How do I scrub my BOM? (Accuris partnership)

Eight years ago, getting a BOM priced was the whole job. The bar has moved. The redesigned BOM scrubbing workflow, powered by a deepening Accuris partnership, brings 1.3 billion components, 8,000 manufacturers, and roughly 19 million parts into CalcuQuote every month. Set data priority by field, handle manufacturer acquisitions cleanly, get part change notifications and end-of-life alerts on autopilot, and trust form-fit-function alternates sourced directly from manufacturers.

Key Takeaways


A two-year partnership that keeps deepening

CalcuQuote and Accuris have been formally partnered for about two years, and the integration keeps expanding.

  • Around 40 columns of Accuris data flow into CalcuQuote today
  • That number is climbing as the integration expands into mechanical and fasteners
  • Each new field cuts another step out of the scrubbing workflow

Set your data priority and decide who wins

New in the scrubbing workflow: you choose which data source takes priority, field by field.

  • Give Accuris the win on manufacturer to clean up acquisitions like Motorola to Intersil to Harris
  • Keep your own values for internal part numbers and classifications
  • Mix and match per field, per workflow

 

1.3 billion components, refreshed continuously

Accuris pulls from 8,000 manufacturers and refreshes data sheets nearly every day.

  • 1.3 billion components in the catalogue
  • Roughly 19 million parts updated each month
  • A permanent link means you never get a broken data sheet URL and always see the current revision

Part change notifications and end-of-life alerts on autopilot

Set your refresh interval and CalcuQuote pushes alerts back to your BOM whenever Accuris detects a change.

  • Choose a one, two, or three week refresh cadence
  • End-of-life alerts include recommended alternates plus last-time-buy and last-time-delivery dates
  • Plan the buy or warn the customer before the part disappears

Form-fit-function alternates from validated sources

Accuris sources alternates directly from manufacturers, never from third parties.

  • A roughly 500-person team in India works directly with manufacturers, data sheets, and manufacturer websites
  • Parametrics confirm the fit before the alternate appears in your quote
  • When an alternate flows into a quote, the spec match is trustworthy

Compliance and inventory signal at your fingertips

Everything you need to scrub a line, in one place.

  • RoHS status, compliance flags, and manufacturer taxonomy (capacitors, resistors, microcontrollers)
  • Book pricing from Arrow, DigiKey, Mouser, TTI, Avnet, Newark, and Farnell
  • Obsolete parts covered by partners like Rochester and FLIP
