What is MBOM?

MBOM stands for Manufacturing Bill of Materials. It's a comprehensive list of all the parts, assemblies, and sub-assemblies required to manufacture a finished product. Unlike an Engineering Bill of Materials (EBOM), which focuses on the design perspective, the MBOM is structured from a manufacturing and assembly perspective. It includes details such as required materials, manufacturing processes, tooling, and equipment needed to produce the product. MBOMs are crucial for planning, production scheduling, cost estimation, and overall manufacturing execution.
