Description
Role & responsibilities 1. BOM Creation & Management Preparation of BOM: Creating the Bill of Material for PCB assemblies, which includes specifying all components (resistors, capacitors, ICs, connectors, etc.) required for the assembly process. Component Identification: Identifying and cataloging all components based on the PCB design files (schematics, gerber files, etc.). Part Numbers: Assigning correct part numbers, quantities, and manufacturers to ensure compatibility and availability. Version Control: Maintaining BOM versions to reflect updates in design or component specifications. 2. Collaboration with Design & Engineering Teams Design Review: Working closely with the PCB designers and electrical engineers to ensure that the components specified in the BOM match the design and functional requirements of the PCB. Component Substitution: Identifying suitable alternatives for components in case of component obsolescence or availability issues while ensuring the design integrity is maintained. Design Feedback: Providing feedback to the design team if there are any discrepancies or if certain components need to be replaced. 3. Component Sourcing & Procurement Support Sourcing Components: Coordinating with the procurement or purchasing department to source the components listed in the BOM. Supplier Communication: Liaising with suppliers and manufacturers to gather information on component lead times, pricing, and availability. Component Lifecycle Management: Keeping track of component lifecycle and obsolescence to prevent delays in the production process due to discontinued parts. 4. Quality Control and Compliance Compliance: Ensuring that all components meet industry standards and regulations (such as RoHS, CE, UL, etc.). Quality Assurance: Working with quality control teams to ensure the selected components are reliable and meet the desired specifications. Audit Support: Assisting in audits for component sourcing, inventory management, and traceability. 5. Revision and Change Management Change Management: Managing BOM changes due to design updates, new versions, or component substitutions and ensuring these changes are reflected accurately. Documentation: Keeping thorough records of all BOM versions, changes, and approvals. 6 Technical Support and Troubleshooting Technical Assistance: Providing support to the production and assembly teams if there are any issues related to components or the BOM. Problem-Solving: Assisting in troubleshooting during the assembly process if errors arise in the BOM or component compatibility. 7. Cross-functional Communication Communication with Assembly Team: Ensuring that the assembly line has a clear understanding of the BOM and any specific requirements for the components. Coordination with Testing Team: Ensuring that the BOM aligns with the testing requirements for the PCB to meet quality standards. 8. Documentation & Reporting Documentation Preparation: Preparing detailed reports on BOM components, sourcing information, cost analysis, and any changes made to the BOM. Reporting to Management: Providing regular updates to management on BOM preparation status, component availability, and any challenges faced.
