A custom machine’s story does not end at commissioning. Govern & Trace for Special Purpose Machinery (SPM) equips your engineering teams to prove, throughout the machine’s life, that every requirement was met, every configuration is known, and every compliance record can be produced on demand.
Govern & Trace for SPM brings together requirement traceability, configuration control, BoM governance, safety file management and service intelligence, the record-keeping that connects design intent to what was actually built, shipped and maintained. Requirement traceability and configuration control keep design, build and service data consistent for every machine, even when customer options create many similar but non-identical builds. BoM governance keeps parts and revisions synchronised across engineering, procurement and service, while safety file management structures the CE technical files and declaration inputs that EU-bound machines require under Machinery Regulation (EU) 2023/1230. Service intelligence then closes the loop, feeding field data back into design and maintenance decisions.
The result: a defensible, auditable record for every machine you build, ready for customer review, regulatory audit or field service, whenever it’s needed.
Synchronise parts, suppliers and service records
BoM Governance aligns engineering, manufacturing, service and spare‑parts structures so everyone references the correct parts, quantities and revisions. For SPM, where customer options, fabricated assemblies and control components vary by machine, robust BoM control prevents wrong orders, incomplete builds and costly rework.
We reconcile EBOM, MBOM and service BoMs, enforce part classification and make‑buy rules, and maintain revision‑accurate BoM comparisons through release, shipment and as‑built states. The outcome is reliable procurement, clear assembly packages and faster, accurate service support across the equipment lifecycle.
Create EBOM, MBOM, SBOM and spare‑parts structures with recommended spares.
Compare EBOM→MBOM→FAT→shipment→as‑built states to catch mismatches.
Standardise purchased, fabricated, electrical, pneumatic, hydraulic and controls parts.
Manage effectivity and customer‑specific options within BoMs.
Validate revision, quantity, unit, material, supplier and lead‑time data.
Provide BoM integration inputs for procurement, MRP and production planning.
Classify parts, define make‑vs‑buy rules and link supplier packages.
