You Can’t Say BOM on an Airplane
This is part two of the earlier "Baby, it's the BOM" post and covers what content should be in the Bill of Material (BOM) for electronic contract manufacturing (CM). Most contract manufacturers specialize in adapting to a customers way of doing things, including your BOM format. If the CM makes too many demands about BOM format and content it may be a red flag. I for one have never been an advocate of forcing customers to adapt to the contract manufacturer documentation system. Having said that, it doesn't relieve the customer of responsibility of BOM quality, BOMs written on a cocktail napkin are generally frowned upon, even by me.
Baby, it’s the BOM
The importance of the Bill of Material (BOM) can’t be stressed enough in the electronic contract manufacturing (ECM) world. The BOM needs to be thought of as the “bible” of product manufacturing, with authority over all people and other documents, lesser documents bow in presence of the BOM.
