Electronic Component BOM Kitting
Send one list, get one consolidated quotation. We confirm availability, pricing, and lead time for each line, and flag shortage lines early.
What BOM Kitting Means Here
Send one list and get one consolidated quotation. You do not need to chase multiple distributors for different lines on the same build. We check each line, confirm current availability, pricing, and lead time, and tell you early when a line is short, allocated, or only available in small quantities.
What to Send
For each line, send part number, quantity, and brand or manufacturer if you know it. Package, target price, and delivery location help us quote faster, but they are optional. If a line is missing a detail, we will ask for it before we quote that line, so the quotation stays accurate.
What You Get Back
A quotation broken down by line, so you can approve some lines and hold others. Each line shows availability, pricing, and lead time at the time of enquiry. Availability and pricing change with market conditions, so every quotation reflects the market at that time.
How a BOM Quotation Works

BOM Format Example
This table shows format only. It is not live stock and not a price list.
| Part Number | Quantity | Brand, if known | Package, if known |
|---|---|---|---|
| Example part number | 1000 | Example brand | Example package |
| Example part number | 500 | Example brand | Example package |
What a Good BOM File Looks Like
Your file does not need a fixed template. The page reads the first sheet only, and it looks for a header row with Part Number and Quantity. If there is no header row, it reads part numbers from the first column and quantities from the second column.
- Part number in one column, quantity in another. Keep each part on its own row, so the list stays clear line by line.
- Brand and package in their own columns, if you have them. These columns are optional, but they help us quote faster and avoid a wrong package.
- One header row is enough. Extra title rows above the header can confuse the reader, so keep the header at the top of the data.
- Notes can go in the message box. Target price, delivery location, and lines that must stay as the original part are best noted in the message box, not hidden in the file.
Partial Availability and Shortage Lines
If only part of your BOM is available, we will say so line by line. You can take the available lines now and keep the shortage lines open, or wait for a complete kit. We do not mark a line as available when it is not, and we do not substitute a part without your approval. If an alternative could work, we present it as an option on the Alternatives basis, with the key parameters for your review.
Traceability
We source original parts through traceable channels, with documentation available on request. If you need lot, date code, or traceability documents for a specific line, tell us in your enquiry and we will confirm what can be provided for that line before you commit.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to send a file to get a BOM quote?
No. Paste your list in the form below, or upload an Excel file and let the page read it into the list. If your list is long, email is also fine.
What Excel format works?
Excel files with extension xlsx or xls, and csv files, all work. The page reads the first sheet only, and it converts the sheet to a text list that is sent with your enquiry. The original file itself is not attached to the email, because the free form service does not support file attachments. If you need to send the original file, email it directly to service@potrgo.com after submitting.
Can I send a BOM with many lines?
Yes. Paste a long list, or upload a file with many rows. The preview below the file input shows how many lines were read, so you can check the count before submitting, and you can edit the list in the text box before submitting.
Can I get one price for the whole BOM?
Yes, the consolidated quotation shows a total, and also a breakdown by line, so you can see where the cost sits and approve lines individually.
What if a line has no stock anywhere?
We will tell you that line is not available at that time, and we can keep checking or look at an approved alternative if you want us to. See also Obsolete Sourcing for discontinued and hard to find parts.
