Modernizing BOM Management for a Global Semiconductor Leader
Rochester Electronics is the largest continuing source manufacturer of semiconductors globally, supplying over 100,000 products and maintaining more than 15 billion units in stock. As demand grew, so did the complexity of processing large volumes of Bills of Materials from customers across high-reliability industries.
The Challenge
Rochester required a faster, more reliable way to maintain and process thousands of complex BOM records. The system needed to support high-volume data transfers, recognize and modify Excel-based files, and run intensive operations without disrupting server performance.
- BOM files were increasing in both size and frequency.
- Manual processes slowed down engineering and customer support teams.
- Existing tools struggled with heavy data transactions and required more automation.
- The platform needed to accommodate different BOM formats, especially Excel spreadsheets.
- Reliability was critical — no room for system downtime or server congestion.
The Solution
We built a custom, modern web application tailored to Rochester’s workflow:
Intuitive BOM Management
A redesigned interface enabling quick entry, editing, uploading, and versioning of BOMs.
Excel Compatibility
Full support for reading, modifying, and validating spreadsheet-based BOMs.
Automated Batch Processing
Scheduled tasks for heavy data transfers, with error logging and optimized performance to prevent server overload.
Scalable Architecture
A enterprise level stack solution built to handle large datasets and high transaction volumes with ease.
The Results
The new system significantly reduced manual workload, increased processing speed, and improved data accuracy. Rochester now manages a growing number of BOMs with confidence, supporting customers worldwide with faster and more dependable operations.
