ScaleB brings parts, drawings, BOMs, and changes under control for automotive and aerospace suppliers growing beyond Excel and email.
- Teams always know what is latest, approved, and valid
- Audits become predictable instead of last-minute fire drills
Supplier Grade PLM
What breaks at suppliers when Excel runs engineering
- No one is fully sure which drawing or BOM is the latest
- Changes are discussed, but not formally approved or recorded
- Production works with outdated or incomplete information
- Quality teams struggle to prove control during audits
- New engineers take weeks to understand current status
- Small mistakes turn into rework, scrap, or customer escalations
Excel works when teams are small and products are simple. But as suppliers add customers, variants, and programs, informal tools stop providing clarity. Engineering knowledge gets scattered across files, emails, and individual experience. Over time, the problem is not effort or intent. It is the lack of a system that shows what is approved, what is valid, and what has changed.
