Odoo for Construction in Calgary

Job costing, project tracking, subcontractor billing — one Odoo platform for Calgary contractors and Alberta trades businesses.

Stop reconciling four spreadsheets and a project-management tool. Solvync deploys Odoo ERP for Calgary construction firms so your foreman, your bookkeeper, and your project manager all see the same numbers in real time.

What’s slowing down Construction & Trades in Calgary today

Five problems we hear in every discovery call — and how Odoo fixes them.

Job costs hidden in spreadsheets

Material receipts in one folder, labor hours in another, change orders on paper. By the time you reconcile, the project is over and the margin is gone.

Subcontractor invoices lost

Subs send invoices to email or text. Half get paid late, the other half get paid twice. WCB compliance is a manual quarterly fire drill.

Field-to-office data lag

Foreman calls in numbers at end of day. Office types them into QuickBooks the next morning. By the time you spot a problem, it’s 48 hours old.

Change orders kill margin

No clear chain of approval, no real-time impact on bid vs. actual. Owner asks for a change, crew does the work, the office bills 40 days late at the original price.

Equipment downtime invisible

No system tracking which excavator is on which jobsite, when it was last serviced, or how much idle time you’re paying for.

The Odoo modules Construction & Trades firms actually use

Frequently asked questions

Can Odoo handle WCB Alberta clearance certificates?
Yes. We configure Odoo Accounting to track WCB account numbers per subcontractor, generate clearance reports each quarter, and flag missing/expired certificates before payment runs.
How does Odoo job-cost compare to Sage 100 Contractor or Foundation?
Sage and Foundation are construction-specific but locked-in. Odoo is open-platform — you get job costing AND accounting AND CRM AND inventory in one system, typically at 30-50% lower total cost over 3 years. The trade-off: Odoo needs configuration during implementation; Sage comes preconfigured for trades. Solvync handles the configuration.
Will my Calgary foreman actually use it on a jobsite?
Yes — Odoo has a native mobile app for iOS and Android. Foremen can clock crews in/out, log materials used, attach photos to a project, and submit change orders without ever opening a laptop. Our training includes a 1-hour foreman onboarding.
Can it handle multi-location jobsites across Alberta?
Yes. Odoo Project + Inventory tracks multi-jobsite operations natively. Each Calgary, Edmonton, Red Deer, or Fort McMurray site has its own location record, its own budget, its own crew assignment, and rolls up to one company P&L.
How long to migrate from QuickBooks Contractor?
Typical Calgary construction migration is 8-12 weeks. We start with a 30-minute audit, scope the data migration (jobs, GL history, vendor list, WCB records), build the Odoo configuration in parallel, run two weeks of parallel testing, and cut over on a quiet weekend.
What does it cost for a 15-person Alberta construction firm?
Typical implementation: $25,000-$45,000 one-time, plus Odoo licensing of about CA$5,000-$10,000/year for 15 users. Our 90-day go-live commitment is fixed-price after the Scope phase.
