Case Study: Tomcar achieves global BOM sharing and full product definition with OpenBOM

Tomcar uses OpenBOM To Deliver Full Product Definition Shared Globally With All Company Users and Manufacturing Partners

Tomcar, a manufacturer of all-terrain vehicles, faced a challenge with inaccurate and difficult-to-share Bill of Materials (BOM) data, which relied too much on tribal knowledge. This hindered their ability to effectively communicate with global manufacturing partners and manage their supply chain. They turned to OpenBOM for a solution to formalize their product data management.

By implementing OpenBOM, Tomcar was able to create a centralized, accurate, and shareable product definition for all users and partners. The solution enabled them to restructure their BOMs for greater granularity and manage complex projects like a new electric vehicle variant, improving part reuse and supply chain communication. As a result, OpenBOM became a vital, integrated part of their engineering process, allowing them to manage revisions, track orders accurately, and prepare for new partnerships and high-volume manufacturing.
