For product managers who want their margin known before launch and protected after it

Electronics can be half of a product’s cost, and it’s the part that changes most after launch. Luminovo costs the BOM in the concept phase, checks lifecycle and compliance at the same time, and re-prices the product whenever the market moves.

What other engineering teams say

“Knowing your electronics costs only after the fact is like building a house and finding out the price of the foundation after the roof is on.”

Your business case runs on a ballpark number

The real cost arrives after design freeze, when changing it is expensive.
A part goes end of life while the product is still selling, and the redesign eats the margin you planned.
Part prices move after launch, while your price and margin stay on last year’s numbers.

How you keep your margin

Hit your target cost while the design can change

Cost each BOM revision against the target and see which parts push the product over.

Plan the product’s life around its parts

See which parts end before your product does, and decide early between a last-time buy and a redesign.

See when the cost moves away from the business case

Re-cost the BOM at today’s prices and see which parts moved and what it means at your volume.

Price custom variants in minutes

Change the BOM for a customer request and get cost, lifecycle and compliance for the variant before you answer.

Customer story

R&D budgets set on real costs, in the concept phase

Leuze · Manufacturer · sensors for industrial automation · 1,500+ employees

At Leuze, electronics manufacturing is roughly half of the product cost, and that cost decides the return on a new development. It used to be known only after design. Now it’s available within a day, with lifecycle and compliance checked on import, so management approves R&D budgets on real numbers.

17%lower production cost found in one re-evaluation

“In the past, precise cost calculations often weren’t finalized until the product design was complete. Only then would we uncover lifecycle issues, compliance gaps, or pricing discrepancies. Today, we see all of this at the touch of a button before the project even begins.”
