Overview
Established in 1977, El Haggar Misr is one of Egypt's largest and oldest air compressor distribution companies. With over 15 years of partnership with top Italian compressor manufacturers, the company has grown into a multi-branch operation with nine sales departments offering more than 1,500 products. The need for a unified, cloud-based ERP solution became paramount as the company sought to streamline operations and improve data-driven decision-making.
The Challenge
El Haggar Misr previously relied on Excel sheets and various ERP systems that did not meet their expectations. The company needed a system that could integrate all departments, offer better analytics, and provide real-time insights to aid strategic decisions. A major challenge was ensuring all departments, each with its own processes, could effectively use the same system while maintaining ease of use and accessibility across multiple locations.
The Solution
TDS implemented Odoo ERP, customizing it to accommodate El Haggar’s diverse departmental needs. This included tailoring processes for the after-sales and direct operations teams, adding specific approval workflows, and creating complex reports for the accounting department. The cloud-based solution allowed employees to access the system from any location, and its user-friendly interface made it easier for staff to adopt the new system. TDS’s implementation also enabled a complete digital transformation, unifying reporting processes and aligning the operational structure across all departments.
The Impact
The customized Odoo ERP system provided El Haggar Misr with real-time insights and automated alerts, allowing the company to address issues proactively. Weekly and monthly reports enhanced decision-making, and the new system supported growth by increasing efficiency across departments. The ERP solution unified operations, improved data collection and analytics, and allowed for better strategic planning, helping El Haggar Misr continue its leadership in the air compressor industry.
