Background & Mission
For a long time, Boulemberg had been operating with different systems, without perfect integration and communication. With a new generation of the family joining the company, the timing was right to embark on a digital transformation project.
Challenges
The main challenge of the project was to make the CHACAL business software, essential to the chassis manufacturing process at Boulemberg, communicate with Odoo. In addition to CHACAL, Boulemberg uses other software, particularly for machine control on the production line.
The Odoo ERP implementation project was an opportunity for Boulemberg to rethink its internal processes and reorganise certain functions, particularly accounting and purchasing.
The solution
Thanks to the implementation of the Odoo system, Boulemberg has undergone a radical transformation of its operations.
The CRM module has enabled more fluid and structured customer management, promoting better customer relations and centralised communication.
Quotations and order forms are now generated automatically, reducing lead times and errors. Production orders are controlled directly from the central software, enabling real-time monitoring of the various production stations.
Accounting and billing have been seamlessly integrated, providing a clear view of the company's financial health.
Purchasing management is now centralised, enabling rigorous monitoring of receipts, stocks and suppliers.
These solutions, tailored to Boulemberg's specific needs, have not only optimised internal processes, but have also propelled the company towards new prospects for growth and productivity.
Project stages
Needs analysis & Audit
As a first step, we carried out an exhaustive audit to identify Boulemberg's specific needs.
Developing the connector with CHACAL
At the end of this audit, the connection between Odoo and a specific chassis manufacturing software (CHACAL) was identified as priority no. 1.
CRM & Opportunities
Thanks to Odoo, Boulemberg has optimised the tracking of requests and the organisation of visits, making the process smoother and more efficient.
Quoting & Invoicing
Our integration with CHACAL, their business software, has enabled us to produce quotations quickly and accurately, limiting the risk of errors and delays.
Accounting
The management of invoicing and deposits is now automated, allowing the Boulemberg team to concentrate on higher added-value tasks.
On-site service
Our solution facilitates the management of placement and after-sales service, guaranteeing an exceptional customer experience.
Supply management
The platform also enables efficient management of goods and construction materials, reducing lead times and costs.
Boulemberg and Odoo in the future...
Boulemberg's objective is to make maximum use of Odoo's capabilities and to continue with the implementation of various business management applications.
