This paper describes an approach at Volvo Truck Corporation where geometry users' requirements are utilised to define configurable product views. The paper is derived from a research framework on geometry management. The objective of the research framework is to improve reuse of geometry by providing relevant geometry-based product information, so-called geometric product views, through application of configuration management. In order to provide relevant product views, specific fundamental product information must exist. This type of information will vary depending on the different types of product views. Several examples on product view are presented. The product views are realised by a developed configuration management system, an example of a configured product view is presented as proof of concept. The configuration management system is currently under industrial implementation.
