Odoo ERP · Construction & contracting
Odoo ERP for construction and contracting companies.
Each project in Odoo shows its budget, purchases, labour and billing in one place. You see overruns while you can still act, materials are tracked to each site, and progress invoices come straight from the project. Implemented from Dubai for contractors across the UAE and the GCC.
- Live budget per project
- Progress billing and retention
- Site hours from a phone

Questions
Odoo for construction and contracting, answered.
Every project we do is different.
Each project gets its own budget, tasks, purchases and billing plan, so Odoo follows how each job really runs.
We plan in Primavera or MS Project.
Keep them for scheduling if you like. Odoo handles the money side of each project: purchases, labour, subcontractors and billing.
Site staff won't use a system.
They only need the phone app to log hours and request materials. Supervisors can enter hours for their whole team.
Can Odoo handle BOQs?
Odoo covers estimates and budgets per project as standard. Detailed BOQ estimating is usually configured or built for your way of working, and we scope it with you after the demo.
Do you work with contractors outside the UAE?
Yes. We implement Odoo for contractors across the GCC: Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Qatar, Bahrain and Oman as well as the UAE. Configuration, data migration and most training run remotely from Dubai, and we come on site for workshops and go-live when the project needs it.
