Odoo holds the business records. We assess the configuration, handoffs and specialist systems needed to keep this process reliable.

PRACTICAL AI

Useful assistance. Clear responsibility.

These are workflows we can assess with your team. The route may use available native Odoo features, an approved integration or scoped custom development. Version, hosting, data and permissions determine what is feasible.

Account-aware quotation drafts

Prepare a first quotation draft from the enquiry and approved product information.

Required context: Current product catalogue, account terms and accessible stock records.

Human review: A salesperson checks price, quantity, availability and delivery before sending.

Order and document intake

Extract requested items from an email or purchase order and flag uncertain matches.

Required context: Sample orders, product identifiers and agreed validation rules.

Human review: The order team resolves ambiguous products and confirms the order.

Service with order context

Prepare a response using the order history and approved service knowledge.

Required context: Accessible order status, returns policy and current support documentation.

Human review: Staff review exceptions, refunds and commitments; customer-facing automation is separately scoped.

Reorder and stock exception briefs

Summarize purchase patterns and stock exceptions for account or purchasing review.

Required context: Reliable sales history, stock movements and replenishment policy.

Human review: Managers choose purchasing or outreach actions; no automatic spend or unsupported forecast promises.

Prices, discounts, credit, refunds and purchasing commitments remain with authorized staff. Inventory accuracy and account permissions come before AI.

THE PRODUCT FOUNDATION

A familiar system, configured around the work.

This is an Odoo product example, not an NMG industry deployment. Your workflow may need different apps, settings or specialist connections.

IMPLEMENTATION AND CARE

Start with a clear scope.

Assess the setup

Review your Odoo version, hosting, apps, data quality, access and existing integrations. Choose one process and a responsible owner.

Pilot and train

Define approved knowledge and actions. Test representative cases, uncertain answers and human handoff. Train the team before activation.

Measure and maintain

Agree monitoring, usage limits, support ownership and change control. Review results and retain a fallback if the assistant or integration fails.

Agree separate costs for assessment, setup, Odoo licensing or hosting, external usage, and ongoing care. A discovery call does not activate an assistant or create a spending commitment.

MEASURE THE WORK

Choose a baseline before claiming improvement.

Time to prepare a reviewed quote

Order correction rate

Time to answer a customer

These are proposed measures, not customer results or guaranteed improvements. Agree definitions, record quality and the review period with your team.

QUESTIONS TO ASK

Before you choose a solution.

Yes, the discovery can focus on trade orders, product information and repeat accounts. This is a distribution workflow, separate from gym memberships or clinical care.

We start with the existing version, hosting, apps and integrations. Native configuration comes first when it meets the need; external or custom work is scoped separately.

We begin with drafts and review queues. Sending, price changes and purchases require a defined approval path and an explicitly approved implementation.

Bring us one workflow that needs attention.

Tell us how the process works today, which systems it uses and where the handoff breaks. We will help clarify the next step.
