Default Bom Scrubbing

Most product BOMs are dirty, consisting of duplicate and incomplete part data. Data cleansing is the foundation of successful compliance management. bom scrub involves verifying the consistency and accuracy of manufacturer names and part numbers and the integrity of all line item information. A BOM may be used by an enterprise to facilitate forecasting, sales, and purchasing functions and is the part of the foundation for component-based, enterprise-wide knowledge management and business intelligence systems. The BOM is also critical in the proper functionality of many purchasing, procurement, component second sourcing, planning and manufacturing execution systems. Thus enough attention should be paid to its accuracy.
BOM scrubbing consists of correcting or validating three basic content fields from a bill of materials – orderable part number, manufacturer’s name, and component description. BOM scrubbing compares each line item against an internal “golden” database, or purchased or rented external database, or compares the line item against the component’s datasheet gathered from the web. BOM scrubbing guarantees order ability – the correct manufacturer’s name, address, and telephone number and the accurate orderable part number are a minimum requirement to place your part order. It minimizes spend errors – by guaranteeing accurate orderable part numbers, part order aggregation is supported and increased parts discounts are now available. It also minimizes obsolete inventory – by correctly ordering the appropriate part, obsolete inventory and subsequent write-offs are kept to a minimum. Adding to this, it helps remove manufacturing down time – if the correct parts are ordered, manufacturing down time is kept to a minimum also.
