Abstract:

A material management system and method for utilizing components from an existing manufacturing line to configure a predetermined manufacturing line is provided. The system and method includes an inventory, and an interface. The inventory is stored in a database and includes a list of components of existing manufacturing lines. A first processor is in communication with the database. The interface is operable to transmit information relating to the predetermined manufacturing line to the first processor so as to generate a list having all of the components needed to configure the predetermined manufacturing line. The first processor is further operable to process the inventory and identify all components in the inventory which are compatible for use in the predetermined manufacturing line and generate a list of compatible components. The interface is operable to selectively choose any component from the list of compatible components for use in the predetermined manufacturing line.
