    Due to different trends, companies are facing new challenges. One challenge is the handling of complexity in the global value chain and the distribution of goods. This paper describes a methodology to link these company-specific complexities to generic areas of action and addresses the need to expand the understanding of the product. By this linkage company-specific packages of measures in the field of complexity management can be identified.

    Due to the high level of individualization and globalization, companies increase their product variety, which leads to an increased internal complexity at the level of the products business processes and the supply chain. The Institute of Product Development and Mechanical Engineering Design (PKT) has developed the Integrated PKT approach for developing modular product families, to reduce the internal variety with methods, that are aiming to handle, to reduce and to avoid complexity. To extend this approach to the level of the supply chain, the method Design for Supply Chain Requirements is under development. The important first step is to ascertain and to visualize the supply chain complexity induced by product variety. An approach to realize this first step is presented in this paper.
