🎧 Welcome to another exciting episode of the Digital Supply Chain podcast! In today's episode I'm chatting to  Nick Foy, Founder, CEO, and Chief Evangelist of Silverdale Technology. Get ready to dive into the world of Odoo ERP and discover how it can revolutionize your business operations.

In this episode, Nick shares how Odoo can transform your business by consolidating all your data and processes into one unified system. From managing contacts to tracking sales, inventory, and more, Odoo offers a seamless progression that adapts to your company's evolving needs.

Nick also emphasizes the importance of starting your ERP journey early. Whether you're a small company or a rapidly growing enterprise, implementing Odoo can bring significant benefits. By centralizing your data and workflows, you gain a holistic view of your customers, projects, and finances. Imagine answering client calls with instant access to their entire history, from meetings to invoices, without switching between multiple systems.

But what about customization? Nick cautions against excessive customization, as it can lead to future complications and high support costs. Instead, he highlights the value of leveraging standard processes and extensions to maintain flexibility and simplify system upgrades. Nick shares an inspiring success story of how Silverdale reduced a client's custom code by a whopping 74%, significantly lowering their support costs and increasing system efficiency.

We also discuss the future of ERP systems and the integration of ChatGPT. Nick reveals how Silverdale is utilizing AI-powered chatbots to enhance customer support, streamline coding, and drive predictability and scalability.
