Decline
Standardization
Standardization
Extent to which there is an absence of variety in a product, service or process
Standardized products are immediately available to customers
Advantages of Standardization
Fewer parts to deal with in inventory & manufacturing Design costs are generally lower
Reduced training costs and time

More routine purchasing, handling, and inspection procedures
Advantages of Standardization (Contd)

Orders fillable from inventory Opportunities for long production runs and automation Need for fewer parts justifies increased expenditures on perfecting designs and improving quality control procedures.
Disadvantages of Standardization
Designs may be frozen with too many imperfections remaining.
High cost of design changes increases resistance to improvements.

Decreased variety results in less consumer appeal.
Mass Customization
Mass customization:
A strategy of producing standardized goods or services, but incorporating some degree degree of customization Delayed differentiation Modular design
Delayed Differentiation
Delayed differentiation is a postponement tactic
Producing but not quite completing a product or service until customer preferences or specifications are known
Modular Design
Modular design is a form of standardization in which component parts are subdivided into modules that are easily replaced or interchanged. It allows:
easier diagnosis and remedy of failures
easier repair and replacement

simplification of manufacturing and assembly
Reliability
Reliability: The ability of a product, part, or system

to perform its intended function under a prescribed set of conditions
Failure: Situation in which a product, part, or

system does not perform as intended
Normal operating conditions: The set of

conditions under which an items reliability is specified

Improving Reliability
Component design Production/assembly techniques Testing Redundancy/backup
Preventive maintenance procedures

User education
System design
Robust Design
Robust Design: Design that results in products or services that can function over a broad range of conditions
Design for Robustness
Robust product
designed to withstand variations in environmental and operating conditions yields a product or service designed to withstand variations
Robust design
Controllable factors
design parameters such as material used, dimensions, and form of processing

users control (length of use, maintenance, settings, etc.)
Uncontrollable factors

Taguchi Approach Robust Design
Design a robust product
Insensitive to environmental factors either in manufacturing or in use.
Central feature is Parameter Design. Determines:
factors that are controllable and those not controllable their optimal levels relative to major product advances
Product Development Stages
Scope of product development team
Idea generation Assessment of firms ability to carry out Customer Requirements Functional Specification Scope of design for Product Specifications manufacturability and Design Review value engineering teams Test Market Introduction to Market Evaluation
Idea Generation
Supply chain based
Ideas
Competitor based
Research based
Idea Generation Stage
Provides basis for entry into market Sources of ideas
Market need (60-80%); engineering & operations (20%); technology; competitors; inventions; employees Identifies, defines, & selects best market opportunities
Follows from marketing strategy
Customer Requirements Stage
Identifies & positions key product benefits

Stated in core benefits proposition (CBP) Example: Long lasting with more power (Sears Die Hard Battery)
Identifies detailed list of product attributes desired by customer
House of Quality
Product Characteristics
Focus groups or 1-on-1 interviews

Customer Requirements
Functional Specification Stage
Defines product in terms of how the product would meet desired attributes Identifies products engineering characteristics Example: printer noise (dB) Prioritizes engineering characteristics May rate product compared to competitors
House of Quality
Customer Requirements
Product Specification Stage
Determines how product will be made Gives products physical specifications Example: Dimensions, material etc. Defined by engineering drawing House of Quality Done often on computer Computer-Aided Component Design (CAD) Specifications
Reverse Engineering
Reverse engineering is the dismantling and inspecting of a competitors product to discover product improvements.
Research & Development (R&D)

Organized efforts to increase scientific knowledge or product innovation & may involve:
Basic Research advances knowledge about a subject without near-term expectations of commercial applications. Applied Research achieves commercial applications. Development converts results of applied research into commercial applications.
Manufacturability
Manufacturability is the ease of fabrication and/or assembly which is important for:

Cost Productivity Quality
Value Engineering
Designing for Manufacturing
Beyond the overall objective to achieve customer satisfaction while making a reasonable profit is: Design for Manufacturing(DFM) The designers consideration of the organizations manufacturing capabilities when designing a product. The more general term design for operations encompasses services as well as manufacturing
Concurrent Engineering
Concurrent engineering is the bringing together of engineering design and manufacturing personnel early in the design phase.

Challenges of Service Design
Variable requirements Difficult to describe High customer contact Service customer encounter
High vs. Low Contact Services

High-Contact Service Low-Contact Service
Design Decision
Facility location
Facility layout
Convenient to customer
Near labor or transportation source
Must look presentable, accommodate customer needs, and facilitate interaction with customer
Designed for efficiency
Copyright 2011 John

High-Contact Service
Design Decision
Low-Contact Service
Measured against established standards; testing and rework possible to correct defects
Quality control
More variable since customer is involved in process; customer expectations and perceptions of quality may differ; customer present when defects occur
Excess capacity required to handle peaks in demand
Capacity
Planned for average demand
Copyright 2011 John

Design Decision
Low-Contact Service
Technical skills
Worker skills
Must be able to interact well with customers and use judgment in decision making
Must accommodate customer schedule
Scheduling
Customer concerned only with completion date
Copyright 2011 John

Design Decision
Low-Contact Service
Mostly backroom activities; planned and executed with minimal interference Fixed, less extensive
Service process
Mostly front-room activities; service may change during delivery in response to customer
Service package
Varies with customer; includes environment as well as actual service
