Energy & Utilities Industry
Companies in the energy and utilities sector, particularly those in the growing renewables market, are increasingly turning to Odoo to manage their operations in Australia. These businesses often need to manage a combination of inventory for equipment, project management for installations or infrastructure work, and sales for business to business contracts or retail customers.
Odoo is especially valuable for distributors of renewable energy equipment who require an integrated and responsive system. By using Odoo’s Sales, Inventory, Purchase, Manufacturing and Accounting apps within a single cloud platform, teams can monitor stock levels of items such as solar panels and batteries in real time and automatically trigger purchase orders when minimum thresholds are reached. This improves coordination between local operations and international suppliers, while mobile access allows field sales staff to check stock and create quotes while visiting clients. The result is better efficiency, reduced administrative burden and stronger customer service.
