The Concept Enterprise Product Configurator makes it easy to capture configuration rules without any programming knowledge. Concept Enterprise Product Configurator's powerful

heuristic.

assemble-to-order, configure-to-order, and engineer-to-order type

product managers to implement the product configuration software and
capture product rules efficiently
