Elsewedy Utilities: Technical Maintenance in One View

The implementation connects maintenance requests, service projects and inventory, replacing Excel as the main record for the delivered scope.

About the Client

Elsewedy Utilities is an operational arm of Elsewedy Electric working in utility distribution and integrated facility management. Its wider services include operation and maintenance of technical systems for large organizations. Archer Solutions' project addressed a focused part of that business: technical-maintenance requests, service projects, helpdesk activity and inventory across one company and multiple projects.

Business Challenges

  • Excel-based coordination made it difficult to keep maintenance requests, project activity and material records together.
  • Helpdesk requests needed a clear connection to the maintenance and project work undertaken in response.
  • Inventory needed to be visible alongside technical service activity rather than remaining in a separate spreadsheet view.
  • A multi-project service organization needed consistent status and work records across its technical teams.

ERP Solution Delivered

Archer Solutions implemented Odoo for Elsewedy Utilities' technical-maintenance operations, connecting helpdesk requests, maintenance work, projects and inventory in one environment. The delivered scope gives service teams a shared record of requests, work and materials across multiple projects. It moves the operational information previously coordinated in Excel into structured workflows. A request can be seen in the context of the service work it prompts, with project and stock information available to the teams handling that work. The request, work and material records remain distinguishable, so technical teams can review each assignment in its project context. This creates a more consistent operational view across multiple service projects while keeping the details of individual requests visible. The shared environment also preserves project distinctions, keeping materials and service activity connected to the work that generated them.

Implementation Approach

Between February and July 2024, the implementation brought the request-to-work record and its material context into Odoo. The scope was deliberately centred on technical maintenance, helpdesk, service projects and inventory rather than presenting a group-wide utility transformation.

01 Mapped the Excel-based request, project and material records within the technical-maintenance scope.
02 Structured helpdesk requests and maintenance work around the relevant service projects.
03 Connected inventory information with the technical work that required materials.
04 Validated the service workflow and completed the implementation in July 2024.

Results and Business Impact

Helpdesk requests, maintenance work and service projects are recorded in a shared Odoo environment.
Inventory is available within the same operational scope as technical service work.
The delivered work has a more consistent cross-project record than separate Excel trackers provided.
