White Paper - Seven Views, One Product
Contents
Customized products, tight deadlines, rising costs – the pressure on manufacturing companies is mounting. Any company that still relies exclusively on the engineer-to-order approach today risks excessive development costs, long lead times, and dangerous design flaws.
Here’s what you’ll find across eleven pages
Blue World, Green World. Order-neutral product knowledge (KNS) and order-specific processing (TOS) – clearly separated, purposefully linked. This brings order to order-based business.
The MOCRA Principle. Model Once – Configure and Reuse Anywhere: model once, configure, and derive every required bill of materials, instead of rebuilding them from scratch for each department.
A common thread all the way to service. From “as-designed” to “as-maintained,” all states remain connected—including the digital twin, spare parts catalogs, and remanufacturing.
Who Should Read This
This white paper is aimed at decision-makers in engineering, IT, and order processing in the machinery, plant, and complex engineering sectors—anywhere products are configured or designed to customer specifications (CTO, CTO+, ETO) and SAP ERP or S/4HANA is in use. A five-question self-assessment helps you determine where your company stands.
