About the System
A well-established steel manufacturer supplying structural components for large construction projects. Operations previously depended on Excel spreadsheets and fragmented legacy tools to manage hundreds of parameters for quotes and production.
Challenges
Over 700 parameters were tracked manually in Excel, causing data duplication, inaccurate planning, delayed schedules, and no real-time visibility. Revision tracking was impossible, leading to frequent production rejections and slow order processing.
Solution
Deployed Odoo with automated quote templates, custom fields, Manufacturing, Inventory, Purchase, Sales, and Logistics modules. A digital thread connected sales quotes directly to production orders, with mobile access and automated procurement workflows.
Impact and Benefit
Order processing became 30% faster and quotation preparation time reduced by 50%. Achieved 100% visibility on every revision, significantly fewer production rejections, and centralized real-time dashboards. Manual spreadsheet work was eliminated.
Conclusion
Odoo transformed fragmented steel manufacturing into a streamlined, traceable process. The company now delivers projects faster with higher accuracy and full control across sales, production, and logistics.
