The context
Structuring metal cutting operations with an integrated Odoo ERP
OXY SERVICE is a metal cutting specialist based in Saint-Pierre-de-Chandieu, providing oxy-fuel and plasma cutting services on steel and stainless steel, circular planing, welded assembly and the trading of filler metals for welding.
Before the project, OXY SERVICE relied on fragmented tools and manual processes to manage accounting, purchasing and day-to-day operations, which made it difficult to track orders, analyse financial performance and keep purchasing activities aligned with production needs.
The key objectives were to ensure reliable financial management, streamline purchasing and supplier relationships, and gain better real-time visibility into operations so the company could save time, reduce errors and support its future growth.
Their needs
Clear ERP requirements around accounting, purchasing and operations
To better manage its accounting, purchasing, and overall operations, Oxy Service turned to Captivea to implement the Odoo ERP solution, benefiting from Captivea’s expertise and support throughout the project.
- Have a robust, integrated system to handle accounting and financial reporting.
- Improve purchase management, from supplier orders to deliveries and expense tracking.
- Reduce manual entries and repetitive tasks across operations to save time and avoid errors.
- Be confident about feasibility, budget, approach and timeline before committing to the full ERP deployment.
The proposed solution
A complete Odoo analysis as the first step towards a reliable ERP rollout
Captivea began the project with a complete analysis of OXY SERVICE’s Odoo environment, combining business discovery and themed workshops by teams and domains to understand their metal cutting activities and management needs. This work led to detailed deliverables, presentation sessions and feedback handling, and defined the deployment of Odoo ERP with Accounting, Invoicing and Purchase to automate financial tasks, streamline supplier orders and improve operational visibility.
The first step of this project is to perform a complete analysis of the client's Odoo environment.
