Product Feature
See which components your products share, so a single obsolescence event or supplier failure does not cascade through your portfolio before you can react.
Overview
Multi-BOM Risk Comparison lines up every BOM in your account against the same risk model, then surfaces the components they share. A capacitor in one product is a footnote; the same part across nine products is concentration risk that turns one discontinuation notice into a portfolio-wide problem. You see where that exposure lives, rank it by lifecycle stage and supplier, and brief leadership from a single portfolio view instead of reconciling spreadsheets per product.
The heatmap maps every part against every BOM that uses it, so a component buried in a dozen products stops hiding inside individual part lists. You see at a glance which parts carry the widest blast radius, and you can sort by reuse count to find the single discontinuation that would touch the most revenue. A part-to-product map like this turns scattered BOMs into one picture of where your obsolescence and supply exposure actually concentrate.
Put any set of BOMs next to each other and compare their risk on the same axes: lifecycle health, parts flagged end-of-life or NRND, single-sourced components, and restricted-substance exposure. Because all BOMs score against the same lifecycle forecasts and supplier signals, the comparison is apples to apples, not one team's risk rubric against another's. You can see which product line is most fragile and which is clean, then aim engineering effort where it changes the most.
Narrow the comparison to a risk threshold, a lifecycle stage, a manufacturer, or a country of origin, so a portfolio review answers the question you actually have. Filter to parts that are end-of-life and shared across three or more products to size your most urgent last-time-buy decisions, or to a single manufacturer to gauge concentration before a supplier event hits. The portfolio-level summary that results is ready to hand to supply chain and executive leadership without rework.
Multi-BOM Risk Comparison is one capability inside Part Risk Manager, Z2's component risk platform. Every BOM in the view draws on the same data that powers lifecycle forecasting, PCN monitoring, supplier risk, and compliance screening, so the cross-product exposure you find here is already scored for obsolescence and supply risk. When a part's lifecycle status or a supplier's risk changes, the comparison reflects it, so your portfolio view stays current as the market moves.

Common Questions
It maps shared components across all your BOMs, so a part used in many products shows up as cross-product exposure. One discontinuation notice on that part can stall multiple product lines, and the comparison surfaces it before that happens.
Yes. Every BOM scores against the same lifecycle forecasts and supplier risk signals, so the comparison is apples to apples. You can see which product line is most fragile and which is clean from one view.
Yes. Filter by risk threshold, lifecycle stage, manufacturer, or country of origin to isolate, for example, end-of-life parts shared across multiple products, then export a portfolio summary for leadership.
