Aberdeen Group's Configuration Management Report identifies the approaches that leading companies take to manage their bills of material (BOMs) and product configurations. An analysis of respondents from midsize companies indicates that they are performing at the same levels as larger organizations, on average, in managing their product configurations. These mid-tier companies share the same opportunities as larger manufacturers to improve their configuration management performance - and ultimately improve their ability to deliver profitable products to market.
