The context

Waterproofing specialist with a growing network of sites and training centres

EPDM Solutions, founded in 2007 and headquartered in Onnaing near Valenciennes, provides waterproofing solutions across the Greater North of France, from Strasbourg to Rouen via Lille, Lens, Valenciennes and throughout the Hauts-de-France region.

Before the Odoo ERP project, EPDM Solutions was already operating from its Onnaing headquarters, which houses offices, a warehouse of over 1,500 m2 and a Training Centre, while also managing additional sites in Rouen and Strasbourg to keep stocks and training activities close to customers across a wide geographical area.

EPDM Solutions’ priorities were to reliably supply waterproofing materials, organize training for builders, roofers and waterproofing professionals, and coordinate inventory and operations across several sites to keep serving customers efficiently throughout the Greater North of France.

Their needs

Structuring multi-site operations and training with a single ERP

EPDM Solutions needed an integrated management solution that would support its waterproofing operations, centralize information across its head office and regional sites, and help coordinate logistics and training activities for professionals in the Greater North of France.

  • Centralize key business information for waterproofing products, inventory and services.
  • Support collaboration between the headquarters, warehouse, Training Centre and regional sites.
  • Streamline the organization and follow-up of training for builders, roofers and waterproofing professionals.
  • Gain a consolidated view of activities across the Greater North of France to support decision-making and day-to-day operations.

The proposed solution

An Odoo ERP backbone to support EPDM Solutions’ regional operations

Captivea France North implemented Odoo ERP for EPDM Solutions as a central platform to structure their operations, harmonize data across the Onnaing head office and the Rouen and Strasbourg locations, and better support the company’s waterproofing and training activities throughout the Greater North of France.

The first step of this project is to perform a complete analysis of the client's Odoo environment.
