The context
From high‑performance growth to the need for a unified ERP backbone
Verus Engineering designs and distributes high‑performance aftermarket components, leveraging advanced engineering practices and motorsport experience to deliver parts that outperform factory counterparts.
Before the project, Verus Engineering was growing rapidly in the aftermarket automotive space and needed stronger support for their operations. Their processes for inventory, manufacturing, purchasing, projects, and sales were not yet fully unified in a single ERP system, limiting their ability to streamline day‑to‑day work and keep every team aligned.
The objective was to secure reliable, efficient operations from engineering through to delivery, with better control over inventory and purchasing, clear project and time tracking, and a solid foundation that could support future growth without adding unnecessary manual work.
Their needs
A unified Odoo ERP to streamline engineering, sales, and operations
Verus Engineering wanted to enhance operational efficiency by implementing a unified Odoo ERP system with Captivea as their partner, so that their core activities could run on a single, coherent platform.
- Be confident about the feasibility of consolidating their processes in Odoo.
- Ensure their business was fully understood before any implementation decisions were made.
- Confirm a realistic budget and a clear implementation plan for their Odoo ERP.
- Know the detailed execution approach and timeline for each step of the project.
The proposed solution
A complete analysis of the existing Odoo environment and a targeted optimisation plan
Captivea began the project with a complete analysis of Verus Engineering’s Odoo environment, running business discovery workshops by theme and user group, then creating and presenting detailed deliverable documents. This structured approach clarified feasibility, budget, scope, and timeline, and paved the way for a unified Odoo ERP covering inventory, manufacturing, purchasing, projects, sales, finance, marketing, and human resources, with automation to save time and improve productivity across the company.
The first step of this project is to perform a complete analysis of the client's Odoo environment.
