Managerial implications of the developed quantification approach

However, the employment of the quantification approach is associated with a degree of time exposure that depends on the level of accuracy with which the input data are edited. This statement especially refers to the system dynamics-based simulation, which requires data according to the chosen product segmentation as well as the respective suppliers and customers. This two-dimensional character of the input data is responsible for a comparably high complexity, which leads to the mentioned time exposure and, additionally, to persons who stay acquainted with the handling of the quantification approach. 

In summary, the benefits and costs of employing the quantification approach have to be weighed individually. However, it is certain that the approach is a usefid tool for value determination in advance.
