🚀 Struggling with Product Complexity? Discover the Power of Modular Design! Industrial businesses are under more pressure than ever to stay competitive. If your team is drowning in paperwork, redoing designs for every order, or facing delays with customer documents—modularisation can change everything. Here's how: 🔄 Reuse Across Departments: - Engineers reuse pre-defined components across designs, reducing up to 90% of engineering effort. - Production teams receive consistent documents every time—no more starting from scratch. - Quality control becomes easier—most checks are needed only for the first product. 📄 Save Time with Client-Facing Documents: - Sales proposals are faster, built from ready-made modules, keeping things consistent with production. - Product specifications can be easily tailored to customer needs—without reinventing the wheel. - Manuals and instructions are generated automatically, providing customers with accurate, clear information. ⚙️ Smart Customisation Without Disruptions: - Avoid customising too early—adding unique features at the start complicates everything. - Integrate customisations late in the process to maintain production flow. - Use modular designs to add custom elements smoothly, ensuring both efficiency and flexibility. 📈 The Results? Faster proposals, fewer errors, more productivity, and happier customers. It's a win-win situation that balances standardisation with flexibility, boosting both efficiency and satisfaction. 💡 Is Modularisation Right for Your Business?

Curious About How to Establish a Modular Product Structure? It may sound complex, but there are three clear steps that can guide you. In this video, Thijs Schepman, Managing Director of Modular5, breaks it down: 1️⃣ Start with your market and its requirements. Understand the global market demands and pinpoint the difference between what the market needs and what individual clients want. 2️⃣ Next, move to the functional design of your architecture. Define the functions your product must fulfill—not technical solutions yet, but how your product will meet future market needs. 3️⃣ Finally, develop your modular architecture and interfaces. This is where it gets technical: translating functions into modular concepts, and ensuring they connect through standardized interfaces. This allows for a plug-and-play architecture, easily expandable for future market needs. Want to know more? Go to our website to schedule a call with Thijs directly.

Unlock Hidden Cash in Your Operations! 💡 Did you know modular design can free up money stuck in your business? It’s like using Lego blocks—standard parts that build many products. Instead of making each item from scratch, you reuse these modules. This helps companies that: • Make complex products in small amounts. • Handle lots of different product types. • Face high costs and tough competition. By adopting modular design, you can: • Keep fewer parts in stock, saving space and money. • Speed up production with familiar modules. • Save more by buying standard parts in bulk. Plus, you’ll waste less, plan better, and make customers happier. Curious to see how this works? 👉 Visit our website to read the latest blog post and discover how to unlock your company’s full potential! #Framework #Modular #operations #Sales #productdesign #industry -+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+- We are Modular5.

The best-kept secret of modularisation. Everyone (in manufacturing) knows and understands the benefits of standardisation. In many of our posts, we discuss how modularisation helps OEMs achieve larger production series in low-volume and high-mix markets, driving up quality and reducing costs. Modularisation not only provides immediate benefits but also allows for the optimisation of the design's value drivers. Technologically advanced modules follow the product leadership approach to maintain technical superiority. Research and development focus on improving and introducing new functions. Other building blocks allow customers to customise their products to their needs and are optimised for customer intimacy. The remaining modules must be cheap to make, maintain and repair. Check out our latest blog post on our website, where we delve into the approach and benefits in more detail. You won't want to miss it! We'd love to hear your thoughts in the comments. #Framework #Modular #operations #Sales #productdesign #industry -+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+- We are Modular5.

Do you feel there’s never enough time to improve your products? ⏰ Companies in low-volume, high-mix markets often rush to meet deadlines. They barely have time to improve their designs. This affects how well products work, how long they last, and the environment. If designers had more time, they could: • Make products that use less energy. • Make them easier to fix and maintain. • Make them simpler to recycle at the end of their life. Modularisation is the magic word. 🪄 Designers save time and resources by breaking products into smaller, reusable parts. They can focus on perfecting each module, leading to better designs and less environmental impact. How is your team balancing tight deadlines with sustainability? Share your strategies for designing better and greener products! 👇 -+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+- We are Modular5.

When Should Businesses Use a Product Configurator in Low-Volume/High-Mix Markets? 🚀 You may wonder when to stop making a bespoke design for each order and start using a product configurator. Once your items have been modularised into standardised building blocks. This action has numerous significant benefits. 🎯 A more effective application of technological knowledge. Before modularisation, your best engineers are involved early in technical conversations with the clients. Their efforts may be in vain as the client is still exploring options with competitors as well. These specialists' contribution is only required at the end (if at all) to seal the deal when using a configurator. 🎯 Easily grow your sales staff. Less technical expertise is required up front, making it simpler to onboard new sales representatives and expand your sales team without a significant learning curve. 🎯 Promote the use of conventional solutions. By pushing customers towards standardised alternatives, a configurator lowers the number of special orders and increases productivity. 🎯 Accelerate the sales procedure. You can reduce the number of back-and-forth conversations and shorten the sales cycle. Are you curious about how this can benefit your business? 😐 To learn more about the options, visit our website. #Framework #Modular #operations #Sales #productdesign #industry -+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+- We are Modular5 .
