For generating a bill of materials and a corresponding bill of processes for a product, a natural language processing module maps at least one document specifying a product into a latent representation, which is an embedding in latent space. A bill of materials generator receives the latent representation as input and generates a bill of materials for the product. A user interface detects user interactions with the generated bill of materials and creates a curated bill of materials depending on the user interactions. A bill of processes generator receives the latent representation and the curated bill of materials as input and constructs a bill of processes for the product. The method and system, or at least some of their embodiments, provide semi-automatic generation of the bill of materials and bill of processes for a product, using an AI engine. Compared to manually setting up a bill of materials and / or bill of processes within a software-system, the approach of using AI for generating this information can significantly speed up the process of calculating costs and sustainability values of a product. In this way the time from request for quotation until submitting the actual offer can be lowered significantly.

The system and method for guiding an Artificial Intelligence (AI) engine to automate the quality control process for generating quotes. The quote generation process involves receiving quote requests from a customer relationship management (CRM) system or a data structure entry point. Moreover, retrieving quote data associated with the quote request from data sources, including a CRM platform, via application programming interfaces (APIs) triggered by the submission of the quote request. Furthermore, the prompts are generated by a prompt generator to guide the AI engine in validating the retrieved quote data. The prompts are then transferred to the AI engine for validation, a process that involves analyzing the quote data against predefined rules and conditions, such as price structures, terms, and conditions. Subsequently, a quality control result is generated based on the validation, indicating whether the quote passes or fails the validation process.

To generate a bill of materials (BOM) and a corresponding routing list for a product, a natural language processing module (NLP-M) maps at least one product-specifying document into a latent representation (LR), which is embedded in the latent space. A BOM generator (BOM-G) receives the latent representation (LR) as input and generates a BOM (BOM-TR) for the product. A user interface (UI) captures user interactions with the generated BOM (BOM-TR) and creates a curated BOM (BOM-C) based on these interactions. A routing list generator (BOP-G) receives the latent representation (LR) and the curated BOM (BOM-C) as input and constructs a routing list (BOP-DAG) for the product.The method and the system, or at least some of their embodiments, provide for the semi-automatic generation of the bill of materials (BOM) and the work plan for a product using an AI engine. Compared to manually creating a BOM and / or a work plan within a software system, using AI to generate this information can significantly accelerate the process of calculating a product's costs and sustainability values. This can substantially reduce the time from request for quotation to the submission of the actual quotation.
