration, advanced manufacturing or warehouse requirements, complex multi-company needs or phased rollout.
