The most trusted document in manufacturing might be the most misleading! Most manufacturing leaders don’t question their Bill of Material. They question pricing, labor, procurement etc.  But they rarely question the BOM itself, and sometimes that’s the problem.

Most organizations don’t choose to run without ERP. They just postpone the decision long enough that “temporary” becomes structural. At first, the cost feels manageable. Teams compensate. Leaders stay close to the details. Problems get solved through experience, memory, and effort. But over time, the cost of operating without a true ERP system doesn’t show […]
