Solution Overview
The CandidRoot Solar EPC Suite is a comprehensive, ready-to-use digital ecosystem designed specifically for solar installation companies. Traditional solar sales and installations involve disjointed processes from manual site surveys and offline ROI calculations to disconnected post-installation maintenance. This custom-engineered solution centralizes the entire lifecycle: remote lead qualification, AI-assisted roof mapping, automated ROI estimation, hardware fulfillment, and real-time IoT inverter monitoring.
Core Industry Challenges Addressed
Costly Physical Site Surveys
Sending technicians for initial roof measurements delays the quoting process and increases customer acquisition costs.
Inaccurate ROI Estimations
Manual calculation of system capacity and energy yield often leads to over-promising or pricing errors.
Disconnected Post-Sales Support
Once the system is installed, EPCs lack visibility into the inverter's performance, leading to reactive rather than proactive customer support.

The End-to-End Workflow & Features
The solution guides users seamlessly through a highly automated 4-phase workflow
CRM & Remote Site Surveying (The "Site Design Canvas")
- Unified Pipeline : Inquiries are captured in the CRM, tracking customer contact details and exact geolocation coordinates.
- Live Satellite Integration : Instead of a physical visit, the sales rep clicks "Fetch Satellite Image." The system pulls a real-time, high-resolution aerial view of the customer's property directly into Odoo.
- Interactive Roof Mapping : Users draw a polygon to define the exact roof area. By inputting panel dimensions and padding requirements, the system auto-populates the roof with the maximum number of solar panels that can fit perfectly within the defined space.
Automated Estimation & Quotation
- Real-Time ROI Calculation: Based on the mapped panel count, average sun hours, and local electricity rates, the system instantly calculates the System Capacity (kW), expected Daily/Monthly/Yearly Energy Generation, and projected Financial Savings.
- Dynamic Component Selection: The rep selects the necessary hardware (Inverter, Batteries, AC Wire, Earthing Kits). With a single click, all mapped components and calculated estimates are converted into a formal Sales Order and Quotation.
Project Execution & Fulfillment
- Automated Logistics: Confirming the Sales Order automatically generates a Delivery Challan for dispatching the hardware to the customer's location.
- Installation Project Tracking: A dedicated Project is instantly created, assigning installation tasks to the technical team to manage the physical deployment of the panels.
IoT Inverter Telemetry & Proactive Helpdesk
- Live Data Sync : Post-installation, the customer's physical Inverter is mapped in the system. Using API integration, Odoo fetches real-time telemetry data (Current Power, Daily Yield, Total Yield, Grid Voltage).
- Automated Proactive Support : The system constantly monitors the data feed for manufacturer 'Alarm Codes'. If an error (e.g., Alarm Code 1) is detected, Odoo instantly auto-generates a Support Ticket. The technical team can dispatch a technician or contact the customer to resolve the fault before the customer even realizes their power generation has dropped.
Business Impact & Value Delivered
Accelerated Sales Cycle
Remote satellite mapping allows sales teams to provide highly accurate, visually impressive quotes within minutes, without leaving the office.
Zero-Leakage Inventory
Direct integration from the Site Canvas to the Sales Order ensures no installation components (wires, mounts, batteries) are forgotten in the quote.
Unmatched Customer Experience
The proactive Helpdesk transforms maintenance. Calling a customer to fix a fault they haven't noticed yet builds massive brand trust and justifies premium AMC (Annual Maintenance Contract) pricing.
Turnkey Scalability
Being a ready-to-use vertical, Solar EPCs can deploy this system rapidly and scale their operations globally without building custom software from scratch.
