Definition Explained
Basically, a bill of material (BOM) is a complete list of the components making up an object or assembly. It is also part of material requirements planning (MRP) input.
Types of BOMs
A bill of material for a part that is normally made from the same components, labor and raw materials. Used for standard assemblies, components, and engineer-to-order customer orders.
Example:
Types of BOMs
A bill of material for a product or part for which size, color, laminate, and other options can be selected.
Example:
Structure of a BOM
Quantity Item ID# Description of Item Cost of Item Total Project Cost
Quantity
Tells user how many of each part is needed for each project
Example:
10
Item ID #
Example:
The chair needs a 2PC seat, 5DR legs, 6TU8 back, and 1 inch nails.

Description of Item
12
Cost of Item
Cost is included to show how much each part is per item and the total cost of all like parts.
Example:
The cost of a leg is $5 per leg. Then the total price of the legs ordered would be $20 because there are 4 legs.
13
Shows the total cost of all items and is also the total cost of the direct materials used in the project.
Example:
Seat-$10, Back-$5, Leg-$5 per leg, Nail-$.5 per nail Total Cost of a chair = 10 + 5 + 5*4 + .5*5 = $37.50
