Increasing product complexity is creating new challenges for companies. Development and validation costs are skyrocketing, complexity in production, purchasing, logistics, and spare parts management is causing immense costs. At the same time, volumes and margins are declining.

This complexity can be effectively managed through modularization and standardization. The session will present methods, practical examples, effects and supporting software solutions that can be seamlessly integrated into PLM systems. Modular systems can thus be managed consistently throughout their lifecycle.
