Introduction
In today’s global market, manufacturers face rising costs, strict compliance rules, and unpredictable demand. Companies in India, the Middle East, Europe, and the USA often struggle with outdated systems that separate production from finance, sales, and inventory.
Odoo ERP changes that. By connecting production planning, inventory, quality control, and finance in one platform, Odoo helps manufacturers cut waste, improve efficiency, and boost margins.
1. Smarter Production Planning
Manufacturers often lose money due to poor scheduling and bottlenecks.
With Odoo ERP:
- Create dynamic production schedules based on demand.
- Manage work orders and routing digitally.
- Prioritize urgent orders with real-time visibility.
Example:
An auto parts manufacturer in Pune, India, reduced idle machine time by 20% after adopting Odoo ERP for production scheduling.
2. Bill of Materials (BOM) & Product Lifecycle Management
Managing product structures is complex — especially with multiple variants.
Odoo ERP offers:
- Multi-level Bill of Materials (BOM).
- Version control for design and engineering changes.

- Digital tablets on shop floor for paperless manufacturing.
