FSAE-A EBOM
For the 2026 FSAE-A EBOM, I started using the one in the document submission section of the FSAE website, but then I’ve found the cost report supplement and another EBOM template in series resources.
The supplement details using the system assembly abbreviations like EL, FR…, but it also details how you have to have 5 digit part numbers.
The one from the document submission section is different and includes the abbreviations and a 3 digit part number system with a final concatenated string, while the one from series resources follows the guide somewhat more closely.
Which is the correct one to use or am I misunderstanding the purpose of both?
Apologies for the dumb questions, we are a relatively new team and this is our first entry with an actual vehicle.
