Customer problem
A mixed BOM requires comparable line-by-line offers and coordinated releases rather than a single total price.
Why it happens
Different packaging quantities, source evidence and lead times can create hidden exceptions across one BOM.
Procurement risks
A low total can obscure substituted suffixes, partial quantities or incompatible packaging for the assembly line.
Verification checklist
For every line record full MPN, manufacturer, quantity, acceptable alternatives, required dates, package form and inspection criteria.
Practical recommendations
Use an exception matrix. Approve each substitution separately and agree shipment grouping, partial delivery and commercial terms in writing.
