Bill of Materials Software for Defense & Aerospace
BOM management built for the reality of defense and aerospace: as9100 traceability tied to every production step, itar and export-controlled materials drive workflow restrictions, and long lead-time forgings and castings dominate planning horizons. Generic BOM management ignores these constraints. We built ours around them — for 35+ years.
Why Defense and aerospace manufacturers Need Bill of Materials Software That Understands Their Floor
Defense & aerospace is not generic ITAR. Every AS9100 decision is shaped by as9100 traceability tied to every production step, every order is shaped by itar and export-controlled materials drive workflow restrictions, and every weekly plan gets disrupted by long lead-time forgings and castings dominate planning horizons. Off-the-shelf BOM management tools were built for a textbook model of manufacturing that does not survive contact with a real defense and aerospace floor. Our bill of materials software starts from the constraints — multi-level bom management with unlimited depth, modeled the way defense and aerospace manufacturers actually run them.
- AS9100 traceability tied to every production step
- ITAR and export-controlled materials drive workflow restrictions
- Long lead-time forgings and castings dominate planning horizons
- First Article Inspection (FAI) milestones gate production progress
How Our Bill of Materials Software Works for Defense & Aerospace
Bill of Materials Software is a finite-capacity-aware scheduling engine purpose-built for the messiness of real manufacturing. For defense and aerospace manufacturers — including tier 1 aerospace suppliers — it handles as9100 traceability tied to every production step, itar and export-controlled materials drive workflow restrictions, and long lead-time forgings and castings dominate planning horizons in a single Gantt-driven interface planners can actually use. Below is what that looks like in practice.
- Multi-level BOM management with unlimited depth
- Engineering change order (ECO) workflow
- BOM revision history and effective-dates
- BOM-to-routing linkage for end-to-end traceability
