How do I create and manage an accurate bom

Nearly all of the functional departments within industrial machinery and battery machine building companies will rely on the BOM to do their jobs. It is vital that companies support a collaborative BOM creation process and provide sound management of changes to the deliverable over time. Spreadsheets, screenshots, and emails cannot provide stakeholders a single source of truth. But taking a more progressive approach and investing in PLM solutions can help ensure everyone in the organization is working from the most accurate and up-to-date BOM.

• Modern PLM solutions can easily synchronize multiple sources of data to ensure the BOM includes information from all design domains.
• As the BOM is the basis for essential tasks across multiple downstream departments, it is important that stakeholders can easily access the most up-to-date version of the BOM. 
• With the right technological foundation, the BOM can easily keep track of the variability of products, providing key data on different options that will need to be manufactured.
• PLM solutions, including cloud-based SaaS options, help progressive organizations overcome many BOM creation and management challenges.
