Parts & assemblies
Describe products using multi-level structures. Keep the components and quantities needed for an assembly connected to the parts your team quotes, buys and makes.
Bills of materials
Define the product.
Connect the build.
Keep parts, assemblies and their component requirements together. Jems connects multi-level bills of materials with quoting, material planning and works orders, so the product structure follows the work.
The detail behind the product
A shared structure for your team.
Versions & documents
Manage BOM versions and attach drawings and datasheets. Keep supporting product information alongside the structure it describes.
Requirements & work
Use the product structure in material planning and works orders. Connect component requirements with stock and purchasing decisions.
From specification to production
Carry the detail
into the next step.
A finished assembly may contain bought-in parts and subassemblies that you manufacture. Its BOM gives the office, stores and production team a common view of those requirements.
In Jems, that structure sits alongside quoting and costing, MRP and works orders. Material requirements can be reviewed against stock and purchasing information in the same system.
Where the customer supplies material, free-issue requirements and ownership can be managed against the same part record as purchased stock.
Your questions
Bills of materials in Jems.
Can we manage assemblies within assemblies?
Yes. Jems supports multi-level product structures, so components and subassemblies can be represented within a finished product’s bill of materials.
Does BOM versioning include engineering change control?
BOM versioning is available. Formal Engineering Change Control is a separate planned development, with timing to be confirmed. See the roadmap and discuss the approval and revision process your team needs.
What should we bring to a demo?
Bring a representative BOM, including a subassembly, its drawings and the way your team handles revisions. We can follow it through quoting, material requirements and a manufacturing job.
Are bills of materials included in Standard?
Yes. Parts and bills of materials are included in Jems Standard alongside quoting, MRP, stock and production. See subscription pricing. Implementation and migration are quoted separately.
