English term or phrase: product breakdown structure
In einem Marketingtext. Der Text scheint von einem Nichtmuttersprachler verfasst worden zu sein.

Wie kann ich "product breakdown structure" übersetzen? Produktaufgliederung? Produktaufschlüsselung? Produktanalyse? (Die –struktur kann ich wohl unter den Tisch fallen lassen, oder?)


2.2.2 Platform up-dates
A platform extension occurs when particular subsystems within the existing platform design are substantially changed and enhanced. For example, in the case of development of colour printing feature in the HP DeskJet 500 platform, key subsystems in the electronics and firmware subsystems were reengineered with colour capabilities. Production cost, print quality, and speed were also improved. The basic platform architecture remained constant. (Meyer and Lehnerd 1997a)

Product platforms (as well as products) must be updated to maintain competitiveness in the long term. If platforms are composed of different levels in a hierarchical structure, they can be managed as elements in a conventional **product breakdown structure**:

- Compatibility between platform versions.
- Platform version does not change if only the versions of its sub-platforms change.
- Platform effectiveness determines when a particular platform is used.

Produktgliederung / Gliederung nach Produkten / Produktstruktur
Explanation:
Ich stimme dir zu, dass "Gliederung" oder "Struktur" hier ausreichend sein sollte. "Produktgliederungsstruktur" wäre zwar auch noch eine Möglichkeit, ist aber m.E. "doppelt gemoppelt".
