Nowadays, industrial firms require reduction in their complexity although they are often defined as being complex.Complexity in industrial firms represents a new challenge in the decades (e.g., reconfiguration process) throughsome very important issues. These issues are: (1) vision of firm (2) structural (static) (3) operational (dynamical),and (4) evaluation. These issues contain different sub-issues such as: system design, product structure and design,manufacturing strategies, resources status of operating, supply chain management, and information and businessoperations, etc. Determination of the complexity levels in industrial firms is still unclear due to difficulty analysis ofvarious sub-issues. This research will put a framework to deeply analyze new issues and concepts to estimate theexpected complexity level in industrial firms. This analysis shows that the complexity of industrial organizations isstill ill-structured and multi-dimensional problem.
