Implement Odoo Enterprise in a Multi-company Environment

Creative Media, a group of companies focused on web content and advertising campaigns, faced challenges while implementing Odoo in a multi-company setup. I stepped in and expedited their progress, helping them achieve their targets within weeks instead of months. Through my expertise in Odoo implementation and customization, I provided strategic guidance, streamlined their processes, and ensured smooth operations across their multiple entities. By leveraging my knowledge and experience, I enabled Creative Media to maximize the potential of Odoo, accelerating their growth and delivering tangible results in a remarkably short timeframe.

An Odoo-based application for the staff, teachers, and students of the "Conservatoire Royal de Liège." It allows management of the studies and resource planning such as locals and material. The application has many custom modules with both back-end and front-end customization.

Team Management in Angular

A construction company needed a simple yet powerful tool to manage its team schedules. The tools allow managers to manage teams and team participants with constraints on their skills and availability. It also enables the company manager to better anticipate the project schedule and is available to all company staff. A link to their project management software and ERP reduced the encoding effort.

Asset Management Valuation and Risk Reporting

I set up a complete report generation process using the SAP BO platform that generates more than 100 reports, in three languages, within three days following the end of the period. The project includes managing the data warehouse schema with slow-changing dimensions and multiple history to keep track of all changes to the data. Data sources included the internal DB, accounting software, and Bloomberg Datasource.
