So,this is one of the standard templates with the main objective to provide purchase engineers a single glance view of the parts to plan purchasing activity and for project management team to track/monitor the purchasing status of all required parts.

Basically, this is one of the tools of program management which consist of all parts needed to build a final product with details like part level, part number,part name,qty,parts item commodity,make or buy decision, drawing release ,PR,RFQ,PO,PPAP statuses of all parts.
