Bill of Materials (BOM) Management

With all of your product information in one place, you can accurately manage your BOMs, ensuring that your company, your suppliers, and your contract manufacturers are building the right product with the right parts. This means fewer errors, less scrap and rework, higher quality, and better cost control.

Allows companies to accurately manage their BOMs and associated data throughout the lifecycle of the product — from design to production to end-of-life. Our customers experience the following benefits from using this to manage their bill of materials:

Improved Productivity
Improve engineering productivity and reduce change order cycle times with real-time, role-based BOM information access and complete product change history.

Decreased Product Costs
Estimate and analyze product and item costs early in the development cycle by capturing and aggregating prototype and production costs across all BOM levels.

Improved Quality
Eliminate costly design and manufacturing errors by providing controlled BOM visibility to all parties involved, including Engineering, Manufacturing, Operations, Quality, Purchasing, Sourcing, Suppliers, and Contract Manufacturers.

Centralized Bill of Materials
Manage complex, multi-level product structures and ensure information accuracy via a centralized bill of materials. View a side-by-side comparison of two separate BOMs and review redlined views to identify differences between any two revisions of the same assembly.

Complete bill of material specifications
Capture all critical BOM data in a centralized, revision-controlled product structure.

Bill of material attributes
Track attributes such as quantity, BOM notes and reference designators tied to the specific assembly. Use intelligent reference designator verification to match quantity and format.
