Case Study: Display Technologies streamlines design-to-shipment operations with OpenBOM

Northern England’s Display Technologies Skips Excels and Grows Business Using OpenBOM Backbone Platform To Support Design To Shipment Process

Display Technologies, a manufacturer of high-end projector screens based in Northern England, sought to replace inefficient Excel-based processes and disparate tools to manage their custom project business. Their challenge was to streamline operations from design to shipment for their highly custom, installer-focused products. They selected OpenBOM as their backbone platform to achieve this.

By implementing OpenBOM integrated with Onshape CAD, the company established a centralized system for managing product data, bills of materials, and manufacturing planning. This allowed for high part reuse through configurable catalogs and seamless data flow. The solution provided by OpenBOM enabled the company to scale efficiently, improve data accessibility for the entire team from anywhere, and fully support their custom project workflow from initial design all the way to final shipment.
