Name: Ciiva BOM Manager
Rating: 4.5 (2 reviews)

By Ciiva

Ciiva BOM Manager is a cloud-based Bill of Materials (BOM) management software that takes care of all the BOM management needs of the business, from storing component data to managing, tracking, and reviewing changes across the entire lifespan of the product. Electronic products often contain hundreds of electronic parts, sourcing from various global electronic manufacturers and distributors. BOM modification can be made at various stages throughout the life-cycle, often without changing original hardware design data, such as schematics or layout. For many companies, this can be an error prone manual change to a spreadsheet or design document, with no record of when they were made or why they were made or by whom. Many small and medium size enterprises are still using Excel spreadsheet for BOM management, which is not optimal and can lead to a variety of well documented problems Ciiva is a changes history traceable, version controlled BOM management system (BMMS), and where every single component used in a BOM is managed in a cloud component library. It is also a collaborative product lifecycle management solution. This means it is designed to support multiple users working from different global locations with the same main component library simultaneously. It uses real-time database synchronization between multiple users to guarantee that every user is always working with the latest and identical database, so that information fragmentation and data conflicts will not occur. User can now instantly check what products a specific component is used on, making it extremely convenient to see what impact a change to a component may have on which products, such as a component product life-cycle change notification. Ciiva provides real-time pricing and stock information from a wide range of top distributors allowing instant price and stock comparison. It is flexible to be used and provides the ability for companies to customize their database by defining custom attributes. Ciiva products solve customer problems by organizing and integrating stand-alone and fragmented information sources, saving time and money. Installation of the client does not require any administrator privileges or IT expertise. Ciiva client software is updated automatically without user's effort. In this respect, it is as simple as using a web based application. It is not entirely web based allowing offline working, faster performance, greater flexibility and much tighter integration with the rest of the tool chain.

Benefits

Easy to see exactly who made changes to your components and where the components are being used

The Ciiva BOM Manager makes it easy to see exactly who made changes to your components or BOMs and when throughout the entire design history, thanks to its integrated version control. Users can also make a quick comparison between versions and be able to have a better understanding of the changes through visuals. And for every BOM, users can easily view exactly where the components are being used thanks to powerful where-used tools in place.

Information is readily and easily available to acquire in the system

The Ciiva BOM Manager also provides users an easier understanding of the lifecycle states for every component and swap out parts with approved alternatives if needed from dozens of approved suppliers the users can easily reach to. No more time wasted just for searching for replacements as all information is readily and easily available to acquire in the system.

Controlled access accounts for specific users for added security

Users can easily manage their BOM lifecycle directly from their design tool without the need to import or export files. In addition, they can also securely share their BOM data in the platform with every individual involved in the production process, with the option to set up controlled access accounts for specific users for added security. Even the most complex BOMs can be easily organized shared through multi-level BOMs in place.
