目前，只有公司系统地利用产品平台的协同作用和各种产品组成部分的“批量捆绑“效应，才能应对日益激烈的国际竞争和客户要求的深刻个性化。最新的调查概述了生产公司在模块化产品架构中重组机电产品的事实。这得到了定义模块化产品架构的多种方法的支持。然而，广泛的可用模块化方法并没有回答模块在其进一步的生命周期中必须如何灵活地进行更改以及如何定义发布周期的问题。研究表明，对包含机电一体化系统的产品所做的更改中，超过50%是在生产开始后进行的。如果没有及早规划，这将导致日益复杂和资源浪费。因此，模块化产品架构在实现后的成功很大程度上取决于随后的早期发布计划。提出了一种在模块化产品体系结构设计过程中实施发布计划的新方法。通过全面规划模块和产品发布，同时建立模块化产品架构，为发布的规划和未来实现奠定了坚实的基础。此外，这一方法被扩展，以涵盖技术变革的最佳引入点的确定。
Increasing international competition as well as profound individualization of customer requirements are in the present time only manageable if companies make systematical use of synergies by product platforms and “volume bundling”effects for components of various products. Latest surveys outline the fact that producing companies restructure their mechatronic products in modular product architectures. This is supported by the availability of multiple approaches for defining modular product architectures. However, the wide range of available modularization approaches does not answer the question of how flexible modules must be in their further lifecycle regarding changes and how release-cycles have to be defined. Studies imply that more than 50% of the changes made to a product containing mechatronic systems are conducted after the start of production. In the absence of early planning this leads to increasing complexity and dissipation of resources. The success of the modular product architectures after implementation thus is largely dependent on consequent and early release planning. This paper outlines a novel approach to implement release planning during the design of modular product architectures. By thoroughly planning modules and product releases whilst setting up the modular product architecture, a profound base for the planning and future realization of the releases is set. Moreover, this approach is extended in order to cover the identification of the optimal introduction point of a technical change.
