BOM
Bill of Materials
A Bill of Materials (BOM) is the engineering and operational specification of a manufactured product — the hierarchical list of components, sub-assemblies, raw materials, and quantities required to produce one finished unit. BOMs drive material requirements planning (MRP), procurement, costing, and production scheduling.
Types include: Engineering BOM (EBOM) as designed; Manufacturing BOM (MBOM) as built (including consumables, packaging); Sales BOM for configurable products. Multi-level BOMs (parent → sub-assemblies → components) are essential for complex products.
