Odoo · Finance · Automation · Integrations

I help businesses implement, customise and integrate Odoo, with a finance-first approach.

I'm Umar Shahzad, a Chartered Accountant Finalist and an Odoo techno functional consultant. I configure the ERP, build the modules it's missing, wire it to the systems around it, and make sure the numbers that come out the other end hold up.

How I help

What I help businesses do

Most of this work starts the same way: a business has outgrown the spreadsheets, or has Odoo but doesn't trust what it's telling them.

Why me

Three jobs that are usually three people

An ERP project normally needs an accountant, a business analyst and a developer, and most of the cost and most of the failures live in the gaps between them.

Finance
A CA finalist reads your accounts, not just your database.
Chart of accounts, controls, reconciliations and reporting set up so the numbers coming out of Odoo are ones you can sign off on, and an auditor can follow.
Functional
The process gets mapped before a single module is touched.
Most failed ERP projects are configuration built on a misunderstanding. I sit with how your business actually runs first, then make Odoo match it.
Technical
I write the code myself.
Custom modules, APIs and third-party integrations, built upgrade-safe, so there's no handoff gap between the person who understood the requirement and the person who builds it.
Who I work with

Small and mid-sized businesses that need the ERP to be right

Usually somewhere between "we're running this on Excel and it's breaking" and "we have Odoo but the accounts don't reconcile".

Multi-branch retail
Food service & QSR
Manufacturing & inventory
Distribution & trading

Tell me what's breaking.

A short description of the problem is enough to start. I'll tell you honestly whether Odoo is the right answer, and whether I'm the right person to build it.
