Custom equipment manufacturers live in the gap between "we sell a catalog product" and "we sell a one-off engineered machine." Every order carries its own drawings, its own bill of materials that evolves during design, its own procurement of long-lead castings and controls, and its own margin that only becomes real once the last field-service hour is booked. Odoo's native Manufacturing and Sales modules assume a repeatable product with a stable BoM and a routing you defined once. When each quotation is effectively a new product, teams end up running the real job in spreadsheets alongside Odoo — revision-controlled BoMs in Excel, project margins in a separate workbook, and a sales order that never reflects what was actually engineered. That is exactly where the standard apps run out of road.

Custom Industrial Equipment is an Odoo industry template that ECOSIRE builds for your shop. Technically it is a set of cohesive modules with their own __manifest__.py declaring dependencies on sale, mrp, project, stock, and — where you run Enterprise — mrp_plm and sale_project. We extend sale.order and sale.order.line to carry an engineered-configuration reference, wire mrp.production and mrp.bom to support per-order engineering BoMs with revision tracking, and introduce project-linked job costing so materials, subcontracting, and timesheet labour roll up against each machine's budget. New models such as x_equipment.job and x_equipment.spec are defined with models.Model, typed fields, and @api.depends compute methods that keep quoted cost, committed cost, and actual cost live on every job.

The workflow is built around how engineer-to-order actually flows. A quotation becomes a job; the job spawns an engineering BoM that your designers revise until release; released BoMs drive mrp.production orders and purchase requisitions for long-lead items; and every stage is governed by automated actions (base.automation) that raise the next task, notify the buyer, or flag a margin slip. Access is locked down with ir.model.access.csv plus record rules so engineering, procurement, and shop-floor roles see only their slice, and QWeb reports produce your branded quotation, BoM release sheet, and job cost summary. Everything is exposed over the standard XML-RPC/JSON-RPC API so a CAD/PLM system or a customer portal can read specs and push revisions programmatically. We build against Odoo 17.0, 18.0, or 19.0 and target your edition — Community where the free stack suffices, Enterprise where PLM engineering-change orders, MRP subcontracting, and field-service integration add real value.

Because this is build-to-order, nothing ships until we have agreed your scope. A short scoping call defines your job lifecycle, roles, reports, and any integrations; we then build on a staging instance, run UAT with your team, and hand over installable source, documentation, and a git repository. Typical delivery is 2–4 weeks from confirmed scope, depending on complexity. Pricing starts from $349 (indicative, single-company base scope); multi-company operations, deeper CAD/PLM integration, ERP-to-shop-floor data migration, and additional localization increase the quoted scope. You receive a fixed quote after the scoping call — never a surprise.
