Common pains

Why FM operations get chaotic across sites and contracts

Facility Management breaks down when tickets, technicians, parts, SLAs, approvals and billing sit in different tools. Odoo brings the entire flow into one system.

  • Reactive work dominates — PPM plans exist, but reactive tickets consume the team and hurt SLA performance.
  • Scheduling is manual — dispatching is chaotic, job details are missed, and repeat visits increase travel costs.
  • No clean job-to-invoice trail — time, materials and approvals are split across tools causing leakage and delays.
  • Parts & consumables lack control — stock-outs and emergency purchases delay jobs and inflate spend.
  • Compliance & reporting gaps — inconsistent checklists, photos, sign-offs, and weak reporting by site/contract/team.

Our approach

Discovery → Configure → Data → Go-live → Support

FM systems fail when implementation is rushed. We roll out in phases so operations stay stable and teams adopt it.

1) Discovery

Map contracts, SLAs, ticket types, work order flows, approvals, and reporting needs.

2) Configure

Set up modules, teams, roles, multi-site structure, checklists, and SLA rules.

3) Data

Migrate sites, assets, clients, parts, price rules, and any open tickets/work orders.

4) Go-live

Testing + training + controlled rollout (by team/site) and early SLA monitoring.

5) Support / AMC

Stabilise, optimise, automate reporting, and expand workflows as you scale.
