Imple­ment vari­ant con­fig­u­ra­tion to enable con­fig­urable pur­chas­ing req­ui­si­tions for parts man­u­fac­tured at the fac­to­ry and sub­con­tract­ed through a third par­ty. This approach reduced the amount of records that have to be main­tained and pro­vid­ed a scal­able solu­tion for future col­or options.

Key take­aways:

• Lever­age the use of vari­ant con­fig­u­ra­tion across dif­fer­ent busi­ness areas (in this par­tic­u­lar exam­ple sup­ply chain).
• Cre­ate aware­ness on how pow­er­ful vari­ant con­fig­u­ra­tion is.
