CONFIGURE TO ORDER PRODUCTS
It is a method of manufacturing which allows the customer, to choose a base
product at the moment of ordering and then configure all the variable
parameters associated with that product from defined options.
Based on these selections, configurable items on each order typically generates
the unique product configuration based on various features and options.

Product Upper Structure Manage high level functional product structures
Navigation clustering
 high level navigation node for product/ subsystem
 to manage key information about the navigation node (targets,
responsibilities, etc.) or location
Function clustering
 Representation of a function or sub-function for a vehicle
 Each end node has at least one implementation (Variant or
module) of the function to satisfy the function
Manage Implementation of the targets
Variant clustering
 A solution to support the function or a function choice
Design implementation
 A modular design solution to meet the requirement

CONFIGURE TO ORDER: TECHNICAL COMMUNICATION
CHALLENGES
• Technical Documentation Time to Market: Sequential approach, TD
starts at the very end
• Difficult access to Service Information : Service Information Stored in
different Systems, Engineering Data, Configurations, Service
BOM,Paper, Web…
• Technical Documentation doesn’t reflect the product configuration
• Content Reuse

BRINGING THE GAP BETWEEN ENGINEERING AND TECHNICAL
COMMUNICATION
Inefficient, manual transfer of information
(drain on engineering resources)
Time consuming and significant graphical editing
required after export from design tools
Design changes when communicated require
manual updates to publications (often complete
rework)
Tech Pubs process is delayed until all designs are
complete in order to avoid changes
Publications not updated to reflect current product
Insufficient data exchange
Disconnected processes
for creation and revision
