Macroscoop and QBuild Software Enter Strategic Partnership for Integrated CAD/PLM and Odoo ERP Solutions in Manufacturing.
New partnership strengthens the integration
between CAD/PLM environments and Odoo ERP for manufacturing companies
Eindhoven, August 17,
2026 – We are proud to announce that we have entered
into an official partnership with QBuild Software, developer of the renowned
CAD-ERP and PLM-ERP integration solutions CADLink, PLMSync, and NestLink.
Through this partnership, we are expanding our service offering and enabling
Odoo users to seamlessly connect their engineering and production environments
with Odoo ERP.
Strategic added value for the manufacturing industry
At Macroscoop, we believe that ERP should be as easy as making a cup of coffee. That is our mission: to make business processes so simple, accessible, and intuitive that you no longer have to think about them.
However, many manufacturing companies still struggle with duplicate data entry between their CAD or PLM systems and their ERP platform. Design changes often need to be transferred manually into Bills of Materials (BOMs) within the ERP system, a process that is both time-consuming and prone to errors
With QBuild's CADLink, PLMSync, and NestLink, we help manufacturers solve this challenge in a structured and sustainable way.
- With CADLink, we provide direct and bi-directional integration between leading CAD systems, including SolidWorks, Autodesk Inventor, AutoCAD, Creo, Altium, and CATIA, and Odoo ERP. Engineers can compare, create, and update BOMs and item data directly in Odoo, including visual color-coding of changes and discrepancies.
- With PLMSync, we deliver the
same real-time, bi-directional integration between PDM/PLM systems and
Odoo ERP, ensuring that BOMs and documentation always remain synchronized
and up to date across both environments.
- With NestLink, we automate the creation and modification of nesting work orders and synchronize this information directly with Odoo ERP. This is particularly valuable for companies involved in sheet metal fabrication and nesting optimization.
Benefits for
Customers
Thanks to
this partnership, we can now support our customers throughout the complete
digitalization of their engineering-to-production processes within Odoo. The
result is fewer manual data entry, fewer errors, shorter lead times, and more
accurate, up-to-date item and BOM information across the entire organization,
from sales and engineering to purchasing and production.
"Our mission is to make ERP as easy as making a cup of coffee. With CADLink, PLMSync, and NestLink, we are taking another major step toward that goal," said Merel Overdevest, CEO of Macroscoop.
"Every day, we see how much time is lost and how many errors are caused by duplicate data entry between CAD/PLM systems and ERP. By enabling engineering and ERP to truly work together rather than operate side by side, we remove that barrier and make things significantly easier for our customers."
