Field Service Offer D365 Accelerators
D365 Field Service Accelerator: Dispatch Smarter. Complete Faster. Bill Accurately.
A fixed-fee, fixed-scope deployment of Dynamics 365 Field Service with work order management, AI-optimized scheduling, and mobile-ready field workflows with Copilot built into the technician experience. Your dispatchers and field team are live, productive, and AI-assisted in weeks.
The Problem
Why Field Service Projects Stall
Field service implementations get heavy fast. Work order logic, scheduling rules, asset hierarchies, mobile flows, integrations to ERP and billing, everyone wants their edge case in Phase 1. The result is a long build, a delayed rollout, and technicians stuck on paper, email, and whiteboards while the system waits to be finished.
Scope
What's Actually Included
The D365 Field Service Accelerator is fixed-fee and fixed-scope. You know exactly what you're getting before you commit. Every item below is included, nothing is left for a change order.
Work order, asset, and resource data migration
Customer assets, service agreements, open work orders, and technician records mapped and moved from your current system.
Copilot in Field Service activated on day one
AI-generated work order summaries, guided resolution steps, and technician assist live when your team logs in.
AI-optimized scheduling and resource management
Schedule assistant and resource scheduling optimization match the right technician, skills, and parts to the right job.
Role-based training
Hands-on training for dispatchers, field technicians, and admins on both the platform and Copilot capabilities.
Go-live and early adoption support
We stay through stabilization so dispatch issues, mobile quirks, and adoption gaps get resolved before they become problems.
Delivery Rhythm
How the Field Service Accelerator Works
Three phases. A predictable path to go-live. Fixed scope from kickoff to stabilization.
Timeline: Most Field Service Accelerators complete in 6 to 10 weeks depending on data complexity, mobile rollout, and team size. The exact timeline is confirmed during scoping, before you sign.
1. Scoping and Alignment
Confirm the configuration, service territories, data sources, and training plan. Document scope and sign off on the fixed fee before any build starts.
2. Configure, Migrate, and Enable
Best-practice configuration is stood up, work order and asset data is migrated, mobile is deployed, and Copilot in Field Service is activated in your Microsoft 365 tenant.
3. Go-Live and Enablement
Dispatchers, technicians, and admins are trained by role, go-live is supported in real time, and early adoption is monitored through stabilization.
Outcomes
What Your Team Gets on Day One
You don't get a half-configured dispatch board and a training deck. You get a productive, AI-assisted field service operation in weeks, with a platform ready to evolve as you learn what else it needs to do.
- Dispatchers working from a single schedule board, not spreadsheets
- Copilot generating work order summaries and guiding technicians through resolution
- AI-optimized scheduling that matches skills, parts, and location to the job
- Mobile-ready technicians with AI-assisted troubleshooting in the field

Common Questions
Field Service Accelerator FAQ
The questions service operations leaders ask before they commit. If yours isn't here, ask your TrellisPoint advisor.
What if we're migrating from a field service system that isn't on the pre-approved list? We migrate work orders, assets, agreements, and resources from any source system. Pre-approved integrations only govern live integrations.
Data migration is included from any source system. The pre-approved integration list applies to live integrations we wire up at go-live, not to the source field service platform you're moving off of. If you're coming from ServiceMax, IFS, Salesforce Field Service Lightning, or a legacy in-house dispatch tool, we map and migrate work orders, customer assets, service agreements, and technician records as part of your tier's standard scope.
Does the Accelerator include the mobile app rollout? Yes. The D365 Field Service mobile app is configured and deployed in every tier. Offline mode is included starting at the Medium tier.
Every tier deploys the out-of-the-box D365 Field Service mobile app to your technicians, configured for your work order types and forms. Medium and Large tiers add offline mode, so technicians can complete work in low- or no-connectivity environments and sync when they're back online. Device provisioning (purchasing and enrolling iOS or Android devices) is your responsibility, but we'll guide the Intune or Endpoint Manager configuration.
How does scheduling work, and is it manual or AI-optimized? Small uses Schedule Assistant for guided manual dispatch. Medium adds Resource Scheduling Optimization. Large adds territory management.
The Small tier ships with manual scheduling supported by Schedule Assistant, which suggests the best technician based on skills, location, and availability. Medium adds Resource Scheduling Optimization (RSO), Microsoft's AI-driven scheduling engine, which auto-matches and optimizes the daily schedule against your business rules. The Large tier adds territory management on top, so dispatchers can divide work by service area with cleaner crew and asset assignments.
What about IoT integration for connected assets and predictive maintenance? IoT and predictive maintenance are Phase 2 work in D365 Evolve, not part of the Accelerator.
The Accelerator gets your work order, scheduling, and mobile foundation live. IoT integration (connecting telemetry from customer assets to trigger work orders) and predictive maintenance models are Phase 2 work, handled through D365 Evolve. We do this deliberately because IoT scoping is much more accurate after you have real work order data flowing through D365.
Do we need Microsoft 365 already in place to run Copilot in Field Service? Yes. Copilot in Field Service requires the right Microsoft 365 and Copilot licensing. We confirm before signing.
Copilot in Field Service requires Microsoft 365 with the appropriate Copilot license attached. We'll confirm your licensing during scoping and flag any gaps before signing. If you don't have the right SKUs yet, we can help you procure them through TrellisPoint or your existing reseller before kickoff.
What's not included in the fixed fee? Microsoft licensing, IoT integration, ERP/billing integrations beyond the pre-approved list, custom development, and Phase 2 work.
The fixed fee covers configuration, work order and asset migration, mobile app deployment, Copilot activation, training, and stabilization support per your tier. It does not cover Microsoft 365 or Dynamics 365 licensing (you procure those separately), IoT or telemetry integration, ERP and billing integrations beyond the pre-approved list, deeply custom development, or post-stabilization Phase 2 work. Phase 2 is handled through D365 Evolve, a separate continuous-improvement engagement.
