The challenge
Entas works across Africa in energy advisory, gas project development (liquefied petroleum gas and natural gas) and energy market data and trading, focused on clean cooking, lower-carbon transport and electricity access. Its needs differ from a product distributor's:
Project-based work
Budgets, time and cost, milestones and billing linked to the project, not just the customer.
Trading and contracts
Buying and selling commodities or services: contracts, counterparties, currencies, settlement terms.
Several jurisdictions
Clients, suppliers and projects in different countries and currencies.
Market information
What the team collects and shares, in one clear home, not scattered files.
A small head office
Clean accounts, approvals and reporting for investors and partners.
What we implemented
For organisations like Entas we typically use Prometheus, our ERP built on ERPNext, connected to existing systems through system integration:
- Projects and tasks
- Accounting
- Sales
- Purchasing
- CRM
- Human resources
Results
We have not published measured outcomes for this engagement, and we do not add figures after the fact.
What this means for your organisation
Nigerian and West African energy consultancies, project developers, clean-technology firms and commodity traders share these needs:
Manage by project
Time, expenses, purchases and invoices linked to projects: profitability visible during the work.
Currencies built in
US dollar or other contracts against naira books, with exchange-rate handling.
Terms with transactions
Counterparty, pricing and settlement terms beside the invoices they produce.
Start small
Accounting, projects and CRM first; purchasing, inventory or trading as you grow.
