CAD2BOM Engineering

Accelerate job progress with integrated engineering

Engineering and production teams often lose time manually transferring BOMs, drawings, and revisions between CAD software and ERP systems. CAD2BOM helps manufacturers connect engineering directly with manufacturing operations by automatically converting CAD designs into accurate BOMs ready for production.

CAD2BOM integrates your engineering team with your manufacturing floor so you can deliver faster and more efficiently. Our industry-leading CAD connection allows for true concurrent engineering with progressive release, so you can begin manufacturing the first phase of a project while later stages are still being engineered.

Engineering changes, drawings, and manufacturing information stay connected throughout the project, helping teams improve coordination, reduce production errors caused by outdated information, and keep jobs moving forward.

The Challenge

Disconnected engineering and production workflows

When CAD and ERP systems are disconnected, manufacturers often rely on spreadsheets, manual data entry, and duplicate workflows to transfer engineering information into production. BOM revisions, drawing updates, and purchasing information can quickly become disconnected between departments, leading to delays, outdated information, production errors, and lost time across the business.

The Solution

Connect CAD and ERP in one system

CAD2BOM helps manufacturers connect engineering directly with purchasing and production by automatically converting CAD designs into accurate BOMs inside Genius ERP. Engineering changes, drawings, and manufacturing information stay aligned throughout the project, improving coordination between departments while reducing manual data entry and production errors.

Why CAD2BOM matters

Engineering changes can affect purchasing, inventory, scheduling, and production long before manufacturing begins. Without a connected CAD-to-ERP workflow, teams often spend valuable time tracking revisions, updating BOMs, and verifying information between departments.

CAD2BOM helps manufacturers improve accuracy and coordination across the business by ensuring engineering data flows directly into manufacturing operations. This gives production teams better visibility into changes as projects move forward while helping reduce delays caused by outdated or disconnected information.

Designed for manufacturers managing complex production

CAD2BOM is designed for manufacturers managing engineering-driven production environments, including project-based manufacturing, engineer-to-order operations, and high-mix production. For manufacturers handling complex BOMs, frequent revisions, or large numbers of custom parts, manually transferring engineering data into ERP systems can slow down production and increase the risk of errors.

By connecting engineering directly with purchasing and manufacturing inside Genius ERP, teams can improve coordination across departments while keeping projects moving efficiently from design through production.
