2021 a difficult year to forget
Many of us dealt with tragedy and sadness which helped put perspective back into why we do what we do. Evaluate what is most important and focus on that. However, for many of us it was just survival mode but somehow, we came through the year of stress.
On a positive note, we received the acceptance from all our clients that remote work is sustainable and efficient. This has enabled DMIX to reduce time spent in traffic and driving between clients to pouring energies into solutions. In addition, remote working allowed us to open a solution presence in Port Elizabeth South Africa. Working remotely does not come without challenges. A big one is figuring out when to step away from the home office and go into home life. Another is international time zones. During 2021 and into 2020 DMIX has been developing and supporting solutions in countries such as Australia, Brazil, New Zealand, UAE, and the USA. Setting up project and stakeholder meetings is not easy when the time difference is 13 hours, yet we persevere and give it our best.
2021 and into 2022 key skills in Microsoft Azure and Finance and Operation D365 continue to be at the forefront. Along with such is Integration between different cloud solution such as D365 CRM, D365 FO, Salesforce, Sychroteams, and custom client portals. This has also led to growing DMIX data migration solution experience, especially around using Microsoft Master Data Services to enable data clean-up and audit approval. DMIX focus is to continue to deliver solutions focused on the Microsoft Azure technology stack, enabling team members to certify in relevant verticals.
The DMIX 2022 project pipeline is as full as ever, the key will be to find the balance and not burn out.
