Product Development
Summer 2013
Increasing Importance of
Product Development
1. Customers demand greater product variety.
2. Customers are causing shorter product life cycles.
3. Improving technology is causing new products to
be introduced
4. The impact of increasing product variety and
shortening product life cycles is having a
multiplicative effect on the need for product
development.
5. Today, in order to be competitive, the firm may
have to produce many different products with a
life cycle of only five years or less. End of Life
issues
Product Design
Specifies materials
Determines dimensions &
tolerances
Defines appearance
Sets performance standards
Service Design
Specifies what the customer is to
experience
Physical items
Sensual benefits
Psychological benefits
An Effective Design Process
Matches product/service characteristics with
customer needs
Meets customer requirements in simplest, most
cost-effective manner
Reduces time to market - haste vs. speed to
market
Minimizes revisions - quality designed into the
product
Stages in the Design Process
Idea Generation — Product Concept - can you
create your own market? What role does the
voice of the customer play in idea generation?
Feasibility Study — Performance Specifications
Preliminary Design — Prototype - testing and
redesign
Final Design — Final Design Specifications
Process Planning — Manufacturing
Specifications - make to order/stock – assembly
line?
Idea Generation
Suppliers, distributors, salespersons
Trade journals and other published material
Warranty claims, customer complaints,
failures
Customer surveys, focus groups, interviews
Field testing, trial users
Research and development

Perceptual Maps
Visual comparison of
customer perceptions
Benchmarking
Comparing product/service
against best-in-class

Market Analysis Market Segmentation
Economic Analysis
Technical / Strategic Analysis
Performance Specifications
Risk Analysis
Economic Analysis
• Can we produce it at a volume to make a
profit?
• If not, why produce?
• How many do we have to make to break
even?
Break Even Analysis
Total Costs = Total Revenues
(Volume x Price) =
(Fixed Costs + Variable Costs)
Profit = (Total Revenue –
Total Costs)
Fixed
Costs
B/E Point =
Sales Price – Variable Costs
Example
Fixed Costs = $2000
Variable Costs = $5/item
Sales Price = $10/item
Fixed
Costs
($2000)
B/E PT =
Sales Price ($10) – Variable
Costs ($5)
B/E point = ($2000/$5) 400 items
Risk Analysis
1. Identify the Hazards
2.Assess hazards to determine risks.
3.Develop controls and make risk decisions.
4.Implement controls.
5.Supervise and evaluate.
Preliminary Design
How will it look?
Create form & functional design
Build prototype
Test prototype
Revise prototype
Retest
Functional Design
(How the Product Performs)
Reliability
Probability product performs intended
function for specified length of time
Maintainability
Ease and/or cost or maintaining/repairing
product

Production Design
Part of the preliminary design
phase
Simplification
Standardization
Modularity
Final Design & Process Plans
Produce detailed drawings & specifications
Create workable instructions for
manufacture
Select tooling & equipment
Prepare job descriptions
Determine operation & assembly order
Program automated machines
Improving the Design Process
Design teams
Concurrent design
Design for manufacture & assembly
Design to prevent failures and ensure value
Design for environment
Measure design quality
Utilize quality function deployment
Design for robustness
Engage in collaborative design
Design Teams
Preferred solution = cross functional teams
Marketing, manufacturing, engineering
Suppliers, dealers, customers
Lawyers, accountants, insurance
companies
Concurrent Design
Improves quality of early design decisions
Decentralized - suppliers complete
detailed design
Incorporates production process
Scheduling and management can be
complex as tasks are done in parallel
include the customer in the process!!
Design for
Manufacture and Assembly
Design a product for easy
& economical production
Incorporate production
design early in the design phase
Improves quality and reduces costs
Shortens time to design and manufacture
also known as Design for Six Sigma
Design for Six Sigma
• Define – the goals of the design activity
• Measure – customer input to determine what is
critical to quality from the customers’ perspective –
what are customer delighters? What aspects are
critical to quality?
• Analyze – innovative concepts for products and
services to create value for the customer
• Design – new processes, products, and services to
deliver customer value
• Verify – new systems perform as expected
DFM Guidelines
1. Minimize the number of parts, tools,
fasteners, and assemblies
2. Use standard parts and repeatable
processes
3. Modular design
4. Design for ease of assembly, minimal
handling
5. Allow for efficient testing and parts
replacement
Design for Assembly (DFA)
Procedure for reducing number of parts
Evaluate methods for assembly
Determine assembly sequence
Design Review
Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA)
A systematic approach for analyzing causes
& effects of failures
Prioritizes failures
Attempts to eliminate causes
Value Analysis
(Value Engineering)
Is there value added?
Ratio of value / cost
Assessment of value :
1. Can we do without it?
2. Does it do more than is required?
3. Does it cost more than it is worth?
4. Can something else do a better job
5. Can it be made by less costly method, tools,
material?
6. Can it be made cheaper, better or faster by
someone else?
Should we contract it out?
Design for Environment
Design from recycled material
Use materials which can be recycled
Design for ease of repair
Minimize packaging
Minimize material & energy
used during manufacture,
consumption & disposal
green laws in Europe -
Design for Robustness
Product can fail due to poor design quality
Products subjected to many conditions
Robust design studies
Controllable factors - under designer’s
control
Uncontrollable factors - from user or
environment
Designs products for consistent performance
A Well-Designed
Service System is
Consistent with firm’s strategic focus
Customer friendly
Easy to sustain
Effectively linked between front & back
office
Cost effective
Visible to customer
Process Design
Process Selection affects the
outcome – in production or
sports:
35
What is Process Selection?
• Series of decisions that includes
technical/engineering issues and volume/scale
issues
• Technical/engineering: basic methods that
produce a good or service
• Scale: how many or how much to produce;
how many to serve at a time
• Trade off analysis between capacity and costs
36
Why process selection is critical
• Dell – from make/assemble to order in Texas
to make/assemble to stock off shore
• Does this work?
• Break even analysis may depend on process
costs
• Which process gives the lowest costs –
assumption?
37
Trade off analysis
• Customer demanded quantity drives the trade
off analysis and decision process
• Example:
→ retail stocks at Christmas 2008 and 2009
season - goal save money by stocking less
→ At what point do you lose sales due to
lower stockage levels?
38
Process Design/Selection/Capacity
• Have to be simultaneous operations – some
texts suggest sequential steps
• Decision process has to be customer based
→ what should it be?
→ how many should be produced/how many
are we capable of producing?
→ how should it be produced?

Goal of Process Design
• Reduce lead time for product to the customer
• Is it best to be the first to market and establish
the market?
• Or, be the follower and let someone else do
the R&D/design/risk?
