Designing Products and Processes with a Future
What does it take? l Involve the customer l Meet with the customer l Listen to customer l Educate the customer l Incorporate quality function deployment (QFD) l Design for robustness
What is a customer? l l l l The person who buys the product? The federal regulator? The consumer reporter? The marketing and sales department? Engineering? Manufacturing? Suppliers?
How do you hear the customer? Features Needs l Wants l Satisfaction l Perception Quality l ABOUT Value Importance Competitors Detractors
Product Design What the Customer wanted What Marketing described What Engineering designed What Manufacturing built
What is Design? A Decision Making Process – Idea generation Flexibility – Assessment of firm’s ability to carry out – Customer Requirements – Functional Specification – Product Specifications – Concept Generation – Concept Selection – Engineering Design – Engineering Evaluation – Prototype and Testing l Manufacturing Design Cost

QUALITY FUNCTION DEPLOYMENT l Quality Function Deployment – Uses the voice of the customer to build a design tool: » House of quality QFD: An approach that integrates the “voice of the customer” into the product and service development process.
Quality Function Deployment l Identify customer wants l Identify how the good/service will satisfy customer wants l Relate customer wants to product hows l Identify relationships between the firm’s hows l Develop importance ratings l Evaluate competing products
House Of Quality Tradeoff Matrix Importance Product characteristics Customer requirements Relationship matrix Technical assessment and target values Competitive assessment

Idea Generation Stage Provides basis for entry into market l Sources of ideas l – Market need (60 -80%); engineering & operations (20%); technology; competitors; inventions; employees l Follows from marketing strategy – Identifies, defines, & selects best market opportunities
Customer Requirements Stage Identifies & positions key product benefits – Stated in core benefits proposition (CBP) – Example: Long lasting with more power (Sears’ Die Hard Battery) House of Quality Identifies detailed list of product attributes desired Product by customer Characteristics – Focus groups or Customer 1 -on-1 interviews Requirements l l
Functional Specification Stage l l Defines product in terms of how the product would meet desired attributes Identifies product’s engineering characteristics – Example: printer noise (d. B) l l Prioritizes engineering characteristics May rate product compared to competitors’ House of Quality Product Characteristics Customer Requirements
Product Specification Stage l l Determines how product will be made Gives product’s physical specifications – Example: Dimensions, material etc. Defined by engineering House of Quality drawing Done often on computer Component – Computer-Aided Design (CAD) Specifications Product Characteristics
Quality Function Deployment l Product design process using cross-functional teams – Marketing, engineering, manufacturing Translates customer preferences into specific product characteristics l Involves creating 4 tabular ‘Matrices’ or ‘Houses’ l – Breakdown product design into increasing levels of detail
To Build House of Quality l Identify customer wants l Identify how the good/service will satisfy customer wants. l Relate the customer’s wants to the product’s hows. l Develop importance ratings l Evaluate competing ideas and concepts Ultimately you choose the design Not the customer!
House of Quality Example You’ve been assigned temporarily to a QFD team. The goal of the team is to develop a new camera design. Build a House of Quality. © 1984 -1994 T/Maker Co.
House of Quality Example What the customer desires (‘wall’) Customer Importance Requirements Light weight Easy to use Reliable Target Values
House of Quality Example Average customer importance rating Customer Requirements Importance Light weight Easy to use Reliable Target Values 3 2 1
House of Quality Example Choose engineering characteristics to satisfy the customer requirements Customer Aluminum Steel Requirements Importance Parts Light weight Easy to use Reliable Target Values 3 2 1 Auto Focus Auto Exposure

ROBUST DESIGN Design that results in products or services that can function over a broad range of conditions
What does Robust Design mean? l l l Plan for variability Assess your capabilities Design for Manufacturing Reduce Costs Practice! Improve RAM-D
Variability: The Taguchi Approach to ROBUST DESIGN i Design a robust product − Insensitive to environmental factors either in manufacturing or in use. i Central feature is Parameter Design i Determines − factors that are controllable and those not controllable − their optimal levels relative to major product advances
ASSESS CAPABILITIES l Identify Core Strengths l Match Products To Processing Capabilities – Design for Manufacturing (DFM)
DESIGN FOR MANUFACTURING The designers’ consideration of the organization’s manufacturing capabilities when designing a product. Materials Processes Assembly
REDUCE COSTS l Focus on simplification & standardization − Design for Assembly (DFA) − Increase emphasis on component commonality l Study how products are designed & built l Eliminate duplicate design & processes l Strategically control capital spending
INVOLVE OPERATIONS l Practice concurrent engineering l Establish technical exchange programs l Use collaborative styles l Look for continual improvement
IMPROVE DURABILITY, RELIABILITY, & SAFETY 1) Improve component design 2) Use redundancy 3) Improve production and/or 4) 5) 6) 7) 8) assembly techniques Improve testing Use robust design Use modular design Improve preventive maintenance Educate customers
Good Luck with your designs!
