Pulse Analysis
Manufacturers are under pressure to shorten development cycles and maintain data integrity across increasingly complex toolchains. Traditional workflows often involve disjointed desktop CAD applications, legacy PLM systems and siloed ERP platforms, forcing engineers to duplicate data and risk errors. The industry’s shift toward a unified digital thread—where design intent, bill of materials and supply‑chain information flow seamlessly—has become a strategic priority for firms seeking competitive agility.
OpenBOM’s cloud‑native product data management combined with AMC Bridge’s expertise in CAD and PLM integration creates a robust bridge between on‑premise engineering tools and cloud‑based collaboration hubs. Built on Autodesk Platform Services, the solution employs API‑driven connectivity to synchronize BOMs, engineering change orders and supplier records in near real‑time. A hybrid architecture ensures that companies can retain critical on‑premise data while leveraging the scalability and accessibility of the cloud, delivering performance, reliability and consistent data governance across distributed teams.
The partnership’s impact extends beyond operational efficiency. By embedding AI‑powered automation, the integrated platform can flag inconsistencies, suggest component substitutions and surface relevant documentation during design reviews, dramatically reducing routine manual effort. As manufacturers adopt this connected workflow, they can expect faster engineering cycles, improved decision‑making for global teams, and a stronger foundation for future innovations such as digital twins and predictive maintenance. The collaboration positions both OpenBOM and AMC Bridge as key enablers of the next generation of smart, data‑driven manufacturing.
OpenBOM, AMC Bridge expand integration partnership
OpenBOM is continuing its partnership with AMC Bridge to support software integrations aimed at improving digital continuity across the product lifecycle. The companies are working to connect design, engineering and supply chain data through integrations that reduce manual handoffs and support collaboration across distributed teams.
Supporting connected manufacturing workflows
The collaboration focuses on helping manufacturers update product data management processes. OpenBOM provides tools for managing bills of materials, engineering change orders and supplier information, while AMC Bridge develops integrations with CAD and engineering software platforms. The goal is to support hybrid environments that link desktop tools with cloud systems while maintaining data accuracy, performance and reliability.
Demonstrating collaboration at Autodesk University 2025
OpenBOM and AMC Bridge presented together at Autodesk University 2025 in Nashville at the Autodesk Platform Services booth. The session described how AMC Bridge supports OpenBOM integrations built on Autodesk Platform Services, connecting CAD, PLM, BOM and enterprise systems through hybrid cloud architectures and API-based connectivity.
The presentation also outlined how the integrations can synchronize product data in real time to link design environments with operational and manufacturing processes, supporting data consistency and traceability across teams.
Integration work
Through their ongoing cooperation, OpenBOM and AMC Bridge develop interoperability solutions for manufacturing organizations. Their work combines OpenBOM’s cloud-based product data management with AMC Bridge’s experience integrating CAD and PLM systems to support product data sharing across tools and teams.
The joint efforts focus on four areas:
-
Integrations connecting CAD, PLM, PDM, ERP and supply chain systems with the OpenBOM platform for BOM and product data management and a connected digital thread.
-
Integration quality, performance and stability, with testing and validation for production use.
-
UI and workflow design intended to simplify common tasks and reduce tool switching.
-
Issue resolution and ongoing support, including troubleshooting and updates for specific customer needs.
These capabilities are intended to help organizations replace manual handoffs and disconnected workflows with more consistent digital processes that improve traceability, shorten engineering cycles and support collaboration.
Partnership overview
As manufacturing requirements become more interconnected, OpenBOM and AMC Bridge are continuing their collaboration around digital product lifecycle and integration work. The companies are working to expand OpenBOM’s platform capabilities and support customer needs in areas such as:
-
Integrating design, production and supply chain systems using APIs and cloud technologies
-
Supporting product development with connected, near real-time data flows
-
