Upon acknowledging these pain areas and plans of expansion, Al Huzaifa came to the conclusion they wouldn’t be able to achieve this with their current solutions. The company decided to research the market in search for an integrated ERP solution that would meet all their needs in one platform. Whilst researching, Al Huzaifa came across Advanced Global Technologies (AGT) - an Odoo partner and was instantly intrigued by what an efficient, flexible, and user-friendly Odoo backend system could offer with support from its dedicated helpdesk team whenever assistance and training are needed, ensuring all staff at Al Huzaifa get on board and decided to implement the solution with Odoo. For a fast evolving company such as Al Huzaifa, flexibility is of high importance. Al Huzaifa has found using Odoo and collaborating with trusted and committed partner, AGT, has provided a great flexibility which they were missing. This scalability facilitates Al Huzaifa’s growth program and Integration of their business units has quickened the time to execute strategy. The option to include custom code adds value as automating some of their characteristic and complex business processes has enabled Al Huzaifa to continue to bring the latest innovations into their business. By relying on Odoo to manage Al Huzaifa’s business operations, they’ve saved a lot of costs that would have otherwise been sunk on purchasing several different pieces of software as well as the attendant costs associated with trying to integrate all of them, train their employees on each separate system, manage their billing and deal with multiple security, server and maintenance costs. By using a cloud-hosted all-in-one solution that performs well, they have been able to achieve their objectives at a fraction of the cost. |

Odoo Manufacturing Helps manufacturers schedule, plan and process manufacturing orders. With the work center control panel, we put tablets on the shop floor to control work orders in real-time and allow workers to trigger maintenance operations, feedback loops, quality issues, etc. By creating quality control points, we set up quality checks that automatically trigger at specific points during production. The quality check is automatically created and assigned when the specified operation or work order has been reached. |
