Best Practices: How US Companies Use Odoo Successfully
RCI
RCI is a project provider that designs and delivers custom-made amusement park rides and scaffold systems worldwide. To efficiently manage their complex operations - from customer inquiries to production, inventory, accounting, and project management - they chose Odoo as their all-in-one ERP solution. The implementation began in the United States, with additional international branches planned.
All processes and data are now unified in a single system, eliminating data silos, increasing data security, and significantly reducing license costs by eliminating the need for multiple separate tools.
Lockdowel
Furniture technology specialist Lockdowel has been using Odoo since version 10. Due to unsatisfactory support from their previous implementation partner and an overload of Studio customizations, the system had become increasingly inefficient. With the upgrade to version 18 and a return to standard Odoo features, we helped Lockdowel improve performance and reduce complexity.
The move to the latest version and the renewed focus on standard functions have improved system stability, enhanced usability, and simplified internal workflows.
BMAX
BMAX USA is part of an international group working with our partner Falinwa to unify its global processes. In the U.S., the focus is on optimizing manufacturing operations with Odoo - including cross-site rollouts and customizable approval processes.
By introducing standardized workflows in Odoo, international collaboration has been strengthened, and the U.S. manufacturing site benefits from more efficient processes and increased scalability.
