Manufacturing Bill of Materials
From concept to customer:
A comprehensive plan for production
Any business looking to seamlessly carry manufactured products through from concept to customer is going to need an effective and accurate Manufacturing Bill of Materials (MBOM). It is this one information laden component of the manufacturing process that binds all the relevant departments, and serves as the instructional blueprint for each product.
Lagetronix offers full support for complex Bill of Materials manufacturing in the cloud and on-premise.
What is a manufacturing Bill of Materials?
An MBOM is essentially a meticulous set of instructions that contains a list of all the parts, items, assemblies and sub-assemblies necessary to build a complete product. It is essentially a product recipe, providing all of the details needed to make a finished product. Like a recipe, the more accurate and definitive the details, the better the finished product
Using an inaccurate or incomplete MBOM can result in very costly delays or can even bring the entire manufacturing chain to a complete standstill.
If your business uses thorough MBOMs and some kind of Material Requirements Planning, there is a much greater chance of across-the-board efficiency. More detail should equate to more control – an essential ingredient in manufacturing. From the timely and correct ordering of items and parts, to the efficient assembly and sub-assembly processes right through to the packaging and shipping of the final product, a thorough MBOM for every product is essential for streamlined operations.
