✦ Odoo and ERP services
Most of my work is Odoo for businesses that make, store, move or resell physical goods. Each service below has its own page covering the problems it solves, scope, process, what I need from you and the evidence behind it. If you're unsure where to begin, start with consulting and business analysis.

? Frequently asked questions
Where should an Odoo project start?
With discovery: short workshops to map how orders, purchasing, stock, production and accounts work today, then a phased scope. It costs far less to settle requirements on paper than to reconfigure a live database.
Do you only work with Odoo?
Odoo is my main focus. I also bring Power BI reporting, experience on Microsoft Dynamics 365 projects, and Agile project management, which apply whichever ERP you run.
How long does an Odoo implementation take?
It depends on the scope, the state of your data and how quickly decisions are made. A focused first phase is much faster than a big-bang rollout. I give a timeline after discovery, not before.
Can our data be moved from our current system?
Yes. We decide what moves (usually master data, open documents, stock and opening balances), clean it, trial-load it into a test database and reconcile it before go-live.
Where are you based, and do you work remotely?
I'm based in Mohali, Punjab, near Chandigarh, and work at Master Software Solutions. Workshops, configuration reviews, testing and training run well over video calls.
Planning an Odoo project?
Tell me what you make or sell, how you run stock and orders today and what isn't working. I'll suggest a sensible first step.
