Product Configurator
by Intech Systems Pvt Ltd.
Customizing a product to meet the needs of a particular customer based on Pre-devised set of options
Product Configurator represents one of the most successful applications of artificial intelligence principles. The use of Product Configurator has resulted in many positive effects such as reduced lead times, fewer errors, shorter learning periods for new employees, etc. in engineering-oriented companies.
Product Configurator enhances communication, increases control over production, reduces chances of human error, and helps identify product modularity even for manufacturing with high design complexity. Most importantly, it addresses the highly effective strategy of quick response manufacturing i.e., shortening the order to ship time from days and weeks to hours.
Product Configurator is designed to accommodate the needs of assemble‐to‐order, make‐to‐order, repetitive, and even some engineer‐to‐order manufacturers.
