Active Business & Technology

What Active Business & Technology does

Active Business & Technology (doing business as Grupo Active) is a Spain-based Microsoft partner specializing in Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central (formerly Navision) ERP implementations. Founded in 1993 and headquartered in Sabadell (Barcelona), the firm employs 100+ professionals with an average of 10 years of tenure and operates six regional offices (Barcelona, Madrid, Valencia, Sevilla, Salamanca, Bilbao) covering the Iberian Peninsula and the Canary and Balearic Islands. It is a Microsoft Gold Partner with Solutions Partner designations across Business Applications, Data & AI (Azure), Infrastructure (Azure) and Modern Work, and an LS Retail Diamond Partner for omnichannel retail deployments.

The company's technical foundation is the Microsoft stack — Dynamics 365 Business Central, Dynamics 365 CRM (Sales, Marketing, Customer Service), Microsoft 365, Power Platform (Power BI, Power Automate, Power Apps, Power Virtual Agents), SharePoint and Azure — extended through a proprietary catalog of 50+ add-on modules addressing Spain-specific regulatory and operational requirements. The compliance-heavy modules (mySII for AEAT VAT books, myFacturae for FACe electronic invoicing, myTicketBai for Basque foral tax authorities, myIRPF, myIEPNR for non-reusable plastic packaging tax, myRETO for phytosanitary transactions, myProrrata) are differentiated, with several AppSource-certified. Vertical solutions include LS Central for retail (jewelry, fashion, perfumery, hardware stores, supermarkets, restaurants), myFoodTech for the meat industry, myBuilding for construction, and IOAlimentación for food processing. Operational modules span warehouse management (mySGA, mySGA Lite), banking integration with PSD2 certification across 400+ banks (IQ Banking Core/SEPA), electronic signature (myDocSign via BFeSign), OCR document capture (AEAT-certified), EDI interchange, occupational risk prevention (myPRL), technical service (mySAT), real estate management, and equipment/PPE tracking (myEquipmentManager). Infrastructure services run on 2 owned Spanish data centers alongside Azure reselling.

Active generates revenue across three principal streams: (1) Microsoft license resale (Dynamics 365, Microsoft 365, Power Platform, Azure) as a Gold Partner; (2) professional services including parametrization, customization, implementation, training (FUNDAE-bonificable), migration from legacy Navision, and dedicated multilingual support, with SME deployment entry-level packages publicly priced at €6,400 (fixed) plus €82/user/month and €1,600/year in support; and (3) subscription/recurring revenue from proprietary add-on modules sold via Microsoft AppSource. Commercial motion is primarily direct enterprise field sales with inside-sales capture via web/email/phone, supplemented by the government-backed Kit Digital agent channel targeting SMB digitalization. End markets are SMB and mid-market Spanish enterprises across retail, manufacturing, construction, food and beverage, distribution and logistics, meat processing, and general commercial — segmentation is principally vertical with regulatory localization as a horizontal wedge.
