Purpose -Traditional production management systems are often designed to support manufacturing based on a limited number of product variants. With the emerging trend of producing customized products to meet diverse customer needs, the number of product variants increases exponentially in mass customization. In a situation of assembly-to-order production, production planning and control involve not only product variety, but also process variety. It is imperative to synchronize product and process variety in a coherent manner. Design/methodology/approach -This paper discusses integrated product and production data management for assembly-to-order production. An integrated BOM and routing generator is proposed for the purpose of unifying BOM and assembly-planning data in order to accommodate a wide range of product variability and production variations. Findings -An integrated BOM and routing generator excels in variety synchronization for assembly-to-order production planning. Research limitations/implications -Variety synchronization opens many opportunities for research into mass customization production. It is important to deal with not only the results of high variety production but also the causes of process variations. Practical implications -The proposed methodology is applicable to manage high variety production like mass customization. Originality/value -The paper proposes the variety synchronization issue in mass customization. An object-oriented methodology is applied to manage variety of BOMs and variety of routings.

High-variety production like mass customization is facing the challenge of effective variety management, which needs to deal with numerous variants of both product and process in order to accommodate diverse customer requirements. To utilize commonality underlying product diversity and process variation, it has been widely accepted as a practice to develop product families, in which a set of similar variants share common product and process structures and variety differentiates within these common structures. Based on such variety implication, this paper proposes a data structure, called generic Bill-of-Materials-and-Operations (BOMO), by unifying Billsof-Materials (BOM) and routing data into a single set in order to synchronize multiple perspectives on variety such as customer ordering, product engineering, and operations planning. A generic structure is accordingly developed for characterizing variety effectively. The merits of the generic BOMO for integrated product and production data management are detailed in terms of order processing, engineering change control, production job planning, cost accounting, as well as integrated material and capacity planning. An implementation of the proposed generic BOMO methodology in customized souvenir clock manufacturing is also reported.
