Proactive Design Simplification™
Defining Solutions that Reduce Complexity, Lower Costs, and Improve Quality
By Design - Proactively
A Collaborative Process for Design Simplification, Quality Improvement, and Cost Avoidance grounded in the Principles of DFMA, Lean, and Integrated Product & Process Development
Working with your team to challenge the status quo and define new solutions that Enhance Value and Simplify the Design thereby Reducing Costs, Improving Manufacturability, and Ensuring Quality through Innovative Thinking and Collaborative Methods.
Product Design Drives Everything Downstream
Design decisions determine everything about the product and how it will be produced – from parts and materials to production processes, labor, quality levels, and more, including costs. Seventy percent or more of a product’s total cost is determined by the design in early product development stages.
Design is the time of Maximum Opportunity
Actively addressing the design’s impact on manufacturability, quality, and cost early in the development process maximizes the opportunity to realize
Producible, High Quality, Profitable Products - Proactively.
DESIGN
for Manufacture & Assembly
It’s not about how we’ll manufacture & assemble what we’ve designed,
but how we’ll Design so it can be manufactured & assembled.
