| Summary: | Mass customization has become a novel trend in the manufacturing of products as it offers high product flexibility to customers. As a result, producers of such products have to cope with incresing demands on manufacturing and related complexity management. This paper aims to develop so called configuration complexity measure to determine the extent of mass-customized production variety. Product configuration complexity scale has been also developed in order to assess concurrent product architecturs based on the offered variety extent for their product. The method presented in this paper is a useful method with minimum input data required and with important output information for product decision-makers. |
