Product Readiness Workspace - Analyze BOM risk and grading
Use Oracle Fusion Claw with the BOM Risk and Grading Analyzer in Product Readiness Workspace to assess component risk while developing your product. Fusion Claw evaluates the item structure based on the design goals defined in the agentic application. It also evaluates business conditions in accordance with your organization’s risk policies to determine the structure’s risk profile and overall grade.
It assesses risk across five dimensions:
- Lifecycle: Identifies component lifecycle exposure that could affect the design or its planned support period.
- Sourcing: Evaluates supply concentration, lead times, inventory coverage, and qualified sourcing options.
- Compliance: Identifies compliance risks and gaps in supporting evidence.
- Quality: Evaluates qualification gaps, test results, and quality issues that could affect readiness.
- Cost: Evaluates cost exposure and the economics of potential mitigations.
Fusion Claw aggregates policy violations across the entire item structure, including subassemblies and leaf components, and assigns an overall grade, such as A, B, C, D, or F, to summarize the product’s risk profile.
While the overall grade provides a quick summary, Fusion Claw enforces your organization’s mandatory requirements. Critical compliance or quality violations block the product from moving forward.
This feature benefits your business by the following:
- Identify risk early: Uncover component risks during product development when there's more flexibility to address them.
- Improve readiness decisions: Use an overall risk grade, supported by assessments across five dimensions, to determine where action is needed.
- Strengthen compliance and quality controls: Prevent products with critical policy violations from moving forward.
- Prioritize mitigation efforts: Focus on risks across subassemblies and components, and evaluate the cost of potential mitigations.
Steps to enable and configure

Tips and considerations
- You must update the policy template to define:
- Planning horizon
- Dimension weights
- Grade scale
- You must create extensible flexfields for the five dimensions:
- Lifecycle
- Sourcing
- Compliance
- Quality
- Cost
- You must analyze the structure before asking questions about its risk and grade.
- The app identifies compliance documentation by reading the file names of MPN attachments. If no attachment file name contains compliance certification, the app indicates that the item is missing compliance documentation.
