abstract |
Companies that design and manufacture products for a wide range of related applications
need to offer the right product for each use. A platform design strategy allows designing
the product range based on product platforms, where some of the components and systems
are common across the range whereas other components are individual for each product
variant. This paper presents the problems that a company faces when trying to introduce
a platform strategy and outlines a method to find suitable components to be made common.
The method is shown with a simple case. The approach uses fuzzy logic to obtain a
suitable criterion to assess the overall value of the product line and a genetic algorithm
for finding the set of components to be made common |
