Re: Weight for the BOM

Weight is not required for the BOM. Weight IS required for the inspection.

You need cost correctly calculated - see FIRST Rules as they apply to smallest quantity punchable. In some cases if the item is only available in say a 4 ft x 8ft sheet you MUST account for the entire sheet even you only used 1 inch. This is a consideration when building the robot and selecting materials.

Also note any Speed controllers above the kit amount must also be calculated in the total cost of the robot.

Read the rules.

Inspectors like it when you provide a NEAT excel spreadsheet, as it shows accuracy and thought. What is really a mess is a BOM written on a scrap piece of paper or the team that has a BOM but it is electronic and they have no printer.
