PCN Manager can be used as a standalone module, so you can start tracking and managing change notifications without adopting the rest of the Z2 platform. It also connects seamlessly with Z2's other modules, such as Part Risk Manager and BOM management, when you are ready to expand.
A PCN is an official notice from a component manufacturer alerting customers to upcoming changes, such as material updates, process shifts, or end-of-life announcements. Unmanaged PCNs can halt production, trigger costly redesigns, and create supply chain gaps. Z2's PCN Manager helps you catch and act on them before they become problems.
Z2's PCN Manager monitors EOL notifications across your full BOM, flags high-priority changes, and gives you the lead time needed to source alternatives or redesign before a discontinuation disrupts production.
The key is catching PCNs early. Z2 alerts your team the moment a relevant change notification is issued, so you can assess impact and resolve issues before they become production stoppages.
