Product standardization is a technique in engineering design that aim to reduce the number of different parts within a product. The benefits are:
The supply chain costs are simple to reason:
Product platforms are enabled through:
The product design process becomes faster because:
- standardized parts can be pulled from an engineering database
- already standardized parts do not need to be designed again
Standards
Standardization can occur through two ways
