An integrated approach to products and productions

The paper, although not related with biology, discusses, analyzes and proposes an integrated approach applicable to the industrial production goods. Due to the current crisis of the macroeconomic scenario, the production type approval of competing firms, but first of all the new environmental urgency, is rising the need of reconsider new production systems. The methodological approach of the Design by components (Luigi Bistagnino, 2008), appears as one of the possible open paths to successfully face the on-going change; thanks to this approach, that critically analyses all the parts of a current industrial product, we can redesign new typology of products/production chains as well as the system they are introduced in. The redesign of the object is not a mere styling of it, but is e reinterpretation of the whole structure that allows to extend the life cycle of the product (by easily updating, maintaining, reparing,…) by reducing its cost of energy consumption, maintenance (nowadays most of the object are not repaired because too costly). This approach, consequently, involve the redesign of the industrial structure that evolve in a more flexible, glocal, ethical , economical and environmental model. Such strategies must be urgently met, because the lack of even only one of them could compromise the entire policy implementation and its own reaction to changes.
