Custom Odoo ERP for Steel Pipe & Tube Manufacturing | Sharjah Order-Based Production

Detail

Zl-bluedash

We do customization and configuration only — no generic templates. We tailor Odoo to your exact workflow in steel pipe & tube manufacturing. Here’s what we configure for you:

  • Routing & Work Centers Setup
    Define each production stage: e.g., cutting/slitting → welding → galvanizing/coating/finishing → testing. Assign each task to specific machines/work centers.

  • Order-Based Production Planning
    When a customer places an order, automatically generate the manufacturing orders. Ensure correct dimensions (pipe diameter, wall thickness, length), grade, and quantity.

  • BOMs (Bills of Materials) for Variants
    Support different pipe/tube variants (size, thickness, length). Set up BOMs that adapt to variant options.

  • Inventory & Batch Tracking
    Track raw material (coils, billets, sheets) by batch/lot / grade. Track finished goods too. Real-time stock movements, warehouse zones.

  • Quality Control Integration
    Set inspection points (e.g. after welding, before coating, final test). Record test results: weld strength, coating thickness, leak / pressure tests.

  • Job Costing & Performance Analytics
    Measure cost per order (labor, materials, overheads). Track machine/operator efficiency. Monitor wastage, scrap, and energy use.

  • Regulatory / Local Compliance
    Ensure invoicing, accounting, VAT, and traceability meet UAE (Sharjah) regulations – e.g., FTA, local standards. Audit trails for material origins and tests.

  • Dashboard & Reporting
    Real-time dashboards for production status, pending orders, material shortages, and delivery deadlines. Custom reports for management.

  • Support & Training
    Once configured, we help train your team, test workflows, and fix any configuration issues as you go live.

Making steel pipes and tubes is a tricky business. There are many steps: cutting or slitting raw metal, forming it, welding, coating, testing, managing the material stock, and then delivering the right order on time. If any part goes wrong, costs rise, delays happen, and quality suffers.

We offer a service to customize and configure Odoo ERP, especially for steel pipe & tube manufacturers, like the project done in Sharjah by Zolute. Our goal is to make your production routing clear, your inventory tracked well, and orders completed correctly and on time. You get better control over all stages of manufacturing, from raw coils to finished pipes, with sharp visibility and reduced waste.

Benefits

  • Better Order Accuracy: Orders get built right first time, according to specs.

  • Lower Material Waste: When you track batches and inspect at each stage, scrap drops.

  • Faster Deliveries: Because routing and production planning are automated.

  • Cost Visibility: Know exactly what each order cost (materials, labor, overhead). Helps pricing decisions.

  • Inventory Control: Know what raw stuff you have, where it is, what is pending. Avoid stockouts or overstock.

  • Compliance & Quality Assurance: Tests and traceability help maintain standards & satisfy audits.

  • Efficiency Gains: Machines and people get used better; less downtime; production flows smoother.


Our Experience

We have executed this kind of project before in Sharjah for a steel pipe & tube manufacturer (via Zolute). We understand:

  • the special demands of pipe/tube production (length variants, diameter, thickness, welding, coating, etc.) zolute.consulting

  • inventory management of heavy raw steel, batch tracking & location logistics in warehouses, and frequent order changes. zolute.consulting

  • quality control stages for coating, welds, and finish, plus accurate cost tracking. zolute.consulting

  • compliance with UAE VAT and audit requirements. zolute.consulting

Because of this, we are well-poised to customize Odoo ERP so it matches not just generic manufacturing, but steel pipe & tube type manufacturing with routing, variant BOMs, QC, and regulatory needs.


What We Provide

Here is exactly what you’ll get when you hire this service:

  1. Requirements gathering: we map out your production stages, work centers, variant types, QC checks.

  2. Routing configuration: setting up each work center / stage in Odoo.

  3. Variants & BOM setup: different sizes / thicknesses / finishes.

  4. Inventory module configuration with batch/lot tracking.

  5. Quality Control checkpoint setup.

  6. Order-based manufacturing workflow: from sales → manufacturing orders → finishing → delivery.

  7. Dashboard & management reporting templates.

  8. Accounting / invoicing / VAT compliance configuration.

  9. Training for your staff.

  10. Post-go-live support/tweaks for the initial period.

If you make steel pipes or tubes, you deserve software that matches your complexity. Our Odoo ERP customization and configuration for steel pipe & tube manufacturing will help you reduce waste, improve quality, and deliver reliably. We set up everything specific to your business: routing, inventory, QC, variant BOMs, compliance. You focus on your production – we make sure your ERP works cleanly.
