I am in a similar situation - project team of 1 in a small NFP that can't afford the prohibitive consulting fees.

- Apply / purchase licenses as required
- Follow the implementation process through Lifecycle Services (https://lcs.dynamics.com/)
- And/or the Power Platform Center of Excellence guide at https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-platform/guidance/coe/starter-kit
The communication and documentation across different offers and solutions is a mixed bag of results, and the continuous handballing to pricey consultants is likely to steer us away soon enough.

Other than the Fundraising app which I had to set up manually, everything else was pretty basic. I simply followed the docs step by step. My only thing now is that I have very little data to enter. 😉
