★★★★★ 9/10 NPS Score 9 out of 10 customers would recommend Z2 to a peer. Source: Z2 Customer Satisfaction Survey 2026
Upload your BOM and Z2 scores every part for obsolescence, compliance, and supply chain risk, then keeps watching so problems surface before they stall your build.
Engineering and sourcing teams at leading OEMs run on Z2
Manually gathering and analyzing market data is incredibly labor intensive. Z2 has allowed our team to react quickly and regularly to early warning signs of supply chain issues.
A BOM assessed once is stale within months. Parts go end-of-life, suppliers slip, and a regulation changes, all while the file sits untouched in a shared drive.
| Topic | Without Z2 | With Z2 |
|---|---|---|
| Obsolescence | Learn a part is EOL after stockout | Flagged before the discontinuance bites |
| BOM analysis | Research each MPN by hand, line by line | Every line enriched and scored on upload |
| Risk re-emerging | A one-time snapshot that quietly decays | Continuous monitoring, alerts when status shifts |
Each MPN in your BOM carries nine layers of intelligence, refreshed as the market moves. This is what a line item looks like once Z2 reads it.

Obsolescence
Roughly 150,000 components reach end-of-life every year, and a large share ship no product change notice at all. Z2 tracks 82K+ of those silent lifecycle changes every year, the ones invisible to teams waiting on a manufacturer email. The lifecycle forecast, a proprietary Z2 algorithm with 90%+ historical accuracy, projects the EOL date before the notice ever lands, so you qualify a replacement while there is still time to qualify one.
Alternates
When a part goes single-source or hits allocation, the clock starts. Z2 pre-maps A/B/C tier form-fit-function alternates to every line, so the replacement list is already there when a disruption hits. Filter the candidates by country of origin, lifecycle status, compliance, and availability, and qualify the one that fits without weeks of manual cross-referencing.
BOM Health
BOM Health rolls every line's lifecycle, compliance, availability, and supplier risk into one aggregate score, navigable from finished product down to subassembly and individual part. You see which products carry the most exposure and which lines are driving it, instead of reading thousands of rows to find the few that matter.
Everything on this page is Part Risk Manager. It is the single tool that reads your BOM, scores every line on lifecycle, compliance, availability, and supplier risk, and keeps monitoring so the risks that surface after the first screen reach you in time to act.
Get Started Free
Drag in any spreadsheet, CSV, or ERP/PLM export. Z2 matches each MPN to the database of 1B+ components and reads the file as-is.
Each part returns lifecycle status, compliance, supplier risk, alternates, and a six-factor risk score. The BOM Health rollup shows where exposure concentrates.
Z2 keeps watching after the first screen. PCN, obsolescence, compliance, and supplier alerts push as status changes, and you export results or send them back to your PLM.
Any spreadsheet, CSV, or ERP/PLM export. Z2 matches each MPN against a database of 1B+ off-the-shelf components covering 1,000+ commodity types. There is no required template or column mapping to set up first.
The forecast uses a proprietary Z2 algorithm and has held above 90% historical accuracy. It projects an EOL date for each part, which matters most for the parts that never get a product change notice. Z2 tracks 82K+ of those silent lifecycle changes every year.
No. Your PLM and ERP hold the BOM structure and revisions. Z2 enriches and monitors what they store: lifecycle forecasting, PCN/PDN feeds, compliance evidence, risk scoring, alternates, and supplier data. Part Risk Manager integrates with PLM systems for two-way BOM management.
After the first screen, Z2 monitors every line continuously. When a part moves to NRND or EOL, a new SVHC is added, a supplier’s risk shifts, or availability tightens, the affected lines are flagged. The BOM stays current instead of decaying into a one-time snapshot.
It is a six-factor composite covering lifecycle, regulatory compliance, technology generation, market availability, and supplier risk. Scores roll up through BOM Health from individual part to subassembly to finished product, so you can see which products carry the most exposure.
The same platform covers the rest of your supply chain risk picture, from sub-tier mapping to compliance.
