In this webinar, attendees will be introduced to connecting Engineering Bill of Materials (EBOM) data to the Manufacturing Bill of Materials (MBOM) in the Dassault Systemes 3DExperience Platform.  This ongoing connection allow users to plan a process for manufacturing while continuing to design the product and its variants.   It does not matter where the design data resides whether it is CATIA, Solidworks, or another design tool.  These relationships and connections can be maintained to allow the MBOM to be updated based on changes in the EBOM.

The webinar will use this context to discuss the solutions to key process engineering challenges like Make versus Buy, Increasing Model Variants, Handling Engineering Changes, and balancing the complexity of a process versus shop floor flexibility.  In summary, the main focus of the webinar will be how to solve these challenges by having design and manufacturing accessing the same data that is always current and relevant.

Key Takeaways

1. The definition and use cases for EBOM and MBOM in developing process plans.

2. The methods used to update and maintain process plan data from EBOM through use in process plans.

3. Use case examples of process plans and how changes are propagated through the system.

4. Understanding the difference between process planning and CAD data management

5. A description of next steps beyond process planning and the implications related to data management.
