From spreadsheets to real-time manufacturing.

Dom Mira manufactures world-class textile products for global brands like Decathlon. Yet their production floor was still managed with spreadsheets and gut feeling. Three months later, Carlos runs his factory in real time.

The starting point

Where Dom Mira stood,
The solution.

The challenge

A world-class factory running on gut feeling.

  • Production planning fragmented across Excel files, with no visibility on real capacity.
  • Stock levels updated manually, frequent shortages and over-orders for raw materials.
  • Decathlon's tight lead-time requirements colliding with reactive scheduling.
  • No barcode traceability, manual stock counts each weekend.
The solution

A unified Odoo backbone, deployed in three months.

  • End-to-end Sales → MRP → Inventory → Purchase pipeline, fully connected.
  • Barcode traceability across raw materials, work-in-progress and finished goods.
  • Real-time MRP scheduling with capacity planning visible to the entire shop floor.
  • Live KPI dashboards on factory tablets, replacing the Monday-morning spreadsheet ritual.
The build

How the new flow works.

1
Order intake

Customer order → Sales pipeline

Decathlon's purchase orders flow into Odoo Sales. Each line is automatically broken down into bill-of-materials components by the configured product structure.

Planning

MRP scheduling on real capacity

The MRP engine schedules work orders across machines and shifts, accounting for live capacity, lead times and existing commitments. Bottlenecks surface before they hurt.

Procurement

Auto-replenishment of raw materials

Reorder rules trigger purchase orders when stock falls below safety thresholds with supplier lead times factored in. No more weekend stockouts.

Shop floor

Barcode-driven traceability

Every reception, transfer and production move is scanned. Stock levels update live, and operators see their next operation on tablets, no paper, no Excel.

Visibility

Live KPI dashboards everywhere

Carlos and his foremen see throughput, on-time-delivery and defect rates on tablets mounted in each workshop. Decisions move from weekly to hourly.
