System and Method for Cross-Plant Bill of Materials

A non-transitory computer readable medium comprising instructions, that when executed by a computer processor configures the computer processor for:

• receiving a plurality of bills of materials (BOMs) for a plurality of end products, wherein the plurality of BOMs are associated with a plurality of corresponding manufacturing plants and comprise a plurality of component product identifiers;
• determining a plant group, wherein the plant group comprises a portion of the corresponding manufacturing plants determined to be included in logistical processes for a first end product in the plurality of end products;
• determining a portion of the plurality of BOMs associated with the portion of the corresponding manufacturing plants;
• and
• generating a cross-plant BOM comprising a first BOM, associated with the plant group, for the first end product, and a second BOM, associated with the plant group, for a second end product in the plurality of end products.

A system comprising:

• one or more computer processors;
• and
• a computer readable medium comprising instructions that when executed configure the one or more computer processors to:
• receive a plurality of bills of materials (BOMs) for a plurality of end products, wherein the plurality of BOMs are associated with a plurality of corresponding manufacturing plants and comprise a plurality of component product identifiers;
• determine a plant group, wherein the plant group comprises a portion of the corresponding manufacturing plants determined to be included in logistical processes for a first end product in the plurality of end products;
• determine a portion of the plurality of BOMs associated with the portion of the corresponding manufacturing plants;
• and
• generate a cross-plant BOM comprising a first BOM, associated with the plant group, for the first end product, and a second BOM, associated with the plant group, for a second end product in the plurality of end products.
