Abstract
Bills of materials (BOMs) are quickly becoming an effective tool for managing supply chain risk. As more BOMs enter circulation, the ability to compare them will be crucial to understanding how products differ and in managing BOMs from different tools or sources. This paper will describe some of the challenges of comparing BOMs followed by a discussion of several comparison methods
