Situation
Visibility of materials is one of the greatest concerns for many businesses. The lack of visibility often leads to increased risk (materials cannot be found when needed) and cost (purchasing materials that may already be in stock).
Complication
When materials are not maintained in BOMs and/or Tasks Lists, the need to Search is a necessary reality and this is not always a simple exercise, especially for team members or contractors that do not regularly work within online business systems.
Resolution
