Detail

In this service, I provide customization & configuration only — I adjust and tailor Odoo modules to fit your construction business needs (no heavy bespoke coding or full application development). The configuration includes:

• Project & Task Management: Set up the Odoo Projects module to plan tasks, assign labour and subcontractors, manage milestones and dependencies, and track project progress in real time. zolute.consulting

• Procurement & Inventory Management: Configure Odoo Purchase and Inventory modules for procurement workflows — issuing RFPs / RFQs, vendor selection, approvals, purchase orders, and automated procurement. Manage warehouses, material stock, tools, and on-site inventory transfers to avoid wastage and delays. 

• On-site Stock & Equipment Control: Provide visibility of material usage on construction sites — track cement, steel, tools, equipment, and supplies across warehouses and sites. 

• Budgeting, Cost Control & Accounting: Configure Odoo Accounting and cost-center tracking per project to monitor expenses, vendor invoices, payments, and financial reporting — giving budget visibility and control.

• Field Service & Labour Management: Use Odoo Field Service and Timesheets / HR modules to manage labour hours, attendance, subcontractor work, productivity, and labour costs per project.

• Document Management & Compliance Workflows: Digitize contracts, drawings, safety inspections, approvals, checklists, and audit documentation — easy document storage and retrieval for compliance and stakeholder reporting. 

• Mobile Access for On-Site Teams: Enable on-site teams to update material usage, request supplies, log progress, and upload photos via Odoo mobile interface — real-time coordination between office and site.

If you are a construction company, infrastructure developer or contractor working on rebuilding or infrastructure growth — especially in regions like Misrata, Libya or similar emerging markets — managing projects, materials, labor, subcontractors, budgets, and compliance can be chaotic when using spreadsheets, emails or disconnected tools. I specialise in configuring and customizing Odoo ERP to organise and automate your construction operations: from project planning and procurement to on-site stock management, accounting, documentation, and real-time reporting. With this gig, I deliver a tailored Odoo configuration that aligns with your construction workflows, reducing delays and cost overruns, enhancing transparency, and enabling you to manage multiple projects smoothly under one unified platform.

Benefits

By using this service, your construction or infrastructure firm will:

• Move from spreadsheet-based chaos to an integrated system where project schedules, material procurement, site stock, labour, and finances are all unified — reducing errors, delays, and miscommunication.

• Gain real-time visibility into project progress, material consumption, costs, and labour utilization — enabling better planning, budgeting, and decision-making.

• Maintain tight control over procurement and inventory — reducing wastage, theft/loss, and cost overruns.

• Improve transparency and accountability for stakeholders (investors, government or clients) through proper documentation, compliance workflows and audit-ready records.

• Enable smooth coordination between office staff, procurement, warehouse and on-site teams — even across multiple sites or projects.

• Scale operations: manage multiple projects simultaneously without losing control, whether it’s housing, infrastructure, commercial or public works.

Our Experience

We (as a consulting and implementation partner) have experience working with construction and infrastructure firms in challenging markets such as Libya — particularly in cities like Misrata, Tripoli and Benghazi — implementing Odoo for rebuilding and infrastructure growth projects. We understand the complexities: fluctuating material costs, procurement delays, labour management issues, compliance and documentation needs, multi-site coordination, and stakeholders’ demand for transparency. With our domain knowledge and Odoo expertise, we apply industry best practices rather than generic ERP setups — ensuring that configuration aligns with construction workflows, procurement cycles, and project management requirements.

What We Provide

Upon engagement, you will receive:

• A fully configured Odoo instance tailored for your construction business (project management, procurement, inventory, accounting, HR, field operations, documentation).

• Defined workflows and user roles for procurement approvals, project tasks, site-stock management, labour logging, vendor management, and document control.

• Training for your team on how to use the configured modules (project managers, warehouse staff, site supervisors, accountants).

• Documentation of configurations, workflows, and user manuals to help you maintain and extend the system.

• Post-handover support for a defined period (as per agreement) to ensure smooth adoption and debugging.

If you are dealing with costly delays, material wastage, labour mismanagement or lack of visibility in your construction or infrastructure projects, this gig enables you to bring all operations under one organized, digital, audit-ready system using Odoo. I focus on configuration and customization only, providing a clean, scalable, and practical ERP foundation so your business can deliver projects on time, within budget, with transparency and efficiency. Let’s work together to build a robust operations backbone — so you can focus on construction and growth, not spreadsheets and chaos.
