| OJM Electrics Company Limited | Electrical Retail & Installation | Mbezi Beach, Dar es Salaam | 3 Weeks |
The Challenge
OJM Electrics sells lighting products and electrical supplies, and offers installation services. Its daily business runs on the shop counter and the stockroom.
Before the project, the key gaps were:
- Counter sales and stock movements were not linked, so stock levels were hard to trust.
- Invoicing, supplier purchases and bank reconciliation were handled separately from sales.
- Leads and customer communication were not tracked in one place.
- The business had no website to show its products or capture enquiries.
The Solution
Digital Hut Africa delivered a fresh Odoo 19 Enterprise setup on Odoo Online, built around the shop.
- Point of Sale: works on multiple devices and offline, captures customer details, and updates stock and invoices automatically.
- Inventory: all electrical materials and equipment, real-time stock levels, serial and lot tracking, stock counts and valuation reports.
- Purchasing: supplier orders with goods received against them.
- Accounting: chart of accounts, VAT, bank and cash journals, automated invoicing and reconciliation.
- CRM & Sales: leads, opportunities and every customer conversation in one place.
- Website: a professional site with an FAQ, contact form, live chat and visitor analytics.
How We Delivered
- Initiation & Business Mapping (Week 1): workflow analysis, user roles and configuration blueprint.
- Inventory & Products (Weeks 1 to 2): product data, units, pricing, suppliers and opening stock.
