Extending the product configuration to gain insight
One of the most important components in choice complexity is the product configuration itself, the mixture of product options that give a product its unique signature. Obviously the typical product orderable options are needed to analyze the complexity of a product, but other more abstract options can offer surprising insights into product and customer behaviors.
A typical car configuration has options such as sedan, V6 engine, automatic, blue, cloth, AM/FM/CD, sunroof. But more abstract items can be recorded along with these to offer more insight. Sales type can be recorded to analyze what types of product configurations sell better in promotional sales events as opposed to normal sales transactions. An attribute to record an extended factory warranty option may provide new ideas for packaging options together with additional warranty services that customers are moving towards.
