The Material Registry is a centralized, structured database of the products and materials you use, whether for running your operations or for manufacturing other goods. It connects directly with your internal databases, giving you one place to view material statistics while linking seamlessly to your materials supply list (product supply list) for sourcing and mapping purposes.
Beyond serving as a reference list, the Material Registry lets you attach engineering requirements (such as rating, operating conditions, services used for, or tolerances) to each item. This makes it easier to communicate consistently with external stakeholders, such as suppliers, partners, or customers – by using a common product and engineering language.
The registry also includes a dedicated data management module that helps you:
- Harmonize data by standardizing formats and structures.
- Map records to aggregate duplicates and consolidate fragmented information.
- Connect equivalent materials across databases, ensuring consistency and reducing redundancy.
By combining sourcing, engineering, and data management, the Material Registry streamlines processes, accelerates decision-making, and improves collaboration inside and outside your organization.
