Understanding E-BOM and M-BOM: Key Tools for Production Planning and Material Sourcing
While the engineering bill-of-material (E-BOM) is the as-designed functional view of a product created during development, the manufacturing bill-of-material (M-BOM) as one of its derivatives shows a specific product view used for global production planning (as-planned) and material sourcing purposes representing aspects like:
- In-process-assemblies
- Make or buy sourcing decisions
- Multi-location support for manufacturing planning
- Product and process costing
