Tuning order configurator performance by dynamic integration of manufacturing and field feedback
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method for dynamically tuning order configurator performance, the method comprising:
- collecting product issue data for a manufactured product, the product issue data including performance and attribute information of a part of the manufactured product;
analyzing in an optimized order configurator executing in memory by a processor of a computer the collected product issue data to identify a problematic part; and
,modifying the order configurator using the analyzed product issue data, wherein the modifying the order configurator using the analyzed product issue data further comprises modifying an existing part selection rule by removing the problematic part from an availability list of the manufactured product.

Abstract
A novel and non-obvious method, system and apparatus for tuning order configurator performance by dynamic integration of manufacturing and field feedback information. A method for dynamically tuning order configurator behavior by using product issue data can include collecting product issue data for a manufactured product, the product issue data including performance and attribute information of a part of the manufactured product, analyzing the collected product issue data to identify a problematic part, and, modifying the order configurator using the analyzed product issue data.
