Abstract

Although modularization is becoming a welldescribed and broadly applied concept, many of today’s firms still struggle to realize the promised benefits of this approach. Managing modularization is a complex matter, and in spite of this, a topic that has received far less attention compared to theories and methods
concerning modularization of technical systems.Recognizing the need for guidance to realize the benefits of modularity, the purpose of this study is through a
literature study and a case study to improve the insight into the organizational and systems related enablers and barriers with regard to obtaining the full potential of
modularization.
