ODOO FOR MANUFACTURERS
Materials, production and costing in one system.
For printing presses, contract manufacturers and growing factories. We set up Odoo so you see material shortages before they stop a job, know where every order is on the floor, and know what each job really cost.

WHAT WE FIX
Three problems every growing factory knows.
Material runs out in the middle of a job
Paper, ink or raw material is checked by hand, so shortages show up when the machine stops.
In Odoo: confirming an order reserves its materials from the bill of materials. Reorder rules raise a purchase before stock runs out.
Nobody knows where a job is
Customers call to ask about their order, and someone walks the floor to find out.
In Odoo: each order moves through its stages as work orders. Every team marks its step done, so the status is always on screen.
The real cost is known too late
Job costing is rebuilt in Excel at month-end, long after the price was quoted.
In Odoo: every manufacturing order carries its material and work costs, so you can compare what you quoted with what the job really cost.
ORDER TO DELIVERY
One job, followed from quote to invoice.
We start with a written blueprint of how your floor actually works: your stages, your materials, your approvals. You sign it off before we configure anything.

QUESTIONS FROM FACTORY OWNERS
Before you move the floor to Odoo.
- A written blueprint before we build
- A named senior consultant
- A written status every week
- Hypercare after go-live
- Training and documentation. No lock-in.
Can Odoo handle made-to-order work, like printing?
Yes. Each order can create its own manufacturing order with its own materials and stages, so every job is planned and costed on its own.
We cost our jobs in Excel today. Can that move into Odoo?
Yes. We set up your bills of materials and work stages so the cost builds up on each order as materials are used and work is done. Then you compare it with what you quoted.
Do we need every app on day one?
No. Most factories start with Manufacturing, Inventory, Purchase and Accounting. Quality, Maintenance and PLM can follow when you're ready.
How long does it take, and what does it cost?
It depends on your processes and how many apps you need. After the blueprint, you get a written plan and a price. We won't guess either before we've seen how your floor works.
Can our invoices go to FBR from Odoo?
Yes. We set up FBR e-invoicing in Odoo and test it before go-live.
