What is a Manufacturing Bill of Materials (MBOM)?

The product code, part name, part number, part revision, description, quantity, unit of measure, size, length, weight, and specifications or characteristics of the product are all listed on each line of the bill of materials (BOM).

A manufacturing BOM contains all the parts and assemblies required to build a complete and shippable product. It typically provides information on how parts are related to each other and how the finished product is structured. An engineering BOM, on the other hand, is organized according to MCAD/EDA tools and represents the physical product being “engineered,” not the packaging or manufacturing consumables.
