Every manufacturing company has a CEO (Chief Excel Officer) to manage BOMs in Excel. So you probably know the difficulties you may face, using Excel: You always get and send the correct version of the BOM. The lack of ability to give the right people access to view or edit the BOM. Copy-pasting errors and the human factor when transferring data from one BOM to another. Complexity in creating multi-level BOMs. Lack of the ability to see who made what changes, and when. Attach the correct version of PDF and instructions to the BOM. Automatic transfer of CAD quantities to the BOM. Automatically calculate rollup cost across multi-level BOMs. These issues cause engineering and manufacturing delays and errors and increase costs. OpenBOM is specially designed to avoid all these common Excel issues during Part and BOM management.
