Odoo implemented around how you actually operate. Designed and shipped for solar installers, not generic templates with solar installers swapped in.
Most solar installers are operating on sites or software stacks built three to five years ago for a different version of the buyer. Proposal and system-design tools don't talk to the CRM, so reps rebuild the same customer data three times per deal. The infrastructure decisions that compound are the ones made with the operator in the room, not the ones made in a vacuum.
Inparlor's ERP / Odoo Implementation engagement for solar installers reflects that. We implement ERP for SMB and mid-market companies, and for most of them our recommendation is Odoo. The deliverables below are scoped against the unit economics, avg install ticket of $20,000-$45,000.
Where most agencies treat solar installers as another vertical to learn on, we treat the vertical as the starting point. Long 60-120 day pipelines run on spreadsheets, so prospects go cold between design, financing, and install. We will tell you on the first call which of those constraints is binding and which is solvable inside the engagement.

Odoo ERP proposal turnaround
We bring Odoo live one module at a time, sales, then inventory, then accounting, so each goes in cleanly and the team absorbs it before the next. A big-bang cutover across every module at once is how ERP projects fail.
Customers, products, and open balances are migrated and then reconciled against the source, so the numbers in Odoo match the books on day one. We prove the data is right before anyone runs the business on it.
Odoo covers most of it; the rest we build as proper custom modules instead of forcing the business into a workflow that does not fit. The customizations upgrade cleanly rather than turning into a maintenance trap.
We train the people who use it daily and hand a designated admin the keys, documented configuration, and the knowledge to run it. You own the system after go-live, not a dependency on us for every change.
