Altium 365 BOM Portal - From PCB Design to Parts Ordering in Minutes

Where Front-End BOM Sourcing Fails

Manual BOM creation, spreadsheet-based part sourcing, and disconnected supplier data often result in delays. Incomplete or missing part data is frequently cited by engineers as a major cause of late-stage design changes.

Key Issues

Disconnected part data across tools and teams
Lack of visibility into lifecycle and lead time
BOM errors discovered too late in the design flow

How Altium 365's BOM Portal Drives Better Upfront Design Decisions

Automatically match components with approved suppliers in real time
Identify lifecycle and availability risks before parts are placed
Surface actionable lead time and sourcing insights early.
