Master BOM Management
Make confident, cost-aware build decisions with a source of truth your entire team can rely on.
Build Better Products with Shared Data
Product engineers move faster when they can trust their data. Inventory, purchasing, and product specs are all connected in one searchable system.
- See inventory on-hand before sourcing new parts
- Compare supplier prices and lead times on the fly
- Choose from approved alternates when parts are out
No more spreadsheet chaos or stale part data.
Reuse Intelligently. Reduce Waste.
Aligni’s “where-used” visibility puts every component’s footprint at your fingertips, letting you shrink your SKU count and operate with less overhead.
By reusing proven parts with an existing operational track record, you minimize design errors and empower faster, more consistent decision-making across your product lines.
What is a BOM?
A Bill of Materials (BOM) is the full recipe for your product. It lists every component—down to screws and stickers—needed to build it, including quantities, suppliers, costs, and where those parts go. Aligni manages this info for you, from first draft to final revision.
Accurate Build Costing
Reduce uncertainty and effort with built-in vendor quoting, support for standard cost, and Aligni’s flexible cost sheet view:
- Instantly calculate project pricing from active quotes and historical purchases
- Automatic volume pricing based on vendor price breaks
- Drill-down computation quickly prices hierarchical BOMs
- Optionally include excess material costs and attrition.
Track Revisions in Context
Every change to a BOM is documented—with the what, when, and why captured in one place.
- See who made the change and when it was released
- Keep discussions and decision notes alongside each revision
- Preserve institutional knowledge for future builds
Keep the Why with the Work
Conversations around BOMs, parts, and builds stay linked to the data they affect. Aligni’s DiscussAnything™ feature lets teams:
- Keep change discussions searchable and accessible
- Reduce duplicate questions and email threads
- Maintain a living record of decisions—attached to the right records
This is teamwork without the inbox noise.
Compare BOMs, Not Files
Spot differences between BOM versions instantly. Aligni’s built-in compare tool highlights changes item by item:
- Reduce costly errors from mismatched or phantom BOMs
- Avoid duplicate work by showing exactly what’s changed
- Streamline audits and design reviews

- Revoke access anytime to stay in control
