ERP for Construction & Contracting Companies
Odoo ERP for contractors: project costing, site purchasing, subcontractors, equipment and progress billing. Official Odoo Ready Partner.
Construction companies win or lose money on cost control. Materials, labour, subcontractors and equipment are spread across sites, and by the time accounts catch up the project is already over budget. Odoo ties purchasing, site stores, timesheets, subcontractor bills and invoicing to each project, so you see budget against actual cost while the job is still running.
Common challenges in construction & contracting
Costs known too late
Material and labour costs per project are only known at month-end.
Site stock leakage
Materials sent to sites are not tracked, so losses go unnoticed.
Subcontractor billing
Subcontractor work and retentions are tracked in spreadsheets.
Progress billing
Milestone and progress invoices are prepared manually.
