Accurate BOM management in automotive
Bring clarity to the complexity and complication of modern automotive manufacturing with a cloud-based PLM to handle your BOM management. Find out how in this eBook.
As vehicle technology continues to innovate, the process for designing and manufacturing these advanced vehicles continues to become more complex. This complexity is also seen in the bill of materials (BOM). Traditionally, the BOM evolves a bit based on little changes each team that relies on it makes to it. But as product complexity continues to grow, the real-time changes to the BOM are becoming more frequent and impactful for down-stream teams.
Download this eBook and learn why it’s time to consider a cloud-based software as a service (SaaS) product lifecycle management (PLM) solution for more modern and effective BOM management.
Current challenges in automotive BOM management
Engineering, manufacturing, procurement and service teams all need BOM to be managed effectively to do their jobs. Organizations are experiencing communication, organization and collaboration issues when relying on traditional BOM systems and processes to keep up with increasing product complexity, requirements and variability. Handling the current complexities with a document-based BOM just isn’t feasible anymore.
PLM solution to automotive BOM management questions
One critical area where a cloud-based SaaS PLM improves your BOM process is by automatically generating your BOM once you input your CAD model. Additionally, your BOM automatically updates when changes are made to your CAD model. No more miles-long email chains and folders stuffed with spreadsheets to keep records of updated BOM.
That is just the beginning of what a SaaS PLM solution can do to modernize your BOM process. Download this eBook to get the full story on how digitizing your BOM with revolutionize your automotive manufacturing.
