Planning for Modularization
IR283-2, Industrial Modularization: Five Solution Elements, Version 1.1
IR283-2 presents five solution elements for increasing the use of modularization on industrial projects: 1) business case process, 2) execution plan differences, 3) critical success factors (CSFs), 4) standardization strategy, and 5) modularization maximization enablers.
It addresses the following modularization issues: assessment of benefits and costs of the modular approach; determination of the optimal level of modularization on a project; methods and timing of modular implementation; isolation of the CSFs that drive modular success; use of standardized modules versus the modular standardized plant; and strategies for overcoming industry-wide barriers to higher levels of modularization.
