Oracle Configurator Critical Success Factors
Consider the following when staffing your Oracle Configurator project:
- In the Oracle ERP system, the Bill of Material (BOM) drives component demand, manufacturing process flows, and material planning.

Column: 2
Designing the BOM is more important – and often harder – than writing rules in the Oracle Configurator Developer (OCD).
You need a Configurator developer with experience designing BOMs. This is definitely not a programming task!
