We implemented automated BOM cost rollup using Agile SDK to eliminate manual NPI delays. Previously, cost engineers spent 3-4 days manually validating and rolling up costs for each new product introduction. Our solution uses SDK-based rollup invocation triggered by change order releases, with real-time dashboard integration showing live cost calculations.
The implementation validates component costs against supplier agreements, automatically rolls up assembly costs through multi-level BOMs, and pushes results to executive dashboards. We’re seeing 30% faster NPI cycle time with significantly improved cost accuracy. The API integration handles complex scenarios like alternate parts, quantity breaks, and effectivity dates.
Happy to share technical details on the SDK implementation approach and dashboard connectivity patterns.
