Many capital good firms deliver products that are not strictly one-off, but instead share a certain degree of similarity with other deliveries. In the delivery of the product, they aim to balance stability and variety in their product design and processes. The issue of engineering change plays an important in how they manage to do so. Our aim is to gain more understanding into how capital good firms manage engineering change, design variety and process variety, and into the role of the product delivery strategies they thereby use. Product delivery strategies are defined as the type of engineering work that is done independent of an order and the specification freedom the customer has in the remaining part of the design. Based on the within-case and cross-case analysis of two capital good firms several mechanisms for managing engineering change, design variety and process variety are distilled. It was found that there exist different ways of (1) managing generic design information, (2) isolating large engineering changes, (3) managing process variety, (4) designing and executing engineering change processes. Together with different product delivery strategies these mechanisms can be placed within an archetypes framework of engineering change management. On one side of the spectrum capital good firms operate according to open product delivery strategies, have some practices in place to investigate design reuse potential, isolate discontinuous engineering changes into the first deliveries of the product, employ 'probe and learn' process management principles in order to allow evolving insights to be accurately executed and have informal engineering change processes. On the other side of the spectrum capital good firms operate according to a closed product delivery strategy, focus on prevention of engineering changes based on design standards, need no isolation mechanisms for discontinuous engineering changes, have formal process management practices in place and make use of closed and formal engineering change procedures. The framework should help managers to (1) analyze existing configurations of product delivery strategies, product and process designs and engineering change management and (2) reconfigure any of these elements according to a 'misfit' derived from the framework. Since this is one of the few in-depth empirical studies into engineering change management in the capital good sector, our work adds to the understanding on the various ways in which engineering change can be dealt with.

“…Configuration management and variant design of product family can be achieved by master model technology provided by three-dimensional CAD platform. In this paper, complex product variant master model is divided into four parts: product family GBOM (Generic Bill of Materials) structure [5], product 3D master model, product variant parameters transferring structure and product information master model [6].…”

Abstract. Design resources reuse is very important to the rapid response design. In this paper, a design resources reusable model based on product family is established to meet the rapid response design. Firstly, parameters transmission structure of product family is constructed based on Generic Bill of Materials (GBOM) and product master model, and then the reused design resource library is established by the instantiation to master model. Finally product configuration management and variant design is realized on the basis of the reused design resource library. In the developing process of the rapid response design system of machine tool component, the Linear Motion (LM) rolling guide variant design subsystem is developed by the application of the above methods to realize the variant design and configuration management of LM rolling guide. The result shows that the method can provide a reliable guarantee for establishment and effective management of corporate design resource base.

“…The academic contribution and both the opportunities and challenges related to these lists is significant (Choi, Dooley, & Rungtusanatham, 2001;Giménez, Vegetti, Leone, & Henning, 2008;Li, Yang, Sun, Ji, & Feng, 2010;Pathak, Dilts, & Mahadevan, 2009;Vegetti, Leone, & Henning, 2011;Vidal & Goetschalckx, 1997;Yan, Yu, & Cheng, 2003). Despite the discussion about the use of the BOM in inter companies relationships, in the SCMap model the list is considered only as a means of determining relationships between two classifications of products: 1) the products which companies provide to the market, or "top products" (Hegge & Wortmann, 1991) and, 2) the products which these companies acquire from the market in order to produce the former, or "primary products" (Hegge & Wortmann, 1991). Processes and production methods as well as intermediate products resulting from different stages of the inside company manufacturing process, also called "subassemblies" (Hegge & Wortmann, 1991) are not part of the scope.…”

ABSTRACT:Although frequently used interchangeably, the concepts of supply chain and production chain are considered in this study as two distinct and complementary theoretical frameworks for the conception of a data-mapping model titled SCMap -Supply Chain Map. The model's objective is to identify and assess real chains of companies and products. An application in the agribusiness sector, starting with a specific sugarcane processing plant and the biofuel ethanol is performed. The SCMap establishes a structured and integrated manner of linking products and companies, considering three different categories of relationships: (1) between companies -supply chain approach; (2) between products -production chain approach, and; (3) between companies and products -regarding commercial practices in the corporate environment. Grounded on Graph Theory and Social Network Analysis -SNA, the software UCINET and NetDraw application are used to draw the maps and quantitatively assess the centrality of each company and product relative to the whole chain.
