Key Challenges Faced
Fragmented & Disconnected Odoo Apps
Fevino, a growing solar manufacturing business, relies solely on the Sales and Contact modules of the Odoo ERP. Meanwhile, critical functions like Manufacturing, Purchase, Inventory, and Quality control operate manually.
Poor Inventory & Stock Management
The main challenge they were facing was not having a system to track stock or connect with their existing data. They lacked real-time visibility into inventory levels, movements, and the value of their stock. They could not follow materials from purchase, through manufacturing, to the point of sale. This made it hard to manage resources, plan production, and make informed business decisions.
End-user adoption barriers
People working in manufacturing and sales found it difficult to use ERP modules because there is no connectivity to maintain a proper product lifecycle, resulting in delays, inaccurate reporting, and a barrier to using ERP.
