Business Problem

This сustomer has three companies that have divided zones of responsibilities: in the Netherlands (warehouse, sales, purchase, and support), in Poland (manufacturing, R&D, warehouse, purchase, support), and in Germany (sales and support).

1. eFarmer did not have a single system for all branches and locations - planning and managing was impossible;
2. All branches operated in their own way, leading to time loss and an impossibility to communicate efficiently between the branches and operations for making decisions;
3. There was no possibility to plan and report transparently in terms of locations, operations, plan production and sales, or purchases and inventory. There was no transparent reporting system for internal use or for investors.

Key Solution

We implemented Odoo Enterprise, covering key client business processes such as sales, accounting, manufacturing, inventory management, and purchasing. Odoo was integrated with other client tools (e.g., YouTrack, Bamboo, etc.) to enrich the reporting that we also built in Odoo. We also trained users on how to efficiently use the system in their daily operations. 

Result
