Bill of Materials Software That Keeps Components and Production Connected
Stock I T gives manufacturers a practical way to build and maintain bills of materials, manage component quantities and wastage, organise finished-item details and connect BOMs with the wider inventory and manufacturing workflow.
Build BOMs
Create structured bills of materials using the materials and items already held in Stock I T.
Component Quantities
Record the quantity required for each component together with wastage percentages and notes.
Product or Standalone BOMs
Use BOMs linked to normal products or maintain standalone BOMs when a separate product record is not required.
Reuse Existing Structures
Copy components from an existing BOM to speed up the creation of similar assemblies or recipes.
Keep the recipe for every manufactured item in one place
A bill of materials is the link between what you make and the materials needed to make it. Stock I T keeps that structure alongside the same product and inventory information used throughout the rest of the system.
Each BOM can hold finished-item information, a version number, unit of measure, standard run time and manufacturing notes, while individual component lines carry the quantities, wastage and notes needed to describe the build.
BOM management that works with your inventory
Choose components from your existing item library
Search and filter active materials and items by name, SKU, product type or category, then add the required components to the BOM. This keeps the BOM tied to the same item records used by purchasing and inventory.
Use BOMs as part of manufacturing
Product-linked BOMs can support manufacturing requirements and sit alongside manufacturing plans, jobs and stock-control workflows, giving the production side of the business a clearer connection to the inventory behind it.
Flexible enough for different kinds of manufacturing
Not every manufacturer builds the same way. A BOM might represent an engineered assembly, a food recipe, a pump, a packaged product or another repeatable combination of materials and components.
Stock I T supports both product-linked and standalone BOM structures, helping businesses model the way they actually work instead of forcing every BOM into the same setup.
Bring existing BOM information into Stock I T
Stock I T includes CSV-based BOM import tools with field mapping for BOM headers and component information, making it easier to bring structured manufacturing data into the system without having to rebuild every BOM manually.
Common questions
What does BOM mean in manufacturing?
BOM stands for Bill of Materials. It describes the components or materials required to make a finished item or assembly.
Can Stock I T record wastage on BOM components?
Yes. Each BOM component can hold its required quantity, wastage percentage and notes.
Does every BOM need to be linked to a product?
No. Stock I T supports both normal product-linked BOMs and standalone BOMs where the Product link can remain empty.
Can I copy an existing BOM?
Stock I T can copy component lines from one BOM into another while skipping components that are already present in the target BOM.
Can BOMs be imported from a CSV file?
Yes. Stock I T includes CSV import and column-mapping tools for BOM information and component details.
