Overview

Resia is a pioneering real-estate development company focused on designing, building, and delivering high-quality, attainable rental housing across the United States. By leveraging modern building methods and an integrated approach spanning land acquisition, design, manufacturing, and construction, Resia brings multi-family communities to market with speed and efficiency. 

As the company rapidly scaled its geographic footprint and portfolio, it recognized that its legacy infrastructure created constraints around data visibility and operational coordination. To sustain momentum, Resia prioritized building an AI-First digital backbone capable of streamlining end-to-end operations, rather than settling for incremental, traditional ERP improvements—setting the stage for a frontier-level transformation. 

Alletec understood our business and created a solution aligned to our scale and growth. We were impressed by their vertical experience, D365 BC expertise, and ability to simplify complex ERP transitions.

Key Challenges

  • Complex, disconnected systems​: An over-customized SAP HANA environment, combined with disparate applications like ResMan, Coupa, Kyriba, and Global Shop, created a fractured technology ecosystem.  
  • High costs and rigid infrastructure:  The existing landscape imposed a high burden of annual licensing costs and expensive API maintenance. This fragmentation increased operational complexity and support dependencies, diverting resources away from strategic growth. 
  • Manual work obscuring workflows: A heavy dependency on manual processes across Finance, Procurement, and Project operations increased the risk of data inaccuracies and delays, preventing the visibility required for true digital transformation. 

Solution Highlights

  • Application Consolidation: Alletec consolidated an over-customized SAP HANA system into Dynamics 365 Business Central, creating a unified finance and operations platform while reducing complexity and maintenance effort. 
  • Enhanced Financial Control: Implemented strategic integrations, including a repurposed Kyriba setup, enabling accurate bank reconciliation, ZBA processing, and cross-entity financial data exchange—without additional development costs. 
  • Copilot Productivity and Automation: AI-driven automation and Copilot capabilities have been introduced to dramatically improve efficiency in key areas like bank reconciliations, data analysis, and reporting.
