Start at the core.
An implementation is eight phases. A typical scope runs 8–14 weeks end to end; the ranges on each phase below show how far a larger or more complex one can stretch. Discovery comes first and ends with the whole timeline written down — every phase, every date, and what has to be true before each one closes. You should never have to ask where a project is.
Discovery
Documentation, user stories, working sessions and a verification visit. Ends with the full implementation timeline written down. Nothing is configured yet.
Architecture
Apps, data model, where the boundaries sit and what stays outside Odoo. Signed off in writing.
Configuration
The standard product set up against your process, reviewed with you fortnightly.
Custom work
The work configuration could not reach — usually more than clients expect, because the standard product only bends so far. Written as upgrade-safe modules.
Data & integrations
Records loaded, balances reconciled, external systems connected and tested under load.
User testing
Your team runs a real week's work on the staging copy. Their objections change the build.
Training & go-live
Role-by-role training, written handover, and someone from us on site or on call for the switch.
Support
The month after go-live is the one that matters. We don't hand over a system and disappear.
The ones you need, switched on in order.
Phasing beats a big bang. Most clients go live on three or four apps and add the rest once the first set is habit.
What we ask of you.
One decision-maker
Someone who can settle a process argument in the room. Implementations stall on unanswered questions, not on code.
The questionnaire, answered honestly
Filled in by the people who do the work rather than the person who owns the process on paper. Guesses and tidied answers cost more later than an awkward truth does now.
A day a week
Roughly, from the people who do the work. Mostly in discovery and testing, less in the middle.
Honest data
Whatever state your records are in. We would rather see the messy export than a tidied one.
