PLM support for design platforms in industrialized house-building

Purpose The purpose of this research is to support the customization ability for industrial house building companies striving offer individualized products but with a strategy which includes production facility. This accomplished by analyzing as-is state in terms existing engineering assets and proposing to-be using design platform product lifecycle management (PLM) support. Design/methodology/approach study based on methodology collected data are in-depth interviews, document reviews workshops method development. theoretical baseline platforms platform. Findings analysis showed that despite use platform, inherent disorganized. Still, identified object-based were possible include conceptual proposal better management, both process view, an asset relationship matrix PLM system. Practical implications results should be applicable off-site construction offers approach identify manage their crucial stay competitive. Originality/value Previous has focused engineer-to-order within mechanical industry. contribution paper lies application introduction system
