Bill of Materials
What is a Bill of Materials?
A Bill of Materials (BOM) is a comprehensive list of all components, parts, materials, and quantities required to manufacture or assemble an electronic device or circuit. It serves as a master reference document that includes part numbers, descriptions, quantities, and often supplier information for each component. BOMs are essential for procurement, manufacturing planning, cost estimation, and ensuring that all necessary parts are available for production or repair.
