openBoM Expands Onshape BOM Management Capabilities

openBoM, the world’s first cloud BOM management tool specifically designed to help manufacturing companies manage and track BOMs across organizational and geographic boundaries, is now available as an app seamlessly integrated within the Onshape environment, the world’s first full cloud CAD solution. openBoM addresses the pain of data handover between design environments (CAD) and engineering environments (BOM). Onshape users now have a means to improve processes linking design and engineering by having direct access to a flexible BOM management and collaboration tool built directly into their design environment. Moreover, openBoM’s unique collaborative capabilities and integration with other MCAD and ECAD systems expands Onshape BOM management and enables multidisciplinary BOM support and integration with suppliers and contract manufacturers.

Available now in the Onshape App Store as an integrated app, openBoM provides Onshape users in addition to it’s unique BOM management and collaboration features, the following: 

  • Ability to create a shareable BOM within an Onshape document;
  • Access to the openBoM BOM editor directly within an Onshape document tab;
  • Generate a BOM from an Onshape workspace with various assemblies and parts options;
  • Create new and edit existing BOM properties;
  • Bi-directional update of Onshape data attributes and openBoM properties; and
  • Share a BOM within Onshape and collaborate with others, even with non Onshape users.

“We are happy to offer Onshape users improved data handover between their designs and Bills-of-Materials,” said Oleg Shilovitsky, CEO and Co-founder of openBoM, “by providing a uniquely flexible BOM management and collaboration tool to manage BOMs and at the same time, support real time collaboration and simultaneous BOM editing.” “openBoM’s BOM management tool integrated within the Onshape environment will give our users an industry first ability to effectively link their CAD designs with BOM management,” said Joe Dunne, Partner Program Manager at Onshape.
