Provides a clear, useful framework and methods for R& D, including robust technology development, product planning, andproduct design and development management
Quality Strategy for Research and Development integratesthe Japanese and Western perspectives on Quality FunctionDeployment (QFD), updates the strategy of Robust Engineering (RE), and relates their unique frameworks to current, widely adoptedphilosophies of quality assurance.
Featuring real-world case studies, more than thirty tables, andover seventy figures, this essential guide identifies key issuesand proposes improvements in the current R& D paradigm. Itoffers in-depth coverage of technology development, productplanning, and product design and development management.
Quality Strategy for Research and Development:
* Updates the conventional approaches to QFD and RE, and providesthe implementation model of combining them into a corporateoperating system
* Identifies key issues in the current practice of R& D, andprovides solutions for improving design quality and R& Dproductivity
* Includes the case studies of designing a functional circuit, magnetic component, measurement system, and machiningequipment
* Offers the integration models of QFD and other breakthroughstrategies including DFX (Design For eXcellence), DFSS (Design ForSix Sigma), and Blue Ocean Strategy
Written for R& D executives, managers, engineers, and qualitypractitioners, Quality Strategy for Research and Developmentis also an ideal text for professors and students of industrial andsystems engineering, technology management, and businessadministration.
