Part manufacturing processes are required to be streamlined since parts require a guarantee to fit with all others, and it similarly creates the opportunity for accurate interchangeable replacement parts.

The principle was originally put into practice in the 18th century by a number of inventors, including Honoré_Blanc, Henry_Maudslay and Eli_Whitney. The first concepts of interchangeability began to be developed in France during the 18th century, and around 1778, Honoré Blanc began producing some of the first interchangeable parts. Thomas_Jefferson saw a demonstration in 1785, and took the idea back to the United States, where Eli_Whitney and other inventors moved the concept forward. Eli_Whitney saw the potential benefit of developing "interchangeable parts" for the United_States military.
