The context

From long-established plastics manufacturer to integrated ERP backbone

Mountain States Plastics is a Colorado-based, family-owned manufacturer that has been producing, supplying and recycling plastic products for nearly 50 years, with a portfolio ranging from custom plastic bags and films to polyethylene tubing for diverse industrial sectors.

Before the project, Mountain States Plastics relied on fragmented tools and manual processes to manage production, inventory, purchasing and finance, making it difficult to track stock accurately, analyse data reliably and oversee global activity and financial performance in a consistent manner.

The stakes for Mountain States Plastics were to secure reliable inventory control, improve the management of their overall operations, and gain clear, real-time visibility into performance and finances so they could support long-term growth and maintain their reputation for quality and responsiveness.

Their needs

Automating operations and gaining real-time control over the business

To automate processes, optimise inventory control, enhance data analysis, improve global activity management, and ensure accurate financial oversight, Mountain States Plastics chose Captivea to implement Odoo ERP.

  • Automate key operational processes across production, inventory, purchasing, and finance.
  • Optimise inventory control to reduce discrepancies and improve stock reliability.
  • Enhance data analysis for better resource planning and decision-making.
  • Improve global activity management and ensure accurate financial oversight.

The proposed solution

A comprehensive Odoo ERP rollout, grounded in detailed business analysis

Captivea USA began by conducting a complete analysis of Mountain States Plastics’ Odoo environment, running themed business discovery workshops with different teams to understand their processes, confirm feasibility, define the project approach, timeline, and budget, and formalise everything in detailed deliverable documents. On this basis, Odoo ERP was deployed as an integrated solution, with modules for supply chain, finance, human resources, services, sales, collaboration, websites, and customisation, giving Mountain States Plastics automated stock tracking, centralised communication and documentation, streamlined quality and maintenance processes, simplified procurement, and real-time visibility into sales and operational performance.

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

Analysis objectives

  • To be reassured on the faisability
  • Show that we understood their business
