Visiprise BOMM, part of the Visiprise Manufacturing Planning solution, enables manufacturing accountability and improves production efficiency by managing the reconciliation of part content between Engineering Bill of Material (EBOM), manufacturing bill of material (MBOM) and as-built bill of material (ABOM) views. Visiprise BOMM also helps users define, control and navigate a multi-level product structure to generate accurate material requirement plans.

Visiprise BOMM allows manufacturing engineers to structure the BOM and at the same time identify where assembly, fabrication, etc. process plans will be required. Visiprise BOMM can use a drawing-based or a part-based EBOM as the baseline configuration from which the MBOM is developed. The result: Real-time visibility of the part and process structure in one unique view, that helps manufacturing engineers decide and define how a product will be brought together during its manufacture, or disassembled and reassembled during modification and maintenance.

Manufacturers who implement Visiprise BOMM as part of their integrated manufacturing operations can:

• Access real-time visibility of part and process structure in one unique view
• Provide manufacturing engineers the ability to decide and define how a product will be brought together during its manufacture, or disassembled and reassembled during modification and maintenance
• Enable manufacturing engineers to confirm the completion of process plans
• Verify that the manufacturing production plan maps to the product designer’s engineering specifications
• Support the use of substitutes, alternates and synthetics

Visiprise BOMM includes features that drive better manufacturing process planning results:

• Total product and process module - allows simultaneous BOM structure and required assembly and fabrication process plan identification
• BOM reconciliation - reports how each component requirement in the EBOM is satisfied within the MBOM/production plan and how each item was achieved during manufacturing in the ABOM
• Multi-level tree graph – provides a dynamic display of item-specific information and the usage information regarding its component parts.
• Multiple BOM views - creates a digital genealogy of all parts and serial numbers supporting multiple BOM views within a single module
• Effectivity Controls - controls the part content of an item using model/variant/unit or date effectivity
