Lifecycle & EOL Management
Keep your product shipping for years with controlled BOMs, proactive EOL planning, and vetted alternates — without last-minute surprises.
Plan for Change — Before It Happens
Component lifecycles, supply volatility, and regulatory shifts can derail production. We manage product configuration and roadmaps with proactive notifications and qualified alternates so you can maintain continuity and avoid costly redesigns.
Capabilities
- Controlled BOMs with lifecycle status tracking
- PCNs and alternate proposals with validation plans
- Last-time buy strategies and stock buffering options
- Image and configuration revision control aligned to hardware changes
- Long-life component selection and second-source strategies
- Sustaining engineering for field issues and iterative improvements
At a Glance
- Deliverables: Lifecycle plan, PCNs, alternates with validation scope, image/config revision mapping.
- Who it's for: OEMs needing long-term shipment continuity without redesign churn.
- Lead times: Initial assessment 1–2 weeks; validation timelines depend on alternates.
- Documentation: BOM lifecycle status, PCN log, last-time buy strategy, revision history.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long can you keep the same configuration shipping?
Our goal is shipment continuity for years: long-life component selection, controlled BOMs, and second-source strategies. When a part goes end-of-life, validated alternates or last-time buys keep the configuration shipping without redesign.
How will we find out when a component changes?
You receive product change notifications (PCNs) with proposed alternates and a validation plan before anything changes in your build.
What happens to our software image when hardware changes?
Image and configuration revisions are tracked against hardware changes, so a validated image exists for every shipping revision.
What does lifecycle management cost?
Lifecycle management is included at no additional cost on ADEK-built systems.

We'll assess risk on key components and recommend alternates with validation scope.
