Odoo for NGOs and donor-funded projects.

We put NGOs and donor-funded programmes on Odoo. Grants, budgets, procurement, payroll and reporting in one audited system, built for organisations in Kenya and the region that report to more than one donor.

01What the system covers

Programmes and money, in one place.

Grant and donor accounting

Each grant is tracked with its own budget, currency and reporting period, and restricted funds stay restricted.

Funds

Budgets per project

Spending shows against budget lines as it happens, so overruns are visible early rather than at quarter-end.

Control

Procurement with approvals

Requests, quotes and purchase orders follow the approval chain your policy requires.

Procurement

Payroll and HR

Contracts, leave and Kenyan statutory payroll, in the same system as the projects people work on.

People

Donor reports

Reports by donor, project and period come straight from the ledger, in the format each donor asks for.

Reporting

Audit trail

Every entry shows who did what and when, with documents attached, so audit questions get answered quickly.

Compliance
02Who it is for, and why Odoo

Built for organisations that answer to donors.

Local NGOs, international programmes, foundations and CBOs running several grants at once, often with the accounts in QuickBooks, budgets in Excel and procurement handled over email.

We build it on Odoo so that accounting, projects, purchasing, HR and documents run on one platform and donor reports come from one set of numbers. We recommend Odoo Enterprise, and there is an optional monthly support plan after go-live.

Scope it on a call
01

Local NGOs and CBOs

Several small grants, one finance officer, and every donor wanting their own numbers.

02

International programmes

The country office works in the system day to day, and HQ receives reports in the structure they require.

03

Foundations

Own funds and donor funds side by side, each on its own terms.

04

Faith-based and education

Sponsorships, school fees and programmes kept in the same books without mixing them.

03Questions we get asked

NGOs on Odoo, answered.

Can each donor's money be reported separately?
Yes. Each grant is tracked separately, so a donor's report covers their funding only, and restricted funds cannot be used to cover shortfalls elsewhere.
Does it handle multiple currencies?
Yes. Grants in USD, EUR or GBP can run alongside KES spending, with exchange rates maintained in the system.
Can it enforce our procurement policy?
Yes. Your approval steps, limits and required documents are configured in the system, and purchases cannot bypass them.
We're a country office. Can HQ get what they need?
Yes. The office does its daily work in the system, and HQ receives the numbers in their required structure and on their schedule.
What about payroll and statutory deductions?
Yes, Kenyan payroll is included: PAYE, NSSF, SHIF and the Housing Levy, with payslips and returns produced from the same records that manage leave and contracts.
What happens after go-live?
We train your team and then support the system. There is an optional monthly support plan covering fixes, questions, small changes and upgrades, with a 24-hour weekday response. Without a plan, we still help when you call, and each request is quoted and billed on its own.
How do we start, and what does it cost?
It starts with a discovery call. After that you get a written scope and a fixed price. Licences and hosting are billed to your organisation directly.
