Moving from wind tunnel testing of physical prototypes to simulation-driven design processes can offer typical automotive OEMs more than 500% ROI (return on investment), according to research from Tufts University’s Gordon Institute for engineering management.

Taking bill of materials management into the cloud allows small engineering companies—such as hardware startups–and contract manufacturers to track and share data and offers easy BOM data import from design tools, said the two co-founders of openBoM.

Manufacturing is changing and with it comes a need to change the way BoMs are managed. The change is brought about by several trends in the market. These include globalization of manufacturing and supply chain, a growing number of new hardware developers, a surge in the maker movement, increased reliance on contract manufacturing, and variety of new manufacturing practices including adoption of internet and mobile tools and technologies.
