Question:

Which of the following does NOT describe product design for maximum supply chain flexibility?

A. Create an increased number of modular products with fewer components.

B. Complete product assembly as close to receipt of actual orders as possible.

C. Reengineer products to use the same components.

D. Create many products variations.

Answer:

The correct option is;

D. Create many products variations

Explanation:

The options are analysed as follows

A. Create an increased number of modular products with fewer components.

Modularity increases the utilization of components such that manufacturers can create a wide variety of possible products that increases costumer satisfaction while maintaining utilization convenience  

B. Complete product assembly as close to receipt of actual orders as possible.

Here we have requirement for improved supply chain flexibility as such improving raw material utilization rate and overall manufacturing efficiency

C. Reengineer products to use the same components.

Here we have increasing modularization which improves design flexibility and manufacturing comparative advantage

D. Create many products variations.

The above creates many varying components which increases the number of components to be assembled into products hence it does not describe product design for maximum supply chain flexibility.

Stages of product life cycle and how the 4p fit into it.

The introduction stage:

at this stage, a new product just want to be introduced to the consumers. the product stage has being developed. The place where the product will fit in will also be consider. the location of people who consume this product. Pricing strategy consider a low price at the introduction stage, the business owner may not get any profit at this stage. then, continuous advertisement to create awareness of the product to the environment.

The growth stage:

the product will continuing to be move to different locations. the standard of the product quality will be maintained. the Pricing will start increasing. then, continuous advertisement to create awareness of the product and working on improving the product to suit the consumer.

the Mature stage:

At this stage, the consumer are fully aware of the product. wide range of location are reach. the pricing has reach its peak. Profit have been maximized. And, competitors of the product are in the market. Corporate social responsibility (CSR) will be the promotional value at this stage.
