Italian term or phrase: Distinta componenti di commercio

This is the heading of part of document describing a machine.
Basically it is a part list showing the name of the part, the code, and manufacturer.

So, the list reports the parts/components used by the manufacture to build the machine. I imagine the "di commercio" part is a way to say that the part is bought and not manufactured by the company making the machine.

Is "parts list" or "list of components" enough? Isn't it clear that the company has purchased the product since the list shows the name of the part and its brand as well.
Thanks for any help.

Thanks -- I used this because next to each part it states the manufacturer so it is clear that they were purchased by others.

Io tradurrei così, che è poi il corrispondente di "distinta base". Mi sembra che rispecchi abbastanza bene il tuo caso.

List of purchased components

Explanation:
I think it's better to specify more rather than less. If it didn't need to be specified, wouldn't they simply have written Distinta componenti?
