Questions buyers ask us most
What is a Sherpa implementation for Business Central?
A guided implementation model where your team works through a structured rollout with expert support. Instead of handing the full project to a partner, your team participates in workshops, configures the system in stages, and builds hands-on knowledge along the way.
How is Sherpa different from a traditional ERP implementation?
The difference is how the work gets done. In Sherpa, your team is actively involved in configuring and learning the system through a guided process. This is what keeps it faster and more affordable than a traditional implementation, where a partner takes on more of the design, build, and delivery.
Is Sherpa only for small businesses?
No. Sherpa is often a strong fit for small and midsize organizations, but the better question is whether your team wants a faster, more structured implementation with active internal participation. If your scope is focused and your team is ready to engage in the process, Sherpa can work well regardless of company size.
How long does a Sherpa implementation take?
Sherpa is designed to move quickly. Core financials are typically live in roughly 6–8 weeks, following six weeks of guided workshops centered on the essentials your team needs to go live. For broader context, Business Central implementations more generally can range from about 3 to 9 months depending on scope, data complexity, integrations, and customization needs.
How much does Sherpa cost?
$23,500 as a one-time fee, plus your Business Central licensing. Because it's a defined, tightly scoped program focused on core financials, the cost stays predictable and well below a traditional implementation. Optional add-on sessions are available if you need deeper functionality later.
Does JourneyTeam provide support after go-live?
Yes. Every Sherpa engagement includes a 12-month support plan with 20 hours of break/fix support, plus self-serve resources and community connects. Advanced support plans are available if you need more.
