Detail

We do only customization and configuration of Odoo ERP to suit steel production operations. We do not build new modules from scratch — we configure, adapt, customize settings and workflows in Odoo so it fits your process.

Here are the parts we configure:

• Bill of Materials (BoM) Setup & Routing
  Define BoMs for different steel products (e.g. sheets, rebar, structural steel) including multiple stages (melting, rolling, finishing). Set up routing to define every step in the production line.

• Production Scheduling & Work Orders
  Configure Odoo so you can plan production batches, assign work orders, track progress, and adjust schedules when delays happen.

• Inventory & Raw Material Management
  Manage raw materials (iron ore, coal, alloys, etc.), keep real-time inventory levels, automate reordering thresholds, handle multiple storage locations or yards.

• Quality Control (QC) & Inspection
  Set up QC checkpoints (e.g. after casting, after rolling, before finishing) in production workflows. Track quality measurements and record defects.

• Machine Maintenance & Downtime Tracking
  Configure preventive maintenance schedules, record breakdowns, track machine usage hours, plan repairs and spare parts.

• Costing & Cost Tracking
  Configure cost components (raw materials, labor, energy, machine wear & tear). Monitor actual vs planned cost per product batch.

• Warehouse & Logistics Integration
  Manage finished goods storage, packaging, dispatch. Integrate internal logistics movements (yard, storage, delivery).

• Reporting & Dashboard Configuration
  Create dashboards for production yield, scrap/waste, machine utilization, lead time, cost per ton, quality metrics, on-time delivery.

• User Roles & Access Control
  Define roles (production manager, quality inspector, inventory manager, maintenance staff), set permissions, controls.

• Localisation & Regulatory Compliance
  Configure any local reporting needs (e.g. local labor rules, safety & environment, local accounting or tax aspects relevant to Algeria or your country).

Steel production is complex. It involves many steps: sourcing raw materials, managing heavy machinery, tracking production batches, monitoring quality, handling maintenance, and managing shipping and inventory. In Annaba, Algeria, a steel company needed a strong ERP tool to make all these steps flow better and reduce waste, delays, and costs.

Our service offers custom configuration of Odoo ERP for steel manufacturing companies. We adapt Odoo to match heavy-industry workflows: from production scheduling, machine maintenance, quality checks, raw material stock, all the way to delivery and reporting. With the right setup, your steel plant can run smoother, with less manual work, more accurate data, and better control.

Benefits

• Improved Efficiency: By mapping your real steel plant workflow into Odoo, you reduce delays, miscommunication, and manual errors.

• Cost Savings: Less waste, better maintenance schedules, fewer breakdowns, better use of raw materials leads to lower cost per tonne.

• Better Visibility: Real-time insight into production, inventory, quality, and maintenance gives managers control to act faster.

• Higher Product Quality: QC checkpoints catch defects early, maintaining standards and reducing waste.

• Reduced Downtime: Maintenance planning helps avoid unexpected stoppages.

• Scalability: The system can grow as your plant adds capacity, new product lines, or more shifts.

Our Experience

We’ve worked with heavy-industry clients (steel, metal production, and related manufacturing) to adapt ERP systems like Odoo to their challenges. We have deep knowledge of configuring BoMs, routing, machine maintenance, QC, and costing. We understand the constraints of steel plants: large equipment, high energy usage, safety, regulatory demands, and realistic floor conditions. In the Annaba case, although details are proprietary, we analyze the industry pattern: how plants need to integrate production with quality, inventory, and maintenance for smoother operations.

What We Provide

• Workflow mapping: we study how your steel plant operates now.

• Configuration of Odoo modules: Manufacturing, Inventory, Quality, Maintenance, Costing, Accounting.

• Creation of BoMs, routing, work orders workflows.

• QC inspection points and defect tracking setup.

• Maintenance schedule configuration.

• Inventory / raw material stock threshold configuration.

• Dashboard/reporting setup to monitor key metrics.

• Role-based access control and user permission setup.

• Localisation settings (metrics, units, regulatory reports).

If you run a steel production facility and want to improve efficiency, reduce waste, and gain clear control over production, quality, inventory and maintenance, then our Custom Odoo ERP for Steel Production service is made for you. We handle the configuration. You get a system that fits your operations and helps your heavy industry run smarter.
