NetSuite ERP
for Solar Energy

Solar energy companies across the Middle East are managing installation projects, equipment procurement, O&M contracts, and customer billing across systems that don’t connect. NetSuite ERP for Solar Energy Systems is built to run all of it from one platform.
Explore Case Studies
Most solar companies are tracking installation costs in spreadsheets, managing O&M service schedules separately from finance, and billing PPA customers without a system that ties revenue to the assets generating it. NetSuite implemented by Azdan is:

EPC Project Costing & Equipment Procurement

NetSuite ERP for Solar Energy Systems tracks every installation as a financial project — with BOQ management, equipment procurement (panels, inverters, batteries, cables), subcontractor costs, and real-time cost-vs-budget visibility from site survey through commissioning.
  • Project job costing — budget vs. actual from survey through commissioning
  • Equipment procurement — panels, inverters, batteries, and BOS materials with serial tracking
  • Subcontractor management — installation teams and electrical contractors with POs
  • Inventory management — equipment stock levels and warehouse-to-site allocation tracking
Who it’s for
Project managers and finance teams at solar EPC companies running multiple concurrent installations who need real-time cost visibility connected to procurement and AP.
Outcome
Every installation tracked as a financial job, every equipment cost accounted for, and no project overruns discovered after commissioning.

FAQ

Common Questions About Solar Energy ERP

We've implemented NetSuite across solar EPC companies and O&M operators managing installation projects, equipment procurement, and PPA billing across the Middle East — here's what project and finance leaders ask before committing.
Get to Know More
Can NetSuite track EPC installation costs against budget in real time across multiple concurrent solar projects?
Yes. Every equipment PO, subcontractor cost, and on-site expense is posted against the project budget inside NetSuite as it's committed — giving project managers and finance a live cost-vs-budget view before any project closes.
How does NetSuite manage equipment procurement — panels, inverters, batteries, and BOS materials — across multiple active installations?
Equipment POs are raised per project and linked to the specific installation job inside NetSuite — with serial number tracking from warehouse to site, and procurement cost posted to the project the moment a PO is approved.
Can NetSuite run O&M contract billing, preventive maintenance schedules, and reactive fault management from one platform?
Yes. O&M contracts, SLA terms, and billing cycles are managed inside NetSuite — with automated PM triggers per asset and season, fault work orders dispatched to field technicians, and service costs linked to each asset directly.
How does NetSuite handle PPA billing tied to actual energy generation and contract terms?
PPA invoices are generated inside NetSuite based on confirmed generation data and contracted rates — ensuring every customer invoice reflects actual output and contract terms without manual calculation or billing delays.
Can NetSuite track panel, inverter, and battery warranty status by serial number across the full installed asset base?
Yes. Equipment serial numbers are registered at installation inside NetSuite — with warranty terms, expiry dates, and claim history tracked per unit, so no warranty lapses unnoticed and every claim is filed on time.
Does NetSuite give finance a live view of project margin, O&M contract profitability, and recurring revenue in one dashboard?
Yes. NetSuite consolidates EPC project costs, O&M revenue, and recurring PPA billing in real time — giving finance a live view of margin per project type, customer, and revenue stream without manual reporting.
How long does implementation take for a solar company with EPC projects, O&M contracts, and PPA billing in scope?
A full solar energy implementation covering project costing, equipment procurement, O&M management, and billing typically runs 14 to 20 weeks — depending on project count, asset volume, and data migration scope.
How does Azdan migrate existing project records, equipment registers, O&M contracts, and open AR balances into NetSuite?
Azdan extracts and transforms all operational data — active project jobs, serial-tracked equipment records, O&M contract terms, and outstanding AR — validating everything before controlled loading into the live NetSuite environment.
Can active installations, O&M service schedules, and customer billing continue uninterrupted during the implementation?
Yes. Azdan phases the rollout to keep live projects, field operations, and billing cycles running throughout — with cutover scheduled during a low-activity window and dedicated hypercare support at go-live.
How does Azdan configure solar-specific workflows like milestone billing triggers, warranty claim escalation, and preventive maintenance automation?
All workflows are built natively using SuiteScript and SuiteFlow. Azdan maps every EPC, O&M, and billing requirement to existing NetSuite capabilities before any custom development is scoped or built.
How do project managers, field technicians, and finance teams get onboarded onto NetSuite across different working environments?
Azdan delivers role-specific training for project, O&M, field service, and finance teams separately — with mobile access configured for field technicians so adoption works on-site, not just in a training room.
What happens when a new project type, asset category, or operating entity needs to be added after go-live?
NetSuite scales within the same platform — new project structures, asset types, and entities are added without replatforming. Azdan manages all post-go-live expansions through a structured delivery process with a defined scope and timeline.
