My promise in my abstract Keywords: supplychain improvement, concurrent design of supplychain and product architecture, your down to earth first actions, smart customization Your first actions Most businesses are about serving their customers well in an efficient manner. The key is in the combination of the different customer demands and design a combined product architecture and supplychain. This serves the different customer demands as well as the internal demands. In this presentation you will learn what product architecture is, why it is important to handle high customer diversity well and how it improves your supplychain performance. Most important lesson: design your product and supplychain in one go. Do this with a focus on the customer (diversity) demand and your company s business performance. More and more companies are discovering this as a key element in their net step in improvement. Eamples are machine builders or manufacturers of consumer goods. Common key characteristic of these companies is the high end-diversity they deliver: each customer receives a different machine or product. Often these companies strive for standardization to handle the diversity. However, the end result of good architecture projects is: increased diversity for the customer, a more easy and efficient supplychain with highly improved performance of the business as a whole. These projects use different terminology: mass customization, configure to order, smart customization, product architecture, modular product buildup and modularity. This presentation will introduce these different terms. How others did this What they changed This presentation will introduce both the how these companies did this as well as eamples of what they changed and how much it delivered them. How much it delivered them Importance of high customer diversity

How: Paradigm shifts Often encountered Good for business Decrease diversity in portfolio Increase diversity in portfolio Product standardization Supplychain standardization Engineer: function design Conflicting interests between departments Focus for whole supplychain: costs & deliverytime Integrated development through the chain Departments share same goal: Business Performance Split supplychain in separate parts for cost focus & delivery time focus

Question Do you always deliver the eact same product to each customer? Why yes / no?
Which one do you prefer of these? This one? Or one of these? Diversity will sell more! (provided it is equal @price, @quality, @availability etc.)
Question Do you want standardization in production processes processing order Supplier choice Used parts Why yes / no?
Supplychain standardization Supplychain standardization delivers efficiency! lowers costs, improves quality, reduces delivery time
Question Does engineering itself add costs or value? Why?
Engineering focus? Original: realise technical function Added: Engineer the chain? Marketing Purchasing After sales Service Logistics Manufactu Assembly Design Quality Distribution Traditionally engineering focuses on creating the technical function The rest of the chain however highly determines costs, quality & delivery time
Product architecture adds costs Product architecture: building blocks & interfaces Smart high payed professional Thinking: $$$ Drawing: $$$
Supplychain late CODP: low costs & short delivery time Demand SPEC SPEC Delivery Supplychain: Add diversity late codp codp Customer diversity => sales value Product: Split diversity features from the rest of your product High inventory (costs) or long delivery time FOCUS: Efficiency, costs FOCUS: fast delivery

Change does not happen overnight today I often came home with lots of ideas and inspiration after a seminar like today
Change does not happen overnight today tomorrow Back at the office the daily hassle waited for me
It s time for you to make the first step in change What is your first action? Put in your agenda, no matter how small, but make the first step And. In the agenda for the time-slot, the last point is what is my net step?
