Over 230,000 organizations — including 90% of Fortune 500 companies — already use Copilot Studio to design and personalize AI agents. And that’s just the beginning. By 2028, businesses are expected to deploy a total of 1.3 billion AI agents. The introduction of Microsoft Copilot Tuning marks a new chapter in human–AI collaboration. But what exactly is it?
What is Copilot Tuning and How Can It Be Used?
Microsoft 365 Copilot Tuning, introduced at Microsoft Build 2025, is a powerful tool that allows organizations to tailor language models to their unique needs — no in-house IT expertise required.
With Copilot Tuning, companies can:
Customize AI models to match their communication style and terminology
Create AI agents that understand internal processes and company-specific workflows
Maintain full data control — all operations remain within the Microsoft 365 environment, and none of your data is used by Microsoft to train foundational models
Real-World Applications of Copilot Tuning
Jack Rowbotham from Microsoft shares examples of how different industries can benefit:
A law firm can design an agent that reflects its specific tone and legal expertise — accelerating document creation and generating arguments that combine internal knowledge with the client’s unique context, helping build the strongest possible case.
A consulting firm can tailor agents to industry-specific language and requirements, leveraging its deep sector knowledge to deliver personalized support at scale.
A New Era of Human–AI Collaboration
Copilot Tuning brings us closer to intelligent, context-aware AI that goes beyond automation. These agents act as true partners — understanding your organization’s voice, processes, and goals.

If you want to:
Automate your company’s operations
Improve your KPIs
Accelerate digitalization and gain a competitive edge
Automated processes, accurate predictions, and downtime prevention – these are the key characteristics of a competitive manufacturing operation. In an era of advancing ERP and AI technologies, there’s no room for manual process management. An efficient manufacturing company leverages the right digital tools—but which systems should you implement in 2025?
You likely already have WMS, MES, or APS systems in place, and your employees use automation in their daily workflows. But the real question is: are these tools working together optimally?
Choosing an ERP system is no longer just about collecting data—it’s about transforming it into a competitive advantage. So, what features should a manufacturing ERP system have in 2025?
1. Full integration of all processes
Distributed IT infrastructure is a thing of the past. A modern ERP system must unify production management, warehousing, finance, and sales within a single ecosystem. Systems that enable real-time information flow between departments help eliminate delays and errors.
An example of such a solution is Dynamics 365 Business Central—a comprehensive ERP system from Microsoft. It offers advanced modules tailored to all areas of operations, ensuring seamless integration across the organization.
For example, when the system detects a low level of a key raw material, it automatically generates a demand request and forwards it to the procurement department or triggers an order with the supplier. At the same time, the manufacturing module receives information about a potential delay, allowing for schedule adjustments and preventing downtime.
2. Integration with manufacturing-specific tools
You’re probably already using manufacturing-specific tools such as MES systems for shop floor monitoring, APS for advanced planning, or CMMS for maintenance management. However, if your ERP system doesn’t integrate seamlessly with these tools, instead of improving efficiency, they may create extra work, leading to data inconsistencies and operational confusion.
Dynamics 365 Business Central is a globally recognized ERP system, consistently ranked among the best for years. Many companies specializing in manufacturing solutions design their tools as extensions of this system, such as:
SFC 4FACTORY – a real-time production progress monitoring tool that enables precise control over shop floor processes.
APS 4FACTORY – an advanced production planning solution that reduces downtime and optimizes schedules.
CMMS+EAM 4FACTORY – a maintenance management system that helps prevent failures and extend machine lifespan.
Maciej Kotula, APS 4FACTORY Consultant:
To simplify integration with Dynamics 365 Business Central, we implement a dedicated EIS 4FACTORY (Enterprise Integration Services) package—a set of software and services that enables seamless connection of both new and existing IT systems. The integration package includes:
ESB 4FACTORY (Enterprise Service Bus)
DLS 4FACTORY (Data Load Service)
EIS 4FACTORY ensures:
Integration of any IT systems, whether cloud-based or on-premise
Automation of the integration process
Easy expansion of communication between systems, adaptable to various real-world scenarios
Data security – integration services communicate with connected systems using their built-in authorization mechanisms
Advanced monitoring of data exchange processes
Effective integration with multiple solutions, especially Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central with APS 4FACTORY, SFC 4FACTORY, and CMMS+EAM 4FACTORY
3. Built-in artificial intelligence
A system without AI capabilities will become obsolete within just a few years. Artificial intelligence in IT systems not only enables predictive insights and process optimization but also takes over some of your employees’ tasks.
Advanced AI-driven capabilities:
Advanced business analytics – Modules like Item Intelligence predict which products have the highest sales potential and help optimize inventory levels.
Production schedule adjustments after disruptions – APS 4FACTORY with the AI 4FACTORY module ensures smooth rescheduling.
Failure risk detection – CMMS+EAM 4FACTORY with the AI 4FACTORY module helps identify potential breakdowns before they occur.

Although advanced OCR technology has found widespread use in streamlining accounting processes, it was not originally designed for accounting. OCR (Optical Character Recognition) was initially developed as a tool for recognizing text in documents such as books or official letters and converting it into an editable digital format. Its adaptation to accounting processes arose from the industry’s need for fast data extraction and processing from invoices, contracts, and other documents.
OCR solutions designed for accountingnow offer far more capabilities than simple text recognition. They are equipped with features that significantly simplify daily tasks, save time, reduce errors, and improve efficiency in accounting departments. How do they work? Let’s take a closer look.
OCR-based systems – applications in accounting
Imagine a stack of documents on your desk—invoices, payment confirmations—and electronic PDFs filling your inbox, each with a different layout. Some have vendor details in the top left corner, others in completely different locations. Some include net amounts, while others show gross amounts. In this scenario, you end up spending hours manually entering data into your accounting system.
A good OCR solution can automatically recognize data on documents—regardless of their layout—and assign it to the appropriate categories in your accounting software. It processes both physical and electronic documents, recognizing their structure and extracting the correct amounts. Moreover, with an OCR system integrated with ERP, you no longer need to manually input documents—the system does it for you. For you, this means significant time savings, and for your company, it minimizes errors.
But that’s not all. Advanced OCR systems offer additional features:
Automatic document classification: OCR can identify the type of document and assign it to the correct category in your system.
Detecting missing data: If an invoice is missing a VAT number or date, the system can detect it and automatically flag the issue.
Report generation: Through integration with accounting software, OCR enables quick generation of summaries based on extracted data.
OCR as an Extension of ERP Software
OCR systems serve as valuable tools that enhance the functionality of ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) systems. In accounting, ERP solutions like Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central enable comprehensive financial management, cash flow tracking, and cost analysis. Integrating OCR systems allows data extracted by OCR to be directly transferred into the ERP system, streamlining processes by centralizing all data—from invoices to reports—in a single platform. This unification simplifies data analysis and retrieval.
ERP systems themselves offer features that significantly improve accountants’ workflows. For instance, the accounting module in Dynamics 365 Business Central provides:
Automated payment reconciliation.
Real-time financial reporting.
Cash flow forecasting based on collected data.
In summary, integrating OCR with ERP systems enhances these features further by eliminating manual data entry and accelerating the entire process.
ERP and OCR – Integration
For OCR and ERP systems to work seamlessly, proper integration is essential. The systems must be well-configured to ensure smooth and efficient data exchange, which requires expertise and experience in implementing such solutions.
We specialize not only in deploying ERP systems but also in integrating them with modern tools like OCR. If you’re looking to optimize your accounting processes, feel free to reach out to me. We’ll assist you not only in selecting the right solution but also in its implementation and ongoing support tailored to your accounting needs.

In tasks related to physics, chemistry, and biology, they perform at a level comparable to PhD students.
On the qualifying exam for the International Mathematical Olympiad (IMO), they scored 83%, while GPT-4o only managed 13%.
In programming competitions like Codeforces, they ranked in the 89th percentile.
How do the o1 models work?
The models are trained using reinforcement learning techniques, incorporating the “chain-of-thought” (CoT) reasoning method. According to the creators, this approach allows the models to refine their thinking process, explore different strategies, and identify their own mistakes. As a result, their reasoning becomes more aligned with how humans approach problem-solving.
Another key feature is their focus on safety. These models are specifically trained to follow safety and ethical guidelines, making them better at avoiding the generation of inappropriate or harmful content—an essential factor given their increasing intelligence.
The models are available in two versions: o1-preview and o1-mini. Each version is designed for different types of tasks.
The Future of Business Management with AI
The breakthrough in AI is already a reality, one that can significantly enhance process efficiency and accelerate business growth. Microsoft Dynamics 365 is steadily introducing new AI-powered features, such as Copilot, which automate tasks ranging from content creation to project management. With each update, the AI Assistant demonstrates increasingly advanced capabilities, which we can offer to our clients.

On April 26-27, 2022, at the PURO hotel in Łódź, the IT Vision team had the honor of attending the annual meeting for RamBase Partners. Among the participants of the meeting, there were other leaders in the ERP system implementation market: DELEGATE, Gama System Polska Sp. z o. o., ARCUS SOFT, Todis Consulting.
A special place in the event’s program was occupied by practical workshops conducted by the RamBase team: Elin Seldal Rinden, Partner Development Manager; Hendrik Dybdahl, Customer Success Manager, Eldin Jakupovic, Business Analyst; Rafał Bruzda, Sales Manager, Marcin Feczko, Pre-Sales. A demo presentation of the RamBase system by Mr. Rafał Bruzda and a session on the value of the financial module by Ms. Małgorzata Kostyla, Chief Accountant – Autostore, combined with the practical side of operating the system, brought great value to the subsequent panel discussion.
The meeting took place in a friendly atmosphere, full of good energy that encouraged the sharing of competences, ideas and perspectives.
We joined the conference for RamBase partners. During the meeting, the company presented the latest changes and new solutions added to the RamBase system. We could also get to know the implementation of the system in Aarbakke “behind the scenes” and see how RamBase can support manufacturing companies and industry 4.0. The company’s representatives also briefly summed up the company’s recent successes.
RamBase new solutions
The most interesting topic of the meeting was, of course, the news in the RamBase system. Some of the latest solutions are:
Simple logging into the system
Better desktop access to the application
Improvement of the “drag and drop” function
New module of contracts / agreements
Mobile applications
Real-time access to data in the mobile application
The team responsible for new solutions at RamBase also introduced the functioning of BI and Power BI solutions, API connections, the activity of portals and the possibilities of the mobile application. Thanks to this, we were able to better see how the RamBase system is developing. Importantly, changes and new functionalities in the system are influenced by its users and implementation partners. The team when planning and preparing new solutions is largely guided by the demand for functionalities reported by its users.
Aarbakke – manufacturing and industry 4.0
Aarbakke is RamBase’s largest customer so far. The company has implemented a system for 300 users. RamBase supports manufacturing, industry 4.0 and all processes in the company. By adjusting the processes to the best standards, the company improves its functioning using RamBase solutions and good practices. The implementation in Aarbakke shows that the purchase of a new system is a good time to introduce changes in the company.
We know RamBase team better
During the meeting, we also got to know the sales team operating in Norway, Sweden, Denmark, Great Britain and, of course, in Poland. They are people who support RamBase implementation partners in their daily work, helping to better understand the needs of customers and meet their expectations.
Is RamBase the best system for manufacturing companies? We ask Odd Magne Vea, RamBase’s CSO, and Paweł Prymakowski, CEO of IT Vision, how RamBase supports manufacturing companies. We answer the question of why it supports production better than other solutions. And explain how it is possible that the system can be implemented in just 8 weeks. Odd Magne and Paweł also answer whether the system is ready to support companies on the Polish market.
Maria Olszańska: Good morning. Today with me is Odd Magne Vea, CSO of RamBase Company and Paweł Prymakowski, CEO of IT Vision.
A brief history of RamBase
I would like to start this interview with quick introduction. RamBase system is an ERP born in Norway. It was originally created for Hatteland company. But when its creators saw the success of the system, they decided to share it with another entrepreneurs. So RamBase entered other markets, but when RamBase entered Polish market they joined forces with IT Vision. And it’s how IT Vision became the first implementation partner in Poland.
We have started this year’s first RamBase implementation in Poland. I think it a great opportunity to talk a about the system. And to let people know the system a little bit better.
Odd Magne, we can find in many places and resources information that RamBase is a perfect fit for manufacturing companies. Is it true? And if yes, why? What makes it special?
Odd Magne Vea: Hi, yes, as you said Maria. One of the special things about RamBase is it was originally made to support our own manufacturing company. And this also means that we have experienced the needs of the industry, first time ourselves. Unlike many other systems RamBase is built with a detail focused on manufacturing and the supply chain, where the finance system then is the result of all of these activities done in the manufacturing and the warehouse.
RamBase – a system for manufacturing companies
RamBase is not made for all types of different companies. We focus all our efforts on manufacturing and distribution companies. And the result is that we have deep and extensive functionality for our target industries.
My last point here is that RamBase is continuously updated automatically. That means that our customers don’t have to worry about technical installations, and updates, and all off these things. It also means that our customers automatically receive new and updated functionality. And that their system is never out of support.
Maria Olszańska: You mentioned several times that the specific functionalities of RamBase are the systems’ big advantage. And what are the functionalities that facilitates manufacturing? Are in RamBase some functions that other systems do not have (but should)? What are the advantages in production over other solutions?
Odd Magne Vea: A very important distinction with RamBase is that it is a fully ERP system with the specific functionality in the whole work process from the shop floor to the financial. Within the same system. And this gives our customers a great control of the whole business in one system. It means that finance can drill down into the transactions on the shop floor and have control over the full work process.
Complex needs of manufacturing companies
When it comes to functionality, we have focused on companies with complex needs in what we called regulated businesses. This means that our customers often have demanding customers themselves or regulatory report need. And very concrete examples are extensive support of traceability, serial numbering and documentation. That fits very well with many manufacturing companies and electronical manufacturing companies for instance. There is also very good integrated quality and deviation system built in to all the processes. The result of this is that our customers can realize lots of standard functionality within the same solution. And not have to use a lot of time and money to develop and modify other functionality.
Maria Olszańska: So, it is really good that we’re focusing just on manufacturing companies because we can give them what they really need. Because you as RamBase and Hatteland understand those needs.
RamBase vendors boast about the quick implementation of the system. Paweł, is it really possible to start running this system in just 8 weeks?
Paweł Prymakowski: RamBase and its projects methodology helps us to reduce significantly the time needed for the system implementation. Of course, the cloud model is also helpful. You don’t need to focus; you don’t even need to touch any technical problems. But what is important that most manufacturing functions that in typical ERP system requires some customization or add-ons. In RamBase are available just out-of-the-box so the time and cost are reduced.
Functionalities for production available “out of the box”
Also, I can add to what Odd Magne said about unique features for manufacturing. It is the fact that if you take a look onto sales order or production order you can see all the connected documents, you can see all the workflow, your status in the workflow, where are you, from one point.
So, on one screen, you need to have a big screen, but on the one screen you can see everything whatever is need for your everyday work. And what is the most impressive, what I have seen in the companies that uses RamBase in everyday work, is that on the production floor the guys have two boards in the work center. The one is with the tools like screwdrivers, drillers, or keys. And on the other is the big screen with RamBase. So, they are just all they need for everyday work. So that is really impressive that RamBase is available and helpful on each and every center on the production floor. Not only in the office.
Maria Olszańska: That’s really good. It supports not only the paperwork and the planning but also the real manufacturing and producing goods and items. But RamBase is accelerating on Polish market. As I mentioned before it was born in Norway. So, is the system prepared for Polish law, tax, and accounting requirements?
Paweł Prymakowski: I can say that together with system vendor we invested a lot of time to prepare the localization package that is not just minimal basic feature. But it covers also good practices and some optional functions that make the accounting work more efficient.
A system for manufacturing companies adapted to Polish requirements
We made use of our long experience in implementing the global systems in Poland. So, we could see what the shortages are sometimes comparing to the local solutions and we managed to create really good localization. We used our knowledge and experience in consulting the production and development of localization packages.
This is the common work of the Polish and Norwegian teams. And really good piece of collaboration, good piece of work in my opinion. So, I’m sure the localization is really top-quality model even if its continuous work that still requires a lot of time or effort to be compliant and up to date to the changes that are implementing by our regulator and also are upcoming in the near future.
Odd Magne Vea: If I can add to that. We had customers in Poland for quite many years now. And we stared to develop this localization together with those customers. The big change here came when we also got IT Vision with us. To have this local experience implementing finance for a lot of Polish companies from before. And we could kind of take system further. Not being just the foreign system with some Polish functionality. But actually, performing like local Polish system. And together with IT Vision that has been, a lot of work has been put into it, and probably will be to put in the future as well to keep it updated. But that means that our goal is to kind of, to perform like a local Polish system on all of this issues.
Maria Olszańska: That’s great! So, we have for Polish customers Norwegian system, which is really prepared for Polish requirements. Which can be implemented in just 8 weeks and is the perfect fit for manufacturing because the manufacturing company was the first one for which RamBase was created. I hope that it will encourage manufacturing companies to get a little bit more interested in RamBase system to support their everyday work. Odd Magne, Paweł, I’m really glad that we had a chance to talk a little bit about the system. And thank you for your time and the interview.

We entered the new year with a new energy, starting the implementation of Microsoft Dynamics 365 for a new customer – Santiss Group – in the cloud. We are especially pleased with this cooperation, because it is our first implementation which is fully based on cloud solutions.
Microsoft Dynamics 365 in the full cloud
Full cloud means that the entire system is installed in the cloud. Thanks to this, our new customer doesn’t need the equipment on which the system is located or data is stored. It’s all in the cloud. Users only need any device that can connect to the Internet to use the system.
The advantage of the cloud solution is not only the attractive price. Which results from the lack of the need for hardware facilities and the predictable cost of maintaining the system. Cloud solutions from Microsoft also mean high quality data protection and security. It is Microsoft, as the creator of the system, responsible for the security of data stored in the cloud.
New customer from manufacturing industry
Our new customer, Santiss Group, is a company from the cosmetics, hygiene and household products’ industry. It delivers its products both to Poland and Europe. The quality of the products is important to Santiss Group. That is why the company manufactures its products in a modern production plant. Additionally, Santiss Group ensures safety at every stage of creation and production.
As part of the cooperation, we will implement the ERP system in the Dynamics 365 Business Central cloud. Thanks to the installation of the system, Santiss Group will receive support in the area of full planning, purchases, sales and storage. Dynamics 365 Business Central cloud will also support it in the order production, material requirements planning (MRP), and working with forecasts.
The plan combines long-term investments. It assumes skills
upgrading, strong local partnerships, support for digital transformation and
the latest cloud technologies. All this to help realize the vision of the “Polish
Digital Valley” and accelerate digitization and innovation for
companies, government and citizens. Implementation of the plan will also be
possible thanks to establishing a partnership with the Polish National Cloud,
established by PKO BP and PFR.
