setTimeout solves the problem:

 setTimeout(function(){
  $("[id^='requisition_material_items_attributes_'][id$='_item_name_autocomplete']").each(function (){
        $(this).autocomplete({
        minLength: 1,
        source: $(this).data('autocomplete-source'),
        select: function(event, ui) {
            $(this).val(ui.item.value);
        }
      });
    });
  }, 5000);
