Assemble to Order
This approach is based on an “order-neutral” prefabrication of assemblies and modules. On receipt of a customer order (configuration), the desired product will be composed of these pre-fabricated modules. This concept enables the creation of well thought-out product families covering customer-specific requirements within a defined range. Examples: Computers, traditional production vehicles..
Pick to Order
This concept usually consists in the simple selection of a finished product, i.e. the customer picks the desired product from a defined product portfolio. Examples: Household appliances (e.g. washing machines, TVs etc.), general mass-produced articles (e.g. bolts and screws)..
Make (Build) to Order
Here, the product families have a clearly defined level of product variability. Materials, parts and assemblies of the end products as well as the production processes are given, only the time of the order and the order quantity still undefined.

In addition to the final assembly, pre-processes such as the production or pre-assembly of semi-finished products are also influenced by customer wishes. Examples: Machine tools..
Engineer to Order
This concept does not just focus on a particular product, but also comprises several services such as adjustments in engineering, implementation and maintenance. A comprehensive package consisting of products and services will be developed and realised according to customer specifications. Quite frequently, new products are created on the basis of finished projects which are adapted to new framework conditions. Examples: Complex conveyor systems, power plants..

Furthermore, HELiCON optimises the entire process chain from proposal preparation through to order processing.
