SD;
I appreciate your question and will answer it to the best of my ability.
A BOM or Bill of Material is generated at the completion of design. If the client company supplies all materials to a project, they would place purchase orders for the material, receive it into inventory then, issue those materials to the contractors selected. If the contractor is providing a full turnkey service then, after design, the BOM would also be reduced to vendor purchase orders, the materials would be received into inventory then, issued by truck, crew, node, map page etc. allowing for the tracking of installed materials.
To answer your question diretly, the BOM is a function of design and therefore generated from the design material specifications. The program I described kicks in after design and will generate the purchase orders, receive the materials into inventory, track the issues of materials daily then, reconcile materials on demand. If both the client and contractor is supplying materials to a project, when you set-up the materials in the parameters section of the program, you may code each item as to ownership. The program will track all material usage and invoice for only the materials coded as contractor owned.
I hope I have answered your question.
