When inventory and production don’t sync, everything grinds to a halt

Digit helps electronics and component manufacturers keep production moving. Manage your parts, BOMs, and production runs with a real-time overview to avoid shortages, and track all your moving pieces to shipment.

Electronics Inventory Software

Electronics manufacturing needs accuracy and clear records. You have to track each part, document every step, and check every finished product. Component inventory management puts all of this in one place. You can plan and follow production, manage complex BOMs, and link purchasing, inventory, and shop floor work. Barcode scanning and real-time updates improve inventory counts, and automated records show every move, change, and assembly step.

No matter what you build, Digit helps you stay compliant, cut down on rework, and react fast when demand changes. You can trace every part and product by lot, serial number, and supplier. This gives you the control and insight to deliver on time and meet your specs.

"With Digit, everything from our inventory to our production data is the word of truth. I can trust it. I can rely on it."

frequently asked questions
How do electronics manufacturers track components?
Chevron down icon

To keep track of components, manufacturers assign each part a unique ID, often with barcodes, QR codes, RFID tags, or laser markings.

As parts move through receiving, assembly, and testing, teams scan these IDs. Systems such as electronics MES and ERP software track each part’s history. Some companies use AI cameras or blockchain to make tracking even more accurate. This traceability makes it easier to control quality, catch mistakes early, and handle recalls quickly and safely.

What is an Approved Vendor List (AVL)?
Chevron down icon

An Approved Vendor List (AVL), sometimes called an Approved Supplier List, is a list of suppliers a company trusts because they’ve passed checks for quality, reliability, and safety.

Only vendors on the AVL can supply parts or services. This reduces risk, keeps quality high, and makes purchasing faster. Teams review and update the list regularly to make sure vendors still meet the company’s standards.

How do you manage component obsolescence?
Chevron down icon

To manage component obsolescence, teams keep an eye on part lifecycles, build strong relationships with suppliers, and plan ahead.

They use databases and supplier alerts to spot parts that are about to go obsolete, then plan last-time buys or pick alternatives. Designing products with flexible, modular parts helps avoid major redesigns. Regular BOM reviews, careful inventory planning, and teamwork across departments help keep production on track and avoid expensive delays when parts run out.

What is serial number traceability in electronics?
Chevron down icon

Serial number traceability in electronics means giving each item a unique number so you can track it from production all the way through shipping, use, repair, or recall.

When companies scan these numbers, they can see where a device came from, when it was made, and how it’s been used. This makes it easier to manage warranties, solve problems quickly, improve quality, and meet industry requirements.

What is a multi-level BOM in electronics manufacturing?
Chevron down icon

Manufacturers use BOMs in EMS software to list every part, material, and step needed to build a product.

Instead of messy spreadsheets, teams get one accurate place to manage components, costs, and build instructions. BOM software works for both single- and multi-level assemblies, tracks version changes, and connects materials to workstations and routes. This helps improve quality, cut down on mistakes, and makes it easier to plan, build, and update products.

What is IPC-A-610 compliance?
Chevron down icon

IPC-A-610 compliance means following the global gold standard for judging how well an electronic assembly is built.

It provides clear visual rules for solder quality, component placement, wiring, and cleanliness. The standard has three classes, from everyday electronics to high-reliability products like medical or aerospace. By meeting IPC-A-610, manufacturers ensure consistent quality, fewer defects, and products customers can trust. Certification also shows workers know how to apply these rules correctly.

What is counterfeit component detection?
Chevron down icon

Counterfeit component detection means finding fake or altered electronic parts before they end up in products.

Inspectors look for clues like wrong labels, sloppy markings, or signs of reuse. More advanced tests (such as X-rays, electrical checks, and even opening the chip) confirm if a part is genuine. This protects people and companies by keeping unsafe or unreliable components out of airplanes, medical devices, computers, and other important systems.

How do electronics manufacturers handle rework?
Chevron down icon

When rework is needed, electronics manufacturers follow a clear repair process.

First, teams find defects using tests or cameras, then carefully remove the faulty part with hot air, soldering irons, or vacuum tools. After cleaning the pads, they place a new component and resolder it, sometimes reballing BGAs. Finally, they inspect and test the repair, look for root causes, and update processes to help prevent the same mistakes in the future.
