Components for Accurate BOM Management
Managing your Bills of Material Means Managing ChangeTo successfully manage change in today's complex environment, supply chain partners must be able to easily find and access product data.
Additionally, extensive process rules and data relationships must be in place to ensure "data integrity" as changes are analyzed and executed.
CMstat's projectized BOM software solution provides a Central Database of Authority giving your organization and its supply chain partners secure web-based access to product and project metadata, documents and drawings in support of the change review process.
CMstat's embedded Configuration Management Rules ensure the product data used for change analysis and execution is available, up to date and accurate. Centralizing the Change Process in the fully integrated CMstat Database of Authority provides many benefits for managing your Bills of Material, including:
- Electronic BOM creation allows for automatic BOM updates upon Change approval/incorporation.
- Secure easy access to all current and historical product information for Status
- Accounting, Impact Assessment, and Traceability and Audit.
- Ensure consistent data is sent to and received from External Systems, e.g. CAD, SCM, ERP/MRP, ILS, etc. in a timely manner.
- External systems users, e.g. ERP users, are not required to access multiple systems to find correct information.
- Efficient Part Management. In-depth search capability combined with real-time system updates ensures users have accurate and timely part information.
- Reduces ordering errors, duplication and down-time. It all boils down to reducing errors and rework, and increasing efficiency and profits.
