The context
An integrated ERP to support end-to-end cosmetic and alcohol-based product operations
EURL LABORATOIRE COFANE is a contract packager that manufactures and packages alcohol-based and cosmetic products of all volumes, managing the full value chain from production and packaging to storage, logistics and in-house quality control.
Before the project, the company relied on multiple tools and manual processes to handle accounting, inventory, production, quality, purchasing, documents and analytics, which made it harder to centralize customer and product information, avoid repetitive data entry and access reliable indicators in real time.
The stakes were to secure a feasible and well-planned ERP project, to confirm the budget and implementation approach, and to obtain a single, coherent system capable of delivering time savings, automation, centralized data and clear operational visibility across manufacturing, quality and logistics.
Their needs
A complete, integrated Odoo ERP for all business processes
The client needed a complete, integrated ERP solution to cover their entire range of business processes (general setup, accounting, master data, inventory management, contacts, sales, barcoding, purchasing, manufacturing, quality, PLM, document management, access rights, and business analytics), and chose Captivea for its ability to implement Odoo across this broad scope and cover the entire value chain within a single solution.
- Ensure one integrated ERP covering all core business processes from production to logistics and quality.
- Eliminate manual re-entry of data by automating transactions and centralizing customer and product information.
- Gain quick access to key indicators, real-time employee information and clear follow-up of validated or pending steps.
- Obtain reliable, centralized reporting and analytics to track productivity, expenses and sales performance.
The proposed solution
A structured Odoo ERP project starting with in-depth analysis
Captivea France initiated the project with a complete analysis of the client’s Odoo environment, conducting business discovery and themed workshops across teams to understand processes, confirm feasibility, budget and timeline, and define how Odoo ERP would support operations. The solution is based on Odoo with modules such as Inventory, Manufacturing, PLM, Purchase, Quality, Barcode, Accounting, Documents, Sales, Employees and Dashboard, enabling time savings, automation of transactions, centralized management of products and customers, simplified document handling and tailored reporting for EURL LABORATOIRE COFANE.
