PCNAlert, for component event management, permits customers to receive manufacturers’ part change notices in a timely fashion.
The tool ranks manufacturers based on their notification process. With this ranking, design engineers and procurement groups can assess the risk of using parts from a particular manufacturer. It also checks manufacturers’ Websites daily looking for posted notices about part changes.
Includes AVLalert, which monitors approved vendor lists and approved manufacturer lists for product change notifications (PCNs) and end-of-life notices; and BOMverifier, an automatic on-demand BoM and parts list scrubber.
