Case Study: Blaylock LLC streamlines multi-disciplinary BOM management with OpenBOM

Blaylock uses OpenBOM to manage multi-disciplinary BOM integrating information from Solidworks, Altium, Autodesk Fusion 360, Autodesk Eagle, and other data sources

Blaylock LLC, an engineering consultancy firm, required a flexible solution to manage multi-disciplinary bill of materials (BOMs) for its diverse client base. The challenge was integrating data from numerous different design tools, including SolidWorks, Altium, and various Autodesk applications, without duplicating information across multiple systems.

OpenBOM provided a lightweight, agile SaaS platform that acted as a central hub, connecting all of Blaylock LLC's data sources. The solution’s item master catalog and flexible BOM management allowed the firm to output deliverables in the exact format each customer demanded. This resulted in efficient collaboration and the ability to successfully redesign complex projects, such as an electrical cart system, by integrating new designs with existing client inventory and part numbers.
