This book represents is the first comprehensive academic study establishing the scientific design theories and methods of standardization. This groundbreaking volume systematically advances standardization science through practical design methodologies, effective assessment methods, and in-depth theoretical discussions. This volume delivers three essential components: implementation methods, effectiveness assessment methods, and scholarly discourse on standardization challenges, emphasizing the meaningful value effects of universalization, serialization, modularization, combinatorization, model spectrum series and family pedigree and so on in practical applications.

The book provides the critical design methods and assessment methods in standardization application and explores deeply some standardization philosophy questions. Advanced topics encompass the theories and their design methods of universalization, serialization, modularization combinatorization, product model spectrum series and family pedigree, product variety governance, product synergy interoperability, product top-level design, and product optimization, the index system of product standardization, the theory and methods of standardization system engineering, the theory and methods of standard management and control of projects, the standardization strategy of product components, the application status and assessment of standardization, and the assessment models of standardization benefits. These methodological approaches serve as powerful means for achieving the optimized development of various products and the effective assessment of the role of standardization.

This volume provides professional understanding and methods for the optimization and development of products, services, and management as treasured approaches for promoting high civilization and high-quality development across diverse societal applications including industry, agriculture, service sectors, social governance, and standardization institutions.

This book empowers engineering professionals, research scientists, academic instructors, executive leadership, and students pursuing advanced standardization competencies through systematic methodology contents.

This methodological approach resonates with its companion title "Standardizology: Science Theory of Standardization ― Cognition and Basic Theory", which establishes the essential cognitive foundations and theoretical frameworks necessary for the effective practical implementation of standardization.

Lvbo Mai is a Ph. D., chief scientist, senior fellow and has conducted research of theory and method of standardization for approximate 40 years.
