Design for Supply Chain
BOM performance analysis
Component-level risk intelligence applied before production to prevent hidden supply chain failures
Stage 1. The problem
Your BOM already contains hidden risks
Some components in your BOM may no longer be manufactured within the next 18 months. This is often only discovered when procurement fails.
Supply chain fragility is already inside your design
Single-source dependencies, end-of-life components, and export restrictions are three key reasons why a seemingly stable supply chain can collapse. How many components in your BOM are exposed to any of these risks?
Resilience is not inventory
Resilience is the ability to identify, before production, which components will create supply issues. Most EMS providers do not have this visibility.
Stage 2. Our solution
DigiProces integrates component health data directly into its management systems. Each MPN is associated with:
- Lifecycle and absolescence status
- Supply chain risk indicators
- Qualified alternative components
This allows BOMs to be interpreted differently from the moment they are received.
Defining the “unhealthy” BOM
An unhealthy BOM is a BOM that contains risk-exposed components that have not been mapped or identified.
These cases are frequently detected in new projects. The key advantage is timing: when identified early, they are fully solvable.
Typical scenario
A customer would bring a project ready for production. During BOM review, components with obsolescence risk would be identified, along with single-source parts without qualified alternatives.
In that scenario, the component selection would be redesigned before production release, ensuring supply continuity and manufacturing readiness.
The result would be the avoidance of potential production downtime measured in months.
Stage 3. The service
BOM health audit
A structured BOM analysis service delivered within a defined lead time. The output includes:
- Risk classification of all BOM components
- Identification of obsolescence and supply chain exposure
- Recommended qualified alternatives
- Prioritization by criticality
