Bill of Materials (BOM) Software for Production Costing
Standardize recipes and assembly kits. Accurately calculate raw material requirements and determine product costs before you start production.
What is a Bill of Materials (BOM) in accounting software?
A Bill of Materials (BOM) is an itemized formula of raw materials, components, and assemblies needed to manufacture a finished product, along with the precise quantities and costs required for each component.
What Likhtam delivers for this workflow.
Real features engineered for real business operations, not generic templates.
Scalable Production Batches
Set up a master BOM for 1 unit or 1,000 units; production quantities scale component requirements proportionally.
Component Cost Rolled Up
Real-time component purchase prices roll up into the finished good cost so you always know current production expenses.
Packaging & Consumables Tracking
Include boxes, tape, bottles, and labels in the BOM so packaging is never unaccounted for in inventory or margins.
Prevent Stock Bottlenecks
Check raw material availability before initiating manufacturing to avoid stalled assembly lines.

How it works from start to finish.
A clear, step-by-step process designed to keep your books completely balanced.
Create Finished Item
Define your finished catalog product and designate it as an assembled/manufactured good.
Add Component Items
Select raw materials from your catalog and specify standard consumption ratios.
Add Overhead & Scrap Factors
Factor in average percentage scrap or additional processing costs.
Produce & Deplete Automatically
Execute builds with one tap to deplete component stock and replenish finished goods.
Designed specifically for:
- Fabricators and assembly operations creating packaged goods
- Food and beverage producers tracking standard recipe formulations
- Electronics and equipment manufacturers managing multi-component assemblies
Factual questions, straight answers.
Clear details about Likhtam's capabilities, offline support, and compliance.
Yes. While the master BOM provides the standard template, you can adjust actual component quantities or substitute materials on individual manufacturing batches.
Yes. You can manufacture a sub-assembly first (e.g. PCB board) and then use that sub-assembly as a raw component in the final product BOM.
