Odoo ERP Implementation Enables Central Sign Supplies to Carry Forward Their Legacy Effortlessly
About
Central Sign Supplies is a 72-years-old wholesale sign supply business that began in the Heartland. The founder, Don Klatt, envisioned a business that offered the best wholesale sign supplies and the industry’s greatest customer service. The business went to new generations, but the commitment remains never unwaved. To continue providing the best in the digital era, the client decided to upgrade their systems and welcome the new technologies into their work environment. It is where they connected with Brainvire for an Odoo ERP system implementation.
Project Highlights
The client wanted a system to help them track and manage all the business processes and both B2B and B2C clients efficiently and effectively. Brainvire’s team implemented the Odoo ERP system to make the overall working processes smooth for the client. The implementation reduced manual activities and helped the client run business operations efficiently. Brainvire’s development team moved their existing website to the Odoo e-commerce website and ensured the system was well integrated with VOIP. They also implemented a Sales and Purchase module to enable supply chain management.
