ERP Needs Analysis & Roadmap

Before writing any code, we map your business processes to Odoo's capabilities:
- Process audit: Document current workflows across sales, purchasing, inventory, accounting, manufacturing, and HR
- Gap analysis: Identify which Odoo apps cover your needs out of the box, which require configuration, and which need custom development
- Module selection: Choose the right combination of Odoo CE modules and OCA (Odoo Community Association) community modules
- Migration assessment: If migrating from another ERP (SAP, Microsoft Dynamics, Datev, Lexware), map data schemas and integration points
- Implementation roadmap: Phased rollout plan with milestones, dependencies, and go-live criteria
Deliverables: Business process document, module selection matrix, migration plan, phased rollout roadmap with timeline and budget estimates.

Why Odoo on Sovereign Infrastructure?
SAP costs €2,000+ per user per year. Microsoft Dynamics runs on Azure. Even Odoo's own cloud pushes your data to their infrastructure. We believe your ERP — the digital backbone of your business — should answer to you, not a cloud provider's terms of service.
Odoo CE on your own servers gives you:
- Full data ownership — No one can see, analyze, or monetize your business data
- Unlimited users — No per-seat licensing, no surprise bills as you grow
- Complete customization — AGPLv3 means you can modify every line of code
- No vendor lock-in — Your data is in PostgreSQL, exportable at any time
- GDPR compliance — Data stays in your jurisdiction, on your hardware
