Yes. The Blast Top runs abrasive blasting, protective painting, powder coating and finishing across five units on ten Odoo V19 modules: CRM, Sales, Manufacturing, Inventory, Purchase, Accounting, HR and Payroll, Quality, Maintenance and Field Service. The job card, extended with coating-specific fields, is the record everything else attaches to.

A coating shop treats customer-owned steel rather than making its own products. Each job is its own manufacturing order carrying surface area, blast profile standard, paint system, required DFT, number of coats, customer PO and unit allocation, and the customer's material is tracked through the job without being valued as company stock.

All five facilities run on a single Odoo V19 instance with a warehouse per unit. Consumables are one product with five locations, inter-unit transfers are recorded stock moves, and each unit is a cost centre. That is also what makes centralised procurement and job-wise profitability possible.

Eight checkpoints: pre-blast surface inspection, post-blast profile verification, paint thickness (DFT), holiday testing, adhesion testing, third-party inspection management, digital QC reports and non-conformance tracking. Each sits on the work order operation it follows, so a job cannot move past a failed check unnoticed.

Every inspection result, the paint lot used, the third-party inspector's sign-off and the operator's hours are records on the job card. A traceability query that used to mean finding a folder is now a report on the job, available the moment the check is done.

Through multi-warehouse inventory with lot and batch tracking and reorder rules. Material is issued against the job's work orders, so consumption per job is known, the batch of paint on any job is recorded, and minimum levels trigger replenishment before a unit runs short.

Units raise purchase requisitions; purchasing runs RFQs, purchase orders and approvals centrally against approved vendor lists and blanket purchase orders. Goods receipt notes, purchase orders and vendor bills are three-way matched before payment, so what is paid for is what arrived.

Cranes and blasting equipment carry preventive maintenance schedules that generate work orders ahead of time. Breakdowns are logged as requests, assigned to technicians and closed with spare parts consumption recorded, and each asset accumulates its history and maintenance cost.

Yes. GST-compliant tax configuration, customer invoicing, vendor bills, receivables, payables and bank reconciliation run in Odoo Accounting, with e-invoicing readiness. Cost-centre accounting per unit and per job sits on the same ledger, which is what gives job-wise profitability.

Revenue from the invoice, consumables issued against the work orders, hours from attendance-driven payroll, maintenance and rework all land on the job's cost centre. The margin is read from the job card rather than reconstructed at month end, which makes the next quotation an informed one.

Employee master, attendance, shift management, payroll with PF and ESI compliance, certification tracking and skill records. Because attendance drives payroll and hours are booked to jobs, labour cost per job is current rather than estimated.
