Commonwealth Fusion Systems

Commonwealth Fusion Systems (CFS), based in the United States, is a leader in the development of fusion energy technology. With a mission to revolutionize global energy by creating a commercially viable fusion power plant, CFS is working at the cutting edge of science and engineering. As its operations expanded, CFS needed a comprehensive ERP system to streamline various business functions and support its rapid growth.

CFS adopted Odoo in 2021 to manage critical operations, and its user base has since grown to over 600. To ensure smooth operations across different departments, they required significant customizations and third-party integrations to align Odoo with their specific needs.

As CFS’s operations grew, they faced several challenges:

The existing Odoo system needed optimization and customization to support key departments, including Purchase, Accounting, Manufacturing and Inventory.
They required seamless third-party integrations with external systems, such as banks and other manufacturing software, to ensure accurate financial reporting and efficient production workflows.
Legacy code from previous developers led to ineficiencies that affected system performance and user experience.
With over 600 users, maintaining the system’s performance and scaling it to meet future needs became increasingly important.

To meet these challenges, CFS needed a development partner who could:

Clean up and optimize legacy code
Implement necessary customizations and third-party integrations
Provide real-time support aligned with the US time zone

Deliver quick resolutions to technical issues, minimizing disruptions to critical operations.

TechUltra help CFS

Recognizing the organization’s challenges related to interoperability and limited customization options, we promptly recommended them Odoo.
