Odoo ERP Implementation Proposal
Prepared for: Logistics Care (Logcare.sa)
1. Introduction
Client: Logistics Care (Logcare.sa)
Prepared for: Morgan Bekhit
Date: May 6, 2025
This document outlines a preliminary proposal for the implementation of Odoo ERP specifically tailored for Logistics Care. We understand Logistics Care requires a robust solution to manage its warehousing, fulfillment, delivery, and e-commerce support services. This proposal presents two primary scenarios to address these needs, providing competitive rough estimates.
The objective is to provide a basis for further detailed discussion, leading to a crucial Discovery & Analysis phase to finalize scope and costing for Logistics Care.
2. Understanding Our Pricing: Man-Day Approach
Our implementation service estimates are based on "Man-Days" (Consultant-Days). One Man-Day represents a full day of work by one of our Odoo consultants.
Formula: Total Estimated Man-Days × Daily Consultant Rate = Total Estimated Service Cost.
For this proposal, we are using a competitive daily consultant rate of $300 USD per Man-Day.
The ranges provided reflect initial uncertainty. The Discovery Phase will refine these into a fixed quotation.
Note: These estimates cover implementation services only. Odoo Enterprise licensing and hosting costs are separate.
3. Scenario A: Custom Odoo Solution for Logistics Care (MVP)
This scenario involves building a dedicated Odoo system for Logistics Care. Functionalities will be developed from scratch, focusing on a Minimum Viable Product (MVP) based on your service profile ("عرض تقديم خدمات - لوجستيك كير 2025.pdf") for initial rollout, with future enhancements possible.
3.1 Core Odoo Setup & Project Management
- Single company Odoo configuration for Logistics Care.
- Setup of users, roles, basic chart of accounts.
- Project management, UAT coordination, and go-live support for this scope.
- Estimated Effort: 7-10 Man-Days
3.2 Logistics Care Core Functionality (MVP)
- Sales (Service Orders based on your service profile).
- Advanced Warehouse Management (Locations, Routing - MVP).
- Delivery Management (Courier Assignment, Tracking - MVP).
- Service Catalog & Pricing (Riyadh, KSA, International, COD, Weight, Storage, Processing fees with VAT).
- COD Management & Settlement.
- Basic Client Portal for partners.
- Accounting.
- Estimated Effort: 30-45 Man-Days
3.3 External Integrations (7 Platforms - Lean MVP)
- Integration with: Salia, Zid, Labah, InT, Mile, SMSA, Aramex.
- Very lean approach: Configuration of existing connectors where available (Zid, SMSA, Aramex); focused custom development for others, assuming simpler integration points for MVP.
- Estimated Effort: 23-38 Man-Days
Total Estimated Man-Days for Scenario A: 60 - 93 Man-Days
Estimated Service Cost for Scenario A (@ $300/Man-Day): $18,000 - $27,900 USD
This estimate assumes a lean MVP scope for all components. Complexities or features beyond this streamlined MVP would require additional effort, best identified during the Discovery Phase.
4. Scenario B: Logistics Care Odoo Integrated with Olivery.app
This scenario involves implementing a core Odoo system for Logistics Care, which will then integrate with the Olivery.app platform. This leverages Olivery.app's existing functionalities while providing Logistics Care with Odoo's backend capabilities for financial control and data management.
4.1 Core Odoo Setup & Project Management
- Single company Odoo configuration for Logistics Care.
- Setup of users, roles, basic chart of accounts.
- Project management for this scope.
- Estimated Effort: 5-7 Man-Days
4.2 Odoo Modules for Olivery.app Integration
- Sales (to manage billing for services potentially rendered via Olivery).
- Purchase (for internal supplies).
- Accounting (to consolidate financials and reconcile data from Olivery).
- Simplified Inventory (if high-level overview needed in Odoo).
- Estimated Effort: 2-3 Man-Days
4.3 Integration with Olivery.app
- Data mapping, API configuration/development, and testing for seamless data flow.
- Focus on synchronizing orders, customer data, shipment statuses, financial summaries.
- Estimated Effort: 10-30 Man-Days
Total Estimated Man-Days for Scenario B: 17 - 40 Man-Days
Estimated Service Cost for Scenario B (@ $300/Man-Day): $5,100 - $12,000 USD
Crucial Assumption: This estimate is heavily contingent on Olivery.app having robust, accessible APIs AND Olivery.app already handling all 7 external logistics integrations (Salia, Zid, etc.) effectively. If Logistics Care's Odoo instance needs to independently integrate with these 7 platforms, the cost would increase substantially.
5. Key Assumptions for Estimates
- Odoo Enterprise Edition will be used for Logistics Care.
- Estimates are for an MVP or phased approach for complex custom features.
- Standard Odoo functionalities will be leveraged extensively.
- For Scenario B: Assumes Olivery.app has well-documented APIs and handles the 7 sub-integrations.
- Data migration complexity is assumed to be low to moderate.
- Client-side project management and active participation are available.
6. Information Required for Detailed Proposal
A detailed, fixed-price proposal requires a Discovery Phase. Key information to explore includes:
- Confirmation of the preferred scenario for Logistics Care.
- For Scenario A (MVP): Precise definition of MVP features versus future enhancements.
- For Scenario B (Integration): Confirmation of Olivery.app's API capabilities and its handling of the 7 sub-integrations. Specific data points for sync.
- Detailed operational workflows and specific pain points for Logistics Care.
- Approximate number of Odoo users and their roles (for licensing).
- Data migration sources, volume, and complexity.
7. High-Level Project Approach for Logistics Care
- Paid Discovery & Analysis Phase (Crucial First Step): In-depth workshops to finalize scope, requirements for Logistics Care, and provide a fixed-price quotation. Estimated Effort: 5-8 Man-Days ($1,500 - $2,400 USD).
- Planning & Design
- Implementation & Customization
- Data Migration
- Testing & UAT
- Training
- Go-Live
- Post-Go-Live Support
8. Rough Investment Outline (Implementation Services for Logistics Care)
The following summarizes the estimated implementation service costs based on $300 USD per Man-Day. Odoo licensing and hosting are separate.
| Component | Estimated Man-Days | Estimated Service Cost (USD) |
|---|---|---|
| Paid Discovery & Analysis Phase | 5 - 8 | $1,500 - $2,400 |
| Scenario A: Custom Odoo Solution (MVP) | 60 - 93 | $18,000 - $27,900 |
| Scenario B: Odoo Integrated with Olivery.app | 17 - 40 | $5,100 - $12,000 |
These are preliminary estimates. The Discovery Phase is essential to provide a fixed-price quotation. The choice of scenario and validation of its underlying assumptions will significantly impact the final project cost.
9. Next Steps for Logistics Care
- Review this preliminary proposal.
- Schedule a follow-up meeting to discuss these scenarios, assumptions, and your preferences for Logistics Care.
- Strongly recommend proceeding with the paid Discovery & Analysis Phase.
10. Contact Information
We are committed to providing a solution that meets Logistics Care's needs and budget. We look forward to discussing this proposal further.
