On Febru­ary 27,2024, the VDMA will host the 13th Vari­ant Manage­ment Con­fe­rence in Lan­gen. This year’s the­me is “Balan­cing Qua­li­ty, Cos­ts, and Pro­duct Vari­ants.”

Today, the mecha­ni­cal and plant engi­nee­ring indus­try faces glo­bal chal­lenges in mee­ting indi­vi­du­al cus­to­mer requi­re­ments; batch size 1 is incre­asing­ly beco­ming the norm. The gro­wing com­ple­xi­ty and an incre­asing ran­ge of pro­duct vari­ants impact every aspect of the com­pa­ny, from sales to design, purcha­sing, pro­duc­tion, and even ser­vice.

IT-sup­port­ed, holi­stic vari­ant manage­ment can pro­vi­de valuable assis­tance, as the data is available to all tho­se invol­ved across depart­ments. This opti­mi­zes pro­ces­ses, crea­tes trans­pa­ren­cy and keeps qua­li­ty, cos­ts and deli­very sche­du­les under con­trol.

Suc­cessful vari­ant manage­ment is the focus of this year’s VDMA con­fe­rence. The 13th VDMA Vari­ant Manage­ment Con­fe­rence will show how com­pa­nies in the mecha­ni­cal and plant engi­nee­ring sec­tor can suc­cessful­ly posi­ti­on them­sel­ves in the balan­ce of qua­li­ty, cos­ts, and pro­duct vari­ants The accom­pany­ing trade exhi­bi­ti­on also enables per­so­nal and pro­fes­sio­nal exch­an­ge with solu­ti­on pro­vi­ders to show­ca­se their pro­ducts and ser­vices.

ORISA will be par­ti­ci­pa­ting in the trade exhibition—visit us at our booth! We look for­ward to see­ing you!
