Glass Tile Manufacturer

Product Configurator

A glass tile manufacturer was managing their custom glass tile and meshing production through a complex spreadsheet system. An employee would pre-build products and BOMs, importing them into Odoo, eventually leading to over 500,000 SKUs. This process created unnecessary system complexity and made it challenging to respond quickly to custom orders. Additionally, the majority of these SKUs were combinations that may never be ordered. They were also using a legacy DOS-based system for accounting and payroll.

  • Established clear communication channels between stakeholders and development team
