Case  Study  -­‐  GET  WorldWide  

•  The  Company  
–  GET  provides  customized  and  comprehensive  CNG  business  solu3ons  to  its  
customers  (government  bodies,  industrial  and  refueling  companies)  that  
include  innova3ve  system  design,  key  equipment  manufacturing,  technical  
support  and  management  consultancy.  

•  The  Challenge  
–  The  company  has  been  running  for  nearly  two  years  and  faced  its  first  
Accoun3ng  Audit  in  two  months.  
–  Previously,  no  ERP  or  any  IT  system  was  implemented.    
–  The  Client  wants  a  quick  implementa3on  that  could  organize  all  the  past  
documents  like  Sales  Order,  Purchase  Order,  Invoices,  General  Ledger  and  etc.    
–  Qualified  accoun3ng  report  like  Balance  Sheet,  Profit  and  Loss  and  Stock  
 
Valua3on  are  all  required  in  order  to  pass  the  Audit  Trial.

31
  
Case  Study  -­‐  GET  WorldWide  
•  The  Solu6on  
–  In  Phase  1  (one  month):  
–  Data  migra3on  including  products,  partners,  past  accoun3ng  entries,  chart  of  account  and  etc.  
–  Set  up  accoun3ng  (both  financial  accoun3ng  and  cost  accoun3ng)  
–  Configure  Sales,  Purchase,  Warehouse  
–  Past  transac3on  input  
–  Staff  training  
–  In  Phase  2  (one  month):  
–  Stock  valua3on  
–  Import  BOM  to  proceed  with  material  consump3on  
–  Receiving  goods  and  delivery  order  
–  Accoun3ng  adjustment  
–  Staff  training  and  bug  fixing  
•  The  Result  
–  The  Odoo  successfully  went  live  before  the  deadline  of  the  Accoun3ng  Audit.  The  client  finally  
submits  the  reports  generated  from  Odoo  to  the  Annual  Audi3ng  Process  and  Passed  Trial.  GET  has  
been  using  Odoo  for  two  years  and  OSCG  has  been  providing  support  &  maintenance  service  and    
implemented  project  management  and  Cost  Accoun3ng  (Analy3c  Accoun3ng)  aUer  the  first  
deployment.

Case  Study  -­‐  Tecway  Group  

•  The  Company  
–  Tecway  Interna3onal  has  been  successfully  iden3fying,  promo3ng  and  
distribu3ng  innova3ve,  high  quality  and  cost  effec3ve  solu3ons  to  the  Marine  
&  Offshore,  Oil  and  Gas  industries  within  China.  Tecway  Interna3onal  has  
offices  in  strategic  loca3ons  throughout  China.  This  allows  the  experienced  
sales  personnel  to  develop  strong  working  rela3onships  with  our  clients.  

•   The  Challenge  
–  To  cope  with  the  fast  growth  of  the  company,  the  company's  legacy  system  
(MicrosoU  Navision)  could  not  meet  the  management  needs.  The  company  
has  many  subsidiaries  and  it  encounters  the  biggest  challenge  of  switching  the  
ERP  system  to  the  brand  new  and  modern  OpenERP.  

33
  
Case  Study  -­‐  Tecway  Group  
•  The  Solu6on  
–  OSCG  worked  with  the  top  management  of  the  company  very  closely  and  
came  out  with  a  smooth  and  low  risk  methodology.  The  project  started  with  
the  rela3vely  new  subsidiary  as  the  first  ERP  system.  It  became  a  trial  and  
model  for  the  other  subsidiaries.  AUer  the  successful    launch  for  the  first  
subsidiary,  we  adopted  the  same  method  and  base  system  to  gradually  
replace  the  legacy  systems  in  the  other  companies.  
•  Highlights  of  the  system  
–  Brand  New  CRM  
•  Introduce  the  CRM  to  the  sales  team  of  the  Tecway  Group  
•  Allow  the  management  to  closely  monitor  and  trace  the  progresses  of  each  business  opportuni3es  and  
salesman  performance  

–  Profit  and  Loss  Analysis  

•  Implemented  the  mul3  dimensional  profit  and  loss  analysis  from  the  quota3on  stage  to  actual  financial  result  
•  Provide  the  rigorous  and  accurate  P  &  L  analysis  considering  all  business  situa3on  

–  All-­‐round  Func3ons  
•  CRM,  Sales,  Purchase,  Warehouse,  Accoun3ng,  Human  Resource  in  one  system  
•  Op3mized  efficiency  among  the  departments  
34
  
Case  Study  -­‐  Tecway  Group  
•  The  Result  
–  Compared  to  the  legacy  system  (MicrosoU  Navision)  that  Tecway  was  using  
for  years,  our  solu3on  (formerly  OpenERP)  is  more  completed,  integrated  and  
easier  to  deploy.  The  overall  cost  and  risk  were  maintained  in  a  very  low  level.  
The  management  was  glad  and  kept  replacing  the  systems  in  the  subsidiaries  
while  adding  more  func3ons  to  the  already  deployed  systems  thanks  to  the  
flexibility  of  our  system.    

35
  
Case  Study  –  Retail  Chain  +  POS  
•  The  Company  
–  Acme  Inc  (this  name  is  made  up  due  to  confiden3ality)  sells  mobile  phones  
and  accessories  over  more  than  80  retail  branches  all  over  the  South  East  Asia.  
The  management  of  the  company  is  based  in  Hong  Kong  though.  The  daily  
POS  orders  could  reach  5,000.  The  company  also  has  some  minor  wholesale  
and  trading  business  along  with  the  retail  business.    
•  The  Challenge  
–  The  company  was  running  OpenBravo  for  half  a  year  and  the  management  
decides  to  drop  it  due  to  the  performance  issues  as  well  as  the  other  
enterprise  processes  could  not  be  easily  achieved  by  OpenBravo.  The  huge  
data  input  every  day  becomes  one  of  the  bopleneck  that  Acme  Inc  needs  to  
conquer.  There  is  another  high  demanding  requirement  is  the  offline  
capability  of  the  system  as  the  3G  network  that  each  branches  are  using  is  
very  unstable  and  some3mes  could  be  out  for  days.  The  system  also  needs  to  
be  very  user-­‐friendly  and  easy  to  operate  by  the  branch  staff  by  using  Barcode  
Reader.  Moreover,  since  the  management  is  located  overseas,  a  very  strict  
cash  control  management  needs  to  be  implemented  to  guarantee  the  profit  of  
the  company  is  well  managed.  
36
  
Case  Study  -­‐  Retail  Chain  +  POS  
•  The  Solu6on  
–  The  implementa3on  was  conducted  in  two  Parts.  
–  In  Part  1  (two  months  for  POS  front  end):  
–         Point  of  Sales  interface  op3miza3on  
–         Offline  capability  op3miza3on  
–         Barcode  Reader  Integra3on  
–         Dot  Matrix  Print  for  invoices  integra3on  
–         Mul3ple  Point  of  Sales  and  Shops  set  up  
–         Cash  Management  Improvement  and  increase  the  user  control  
–  In  Part  2  (back  office):  
–         Stock  Management  
–         Sales  and  Stock  Reports  
–         Back  office  opera3ons  
–         Purchasing  Management  
–         Accoun3ng  Management  

37
  
Case  Study  -­‐  Retail  Chain  +  POS  
•  The  Result  
–  The  POS  front  end  was  deployed  less  than  two  months  aUer  the  start  of  the  project.  The  
front  end  is  now  accessed  from  all  the  branches  and  it  meets  all  the  requirement  of  the  
customer’s  expecta3on  on  a  good  point  of  sales  terminal.  There  is  only  one  netbook,  
one  standard  barcode  reader,  one  dot-­‐matrix  machine  and  one  3G  mobile  card  are  
needed  for  each  of  its  branch  to  do  all  its  work  everyday.  The  back  office  is  also  very  
happy  with  the  more  accurate  stock  level  and  the  cash  control  process.  Moreover,  the  
management  can  monitor  the  en3re  opera3ons  real-­‐3me  from  1000  km  away!

Case  Study  -­‐  Lenovo
•  The  Company  
–  Lenovo  Europe  sells  Lenovo  Brand  PCs,  Smartphones  and  Tablets  products  
–  For  years,  the  business  unit  lacked  of  a  good  Sales  Forecast  and  Planning  
System  

•  The  Challenge  
–  There  are  more  than  100  new  products  launched  each  month  
–  The  products  are  in  many  different  categories  and  the  lifecycle  is  short  
–  Cost  price  and  sales  price  of  hundreds  of  products  require  updates  each  
month  
–  Hundreds  of  Sales  Orders  and  Delivery  Orders  to  be  processed  each  day  

39
Case  Study  -­‐  Lenovo
