For automotive manufacturers, material compliance is becoming harder to manage. A single vehicle can contain around 10,000 parts, sourced from hundreds of suppliers across multiple countries. Each part has to be checked against internal engineering data, supplier declarations, and an expanding set of regulatory requirements. When those records do not align, the work quickly becomes manual and time-consuming.
That was the situation facing one of the world's leading car manufacturers. Working with Mimacom, the company transformed a process that previously took days of cross-referencing into one that can now be completed in around 2.5 hours. The solution also automates up to 80% of design-to-supplier data reconciliation.
The more interesting part is what sits behind those numbers. The project brings together engineering data, supplier material declarations, regulatory information, and AI-assisted analysis in one platform. That gives teams a clearer picture of where discrepancies exist and where attention is needed, without manually checking thousands of components one by one.
Faster compliance analysis is only part of the outcome. The manufacturer also gets a stronger basis for responding to regulatory change, identifying supply chain exposure, and managing material data across the vehicle lifecycle.
