Writing the BOM can be a fairly time-consuming process. I recommend getting a student/mentor on that spreadsheet linked about as soon as possible. It is good bookkeeping, and should be updated throughout the build season.

Having said that, in my two years in FRC we've completed our BOM very last minute (at competition our rookie year). Inspectors like to see it and give it a quick once over, so make sure you don't lie. But you can always edit mistakes, and still pass inspection.
