Trace Every Component From BOM to Warranty
Electrical and electronics manufacturing runs on multi-level bills of materials, component substitutions and serial or lot-level records that a warranty claim can trip over years later. TCB Infotech connects ERP, custom software and AI to keep that trail intact from sourcing to field return.
50+ ERP and software projects. Zero failed projects since 2021.
Every Substitution Has to Stay on Record
A generic parts list does not survive a component shortage. When one part gets substituted for another, the record has to hold, or a warranty claim three years later has nothing to point to.
A multi-level BOM that reflects what was actually built
Each build is tied to its BOM revision, and a component substitution made on the line, whether for shortage or cost, is recorded against that specific unit's build record, not just the general BOM.
- Multi-level BOM tracked by revision.
- Substitutions recorded against the specific unit built.
- Sourcing history kept per component.
Test results and serial data connected to your ERP
Test and inspection results are logged against each serial number and connect to your existing ERP and quality systems, and AI flags a component lot with a rising failure pattern before it spreads across more units.
- Connects to your existing ERP and quality systems.
- Custom tracking for serial, lot and test data.
- AI flags rising failure patterns by component lot.

How We Track a Build From BOM to Field Return
From a component substitution to a warranty claim, here is what the system tracks for an electrical or electronics manufacturer.
BOM, Traceability and Test, in One Record
A BOM record that reflects what was actually built
Every build is tied to its BOM revision across every level, and a component substitution made on the line for shortage or cost is recorded against that specific unit, not just noted and forgotten.
- Multi-level BOM tracked by revision.
- Substitutions recorded against the specific unit built.
- Sourcing history kept per component.
A serial number that carries its full build history
Each serial number is linked to the component lots and BOM revision used at build time, so a field return years later can be traced back to the exact components and test record without a manual search.
- Serial number linked to component lots at build time.
- Lot-level traceability for batch-sourced components.
- Full build history retrievable from one serial number.
Test results and warranty returns connected to the build
Test and inspection results are logged against each serial number, vendor and component sourcing history is tracked separately, and a warranty return is linked straight back to the original build and test record.
- Test and inspection results logged per serial number.
- Vendor performance tracked at the component level.
- Warranty returns linked to the original build record.
