SYSTEM AND METHODS FOR MANAGING CHANGES TO A PRODUCT IN A MANUFACTURING ENVIRONMENT INCLUDING A BILL OF MATERIAL PRE-PROCESSOR
First Claim
1. A manufacturing process management (MPM) computer device (212) comprising a processor (405) and at least one memory device (410), wherein said processor (405) is in communication with said at least one memory device (410), said MPM computer device (212) configured to:
- receive (605) a first engineering design (102) for a first configuration of a product to be assembled including a plurality of features (104);
determine (610) a plurality of parts (116) associated with the plurality of features (104) based on the received engineering design (102); and
prior to completion of a manufacturing process plan (126), generate (615) a manufacturing bill of materials (124) based on the determined plurality of parts (116).
