Potential & Feasibility Study

Trusted by Industry Leaders

Know where modularization pays off

From gut feeling to a business case

Moving from Engineer-to-Order to Configure-to-Order is a strategic step. Before you commit people and budget, you want to know where the real gain in your product portfolio is, and what it will deliver.

The Potential & Feasibility Study gives you that answer. In about four weeks, a multidisciplinary MODULAR5 team scans your portfolio and turns the findings into a business case and a roadmap you can act on.

One focused study. Clear numbers. A concrete next step.

What we look at

You can only modularize once you know where the variation really sits. That is why the study starts with your own data:

• Product data: BOMs, drawings and configurations
• Order history and the variants you actually sell
• Where engineering hours are spent, and why
• Hidden variants and the growth of unique parts

We bring the results together in a Variation Heatmap: it shows where standardization and modularization create the greatest impact.

What you get

• Variant and portfolio analysis: a clear read on which product families and variants hold the most untapped potential.
• Business case: the expected return, so the decision rests on numbers instead of gut feeling.
• Roadmap toward Configure-to-Order: a staged path from where you are today to a clear technology direction.
• Proof of value: a tangible result on a single product part, as evidence before you scale.

How it works

1. Multidisciplinary scan. Our consultants and engineers analyze your portfolio together, in about four weeks.

2. Results session. We walk you through the findings, the business case and the roadmap in one working session.

3. Go / no-go decision. You decide whether to continue, with no obligation toward any follow-up.

Three steps. About four weeks.

It's yours to keep

You receive the business case and the roadmap in one document. Use it internally however you like: to align your management team, to set priorities, or to prepare the next step. There are no strings attached.

Your portfolio. Your numbers. Your decision.

Is the study right for you?

The study is designed for manufacturers of complex products in low volumes and a high mix: machine builders, trailer builders, shipyards and housing manufacturers, and every company where each order starts on the drawing board. Your industry not listed? The same approach applies.

Start with insight. Then decide.
