Many manufacturers struggle with disconnected engineering and manufacturing processes—resulting in rework, delays, and costly errors. In this session, we’ll explore how to bridge the gap between your engineering bill of materials (eBOM) and manufacturing bill of materials (mBOM) using Autodesk Fusion Manage.

Join PLM expert John Kuta as he walks through a practical, step-by-step demonstration of how Fusion Manage helps keep engineering and manufacturing in sync. You’ll learn how to manage change efficiently, reduce manual data entry, and connect your Vault PDM and ERP systems to Fusion Manage for a seamless PLM experience.

Key Takeaways:

  • How to create and maintain synchronized eBOM and mBOM structures
  • A real-world example of BOM updates and change management using Fusion Manage
  • The value of PLM extensions and integrations like KETIV DataBridge
  • How a Business Process Assessment can uncover your biggest improvement opportunities

This is a must-attend session for anyone looking to connect design and manufacturing, reduce errors, and get more value from their PLM investment.
