Case Study: Puro Lighting cuts BOM reuse time from an hour to 5 minutes with OpenBOM

Puro Lighting Optimizing BOM Management Process and Takes The Entire Process Of BOM Reuse from an hour to 5 minutes

Puro Lighting, a manufacturer of UV disinfection technology, faced challenges with an unwieldy and unreliable Excel-based system for managing Bills of Materials (BOMs). As the company scaled, their spreadsheet process, which relied on numerous templates and tabs, became a bottleneck. They could not create reliable BOMs or efficiently reuse them to introduce new products, hindering their growth. This led them to seek a solution from OpenBOM.

OpenBOM provided a purpose-built BOM management platform that centralized item data into a single master catalog. The solution allowed Puro Lighting to import existing BOM data, attach reference files to items, and easily manage changes that automatically updated across all relevant BOMs. The measurable impact was significant, with OpenBOM reducing the entire process of reusing a product BOM from one hour to just five minutes. This drastically improved their efficiency in creating new product SKUs and onboarding new engineers.
