This project delivers a backend system that enables the customer to have a working 3D web configurator. The system takes into account the requirements of an existing UI/UX concept and the customer's product catalogue, which places high demands on a flexible, hence generic solution.
Product Configurator, Configuration System, Configuration Logic
The goal is to create a software architecture and to design a configuration logic in the backend, which meets the requirements of the UI/UX concept as well as the requirements of the customer. The main focus is on achieving a reasonable execution time for complex configurations, ensuring compatibility with the customer's product range and facilitating easy adaptation of the configuration logic.
The customer's new sales order process required both a new UI/UX concept for product configuration and a software architecture to support this concept in terms of functionality.
This project builds directly on a previous project that used a design-first approach to flesh out the UI/UX concept. As a continuation of this work, the current project is based on a literature review of configuration systems and an analysis of the customer's product range.
The knowledge gained led to the realisation that a generic approach to the backend of the configurator is the optimal solution to flexibly address current and future functional requirements. The chosen solution has proven its suitability and provides a solid foundation for future implementations.
