Our role in your industry
Klipboard's Role in Electronics Manufacturing
At Klipboard, we understand that electronics manufacturing across Africa operates in highly controlled, component-intensive environments where precision and traceability are critical. Our electronics manufacturing ERP software supports complex, multi-level BOMs, manages component lifecycle risks, and maintains the documentation and control standards required by both local and international customers.
By integrating purchasing, production, and quality management within a single ERP platform, Klipboard helps electronics manufacturers manage component lifecycles, control operational costs, and deliver consistent product quality and documentation across local and export supply chains.
The challenges you face
We Understand the Challenges You're Facing
You’re not just assembling electronics; you’re managing large component counts, tracking obsolescence, meeting customer and regulatory requirements, and protecting margins in a competitive market. We work with electronics manufacturers supplying industrial, consumer, and export markets, so we understand the challenges you face:
-
Complex BOMs with High Component Counts: Electronic products often contain hundreds of components. Managing specifications, approved alternatives, and revision control across multiple product lines requires structured BOM management within an electronics ERP environment.
-
Component Obsolescence and Lifecycle Management: Electronic components have limited lifespans. Managing last-time-buys, qualifying alternatives, and updating BOMs before supplying interruptions of impact production requires proactive planning.
-
Traceability and Compliance Requirements: Customer requirements and regulatory expectations demand full component traceability and supporting documentation throughout the supply chain. Maintaining this level of control is essential for quality assurance and audit readiness.
-
Multiple Suppliers and Variable Lead Times: Component availability can fluctuate significantly. Balancing multiple suppliers, managing long lead times, and avoiding production delays requires disciplined planning and visibility.
We've seen it, we've heard it - and we've built Klipboard Manufacturing to help you take control of it.
