    I don't see why you're using INDIRECT.

    In your screencap those cells just contain numbers which I assume are supposed to be the column_index_num's.

    See if this does what you want:

    =N$4*VLOOKUP($B5,'BOM MATRIX'!$A$2:$AJ$500,N3,0)

    O_O that works! and yes it is the column_index_num's.

    UPDATE: having trouble populating, jury's still out
    UPDATE: Turns out I forgot to put $ for N3 :P
