Configurable Products
Configurable Products means choices without challenges. Easily customize product configurations for each customer using a single BOM containing pre-defined component groupings for thousands of potential hardware permutations you can choose at the push of a button.
-
Engineering Change
Oversee engineering changes in a traceable repository. Every description, due date, status, review, and approval is consolidated in one spot. Say goodbye to archaic spreadsheets, errant emails, and extraneous applications.
-
WIP Tracking
Tracking work in process in real-time down to the work center allows you to accurately update customers for orders in process. If a production issue or component problem arises, Hatch flags it. There are no curtains to hide behind.
-
Inventory Management
See finished goods, what’s allocated and what’s not, and raw materials on hand. With a few keystrokes you can change inventory levels, generate reports, and plan actions.
-
Supply Chain Analyzer
International events can trigger supply chain obstacles at any moment. Besides showing the country of origin for individual components in your products, the Supply Chain Analyzer break down the overall percentage by country to guide product decisions.
-
Global Compliance
We’ve got an information hub that tells where your products are certified to ship and what you need to export to new countries. All the import/export requirements are there.
