The art of making more by using less

Modularization

In his book, Modularization, Martin Sköld shows how companies and organizations in all industries, can release their greatest competitive potential. Although this potential exists, it is often ignored, which means most businesses rely on only a single competitive advantage. With a clear structure, and many good examples, Martin shows that modularization is the foundation to achieving double competitiveness which combines the benefits from high volume and high customization.
