What is a Bill of Materials (BOM)?

by Ivan on May 18, 2009

We’ve been talking about Bill of Materials alot here recently, mostly as we finished user guides for a SAP project that involved BOM. Kathleen Fasanella describes Bill of Materials (BOM) as a “list of inputs that go into your product. If the sketch sheet was a broad overview of the style itself, the BOM is specific about the materials. Not only is it specific about each input, it is specific per colorway”

 

In other words, if you have three colorways, you will need a BOM for each color. Perhaps you could think of a BOM as a list of ingredients. If it is not on the BOM, it doesn’t go into the product.
