Abstract
Supply chain network (SCN) performance is a driver of a manufacturing firms' competitive ability due to their concentration on core competences. Suppliers provide the majority of the product, represented through its product architecture (PA). Literature promises a superior SCN performance for a matching between the design of the SCN and the PA without providing any corresponding approaches. This paper provides a multi-stage procedure to match the SCN design with the PA using structural information of both perspectives. The information of domains and dependencies from the SCN and the PA are documented in an integrated Multiple-Domain-Matrix (MDM) as system model.
