It presents a scenario where a group is configuring a product, service or solution. However, good group decisions are difficult to arrive at. Therefore, to facilitate group decision, group recommender systems exist. Yet, they have not been applied to group-based configuration. This thesis proposes a concept for a recommender system that helps a group to find a consensus for a configuration decision. The concept is evaluated with synthetically generated groups of four people and shows good results for heterogeneous groups. \ No newline at end of file +Group-based configuration is a rather new configuration approach.
