Everything is potentially reusable!

Yeah, we know what we do is quite complex.

The good part: our product, pure::variants makes your complex PLE-processes easier to handle.
The even better part: We’ve worked the last years, to make it easier for you, to understand what makes pure::variants unique and the best solution for your variant management challenges.
Now we are very curious to see how you like our new way of communication.

What is Product Line Engineering (PLE)?

Product Line Engineering (PLE) is crucial for successfully managing the growing complexity of products, combined with heterogeneous market demands and unforeseen customer requirements. PLE provides a proven approach to address this challenge. From the initial inquiry through hardware and software components to testing, not just one product, but an entire family of products is developed. This works because components and technical artifacts belonging to similar products often have a common base, differing only in product specifics.

Meet Ben in this video, who is working on a new generation of coffee machines and is facing some challenges: 

By considering these similar products as a whole rather than individual, independent projects, the development process can be simplified – along with its management. This is the guiding principle of the product line approach. Companies benefit from numerous advantages, including efficient and cost-effective product development, minimizing errors and inconsistencies, and delivering high-quality products.
