Implementation
Implementation done properly. The first time.
End-to-end Odoo roll-out, configured first, customised only when standard truly cannot. We map your processes onto the standard product, migrate your data cleanly, train your team properly, and hand the system back to you upgradeable.
Right for you if
- You are picking Odoo for the first time and want it set up in weeks, not quarters.
- You have outgrown spreadsheets, single-purpose tools, or a generic accounting package.
- You value an ERP your team owns, not one your partner owns on your behalf.
Not right for you if
- You want a partner who will write thousands of lines of custom code on day one. We will say no.
- You expect to be hands-off through go-live. Implementation is collaborative; we need your time.
Methodology
How a Implementation engagement actually runs.
6 phases. Every artefact written down, every decision logged, every handover documented.
-
01
Discovery
A short paid engagement to map your actual processes, not the ones you wish you had. We agree scope, modules, integrations, and the ground truth of your data.
-
02
Configuration
Standard Odoo modules switched on, configured to match your workflow. Roles, approval rules, chart of accounts, taxes, warehouses, products, BoMs, all set up in a sandbox you can break safely.
-
03
Data migration
Customers, suppliers, products, opening balances, open invoices, stock on hand, work-in-progress. Extracted, reconciled, validated against your source system, loaded once.
-
04
Training
End-users on what they do daily, administrators on the controls they own, your finance lead on closing periods. Recorded, written down, kept.
-
05
Go-live
A planned weekend, not a panic. Final delta migration, switchover, smoke-test, and a rollback plan we never need.
-
06
Hyper-care
Two weeks of sharp-end attention after go-live. The week your team finds the questions they did not know to ask.

Scope tiers
Three shapes of engagement.
Pick the shape closest to your situation. Final scope is set after a discovery call.
-
01
Starter
- Single company, single warehouse
- 3 modules or fewer
- 4 to 6 weeks
- Up to 10 trained users
-
02
Growth
- Multi-module across operations and finance
- Two integrations
- 6 to 10 weeks
- Dedicated project lead
-
03
Signature
- Multi-entity or multi-currency
- Custom modules where standard cannot
- 10 to 16 weeks
- Architecture review and post-launch retainer
Frequently asked
Questions about Implementation.
How long does a typical implementation actually take? +
4 to 6 weeks for a clean Starter scope (single company, three modules, ten users). 6 to 10 weeks for a Growth scope with integrations. 10 weeks plus for multi-entity, multi-currency, or heavy custom work. We never quote without a discovery call.
Do you work fixed-price or time-and-materials? +
Fixed-price for Starter and Growth scope, with a clearly defined statement of work. Time-and-materials only when scope cannot be fixed honestly, typically Signature scope. Either way you see the team, the cadence, and the burn-down. Quote happens after a discovery call.
What if our needs change mid-project? +
Change requests get a written impact assessment, a price, and a yes-or-no from you before they enter the build. We have shipped dozens of projects this way; the discipline is what keeps go-lives on schedule.
Who owns the configuration and any custom code at the end? +
You do. Configuration, code, documentation, training material, sandbox snapshots. Walk away from us at any time and the system keeps running. We will help any successor partner pick it up cleanly.
Can we run the old system in parallel before cutover? +
Yes. Two-week parallel running is standard for finance-heavy implementations; we reconcile both systems daily, you cut over when you are confident.
