Advantages of Standardization
Fewer parts to deal with in inventory & manufacturing Design costs are generally lower
Orders fillable from inventory Opportunities for long production runs and automation Need for fewer parts justifies increased expenditures on perfecting designs and improving quality control procedures.
Mass Customization
Mass customization:
A strategy of producing standardized goods or services, but incorporating some degree degree of customization Delayed differentiation Modular design
Delayed Differentiation
Producing but not quite completing a product or service until customer preferences or specifications are known
Modular Design
Modular design is a form of standardization in which component parts are subdivided into modules that are easily replaced or interchanged. It allows:
Idea Generation
Supply chain based
Ideas
Competitor based
Research based
Reverse Engineering
Reverse engineering is the dismantling and inspecting of a competitors product to discover product improvements.
Manufacturability
Concurrent Engineering
Concurrent engineering is the bringing together of engineering design and manufacturing personnel early in the design phase.
Computer-Aided Design
Service Design
Service Design
The physical resources needed The goods that are purchased or consumed by the customer Explicit services Implicit services
