BILL OF MATERIALS (BOM) SOLUTION

Enterprise BOM management software

Meet exponentially growing product requirements using a single source of product information. Adopt a collaborative BOM creation process that is easily accessible, visible and effective to streamline product management.

Why use enterprise BOM management software?

Product requirements are becoming increasingly complex as customers demand more personalized and sustainable products. At the same time, manufacturers are still expected to deliver products quickly, cost-effectively and at premium quality. Addressing these challenges requires a single source of product information which contains all product data, relationships and variant definitions between data elements.

Enterprise BOM management solutions establish a digital thread backbone for an organization. They are the key enabler for cross-domain collaboration, providing context and traceability to stakeholders across the entire product lifecycle.

Key Statistics

21%
of companies have products with 30,000 to 1,000,000 parts, and their product complexity is increasing.

65%
of companies report that they manage a unique BOM for each product variant.

46%
of companies claim that using multiple BOM systems hinders their business and makes adding or updating variants difficult.

How can you improve team collaboration, streamline processes and easily connect tools and data to deliver complex, customized multi-domain products faster and more cost-effectively?

Implement an enterprise BOM management solution. Integrate all product lifecycle information in a unified environment by linking end-to-end processes, systems and data from design, engineering, manufacturing and service domains.

What can enterprise BOM management software do for you?

An enterprise BOM management solution transforms the development and management processes of products and variants. Spanning the entire product lifecycle, it leverages digital threads that connect functional disciplines, simplifies reuse and manages productivity and change.

Unify

Establish a digital thread backbone to unify all product information and data elements in a single environment and support seamless BOM management across the organization.

Collaborate

Connect all stakeholders with a digital thread to improve cross-domain collaboration, coordinate the evolution of new products and confidently navigate related complexities.

Enable

Enable a comprehensive digital twin of the product to support design. Simulate products and processes with ease and flexibility before the launch.

Integrate

Harmonize domain BOMs within an integrated enterprise BOM to enhance visibility and traceability throughout the product development and lifecycle management processes.

Increase BOM management visibility

Author, manage and release your BOM in an integrated, unified process to create a digital representation of your product. Connect your enterprise with a multi-domain engineering BOM (EBOM). Take control with change and configuration management — all using product lifecycle management (PLM) software.

Frequently asked questions

What is BOM management software?

An enterprise BOM management solution represents a single product information source. It contains all the product information, relationships and variant definitions between data elements needed to support the perspectives of different domains across the product lifecycle. It establishes a digital thread backbone for the organization, allowing your teams to gain better control over requirements, efficiently manage data across various BOMs and precisely track different configurations.

What is an enterprise BOM approach?

With the enterprise BOM approach or a " multi-view BOM approach," a consolidated information resource contains all information and maintains all relationships among data elements needed to support engineering, manufacturing and service domains. This capability is built on a PLM-enabled digital thread spanning the extended enterprise.
