The presentation discusses developing products through robust development processes. It emphasizes doing thorough upfront research to create a clear design brief that focuses on customer needs. A key part of the process is exploring multiple concept designs early to fail fast and cheaply. Leveraging technology like CAD and virtual prototyping helps get designs right before production. Following a rigorous process from concept to production helps deliver greater value to customers and increase business returns.

4. It’s all about Value – To you & your customer
1. Improves Innovation/ Design/ Engineering
2. Directs focus on the Customer Need
3. Reduces Development Cost
4. Reduces Time to Market
Increase The Bottom Line

6. Delivering Value – To you & your customer
1. Improves Innovation/ Design/ Engineering “Products that come to
market six months late
but on budget will earn
2. Directs focus on the Customer Need 33% less profit over five
years.
3. Reduces Development Cost In contrast, coming out
on time and 50% over
4. Reduces Time to Market budget cuts profits by
only 4%.”

7. The Development Process:
Getting it Wrong & Getting it Right
Developing Products to Deliver Value
8. A Common Little Gem!
Project identified – Needs based on perceptions
Team jumps straight into design – Interprets needs
Physical models created
Review becomes a ‘That’s not what I meant’ scenario
Project goes back through the Design loop
Low & behold –We haven’t meet expected ROI!

9. Bugger!
• Increased labour, material cost
• Project gets axed
• Increased time to market
Significantly
• Doesn’t address customer needs
Reduced
• Costly rework Returns
• Lost opportunity cost

11. The ‘Great Unknown’:
The Project’s Front End
Developing Products to Deliver Value
12. Designing a Revolutionary Product
• Requires investment in research
• Roughly 1/3 of the project time should be spent on each phase
Brief research and Tooling and
Design development
development productionisation
This is where the real breakthroughs occur

13. Feasibility Stage- We know our Customer!
• Customer Analysis
– User Centred design approach
• Competitor analysis
– Key Differentiators
• Market Direction
• Technology Optimisation
• Funding opportunities
Outcome of stage is a Design Brief/ Project Spec

14. Design Brief – Why bother?!
• All parties know exactly what’s being designed- And WHY!
• Prevents project from going off track
– Keeps team focused
• Product features are clearly identified and agreed
• Ensures project is:
– Well researched
– Well understood
– Relevant to the market need
Core Document – Absolutely key to project success

15. Concept Design Stage
• Develop ways of meeting the Design brief criteria
– Address that unmet need
• Explore multiple options cheaply and quickly
– Fail early & Fail fast
• Create accurate costings/ price points early
• Provide Key stakeholders early input and buy in
– Ability to Visualise/ understand product

16. Embodiment / Detail Design Stage
• Modular design approach
– Reuse of existing data and standard parts where possible
• DFM - Design For Manufacture
• DV&T Program - Design Validation & Testing
– Design Analysis & Optimisation
• Continued User Analysis / Usability Assessment
• Risk Management
– Identification & Mitigation document
– IP Infringement searches

17. Pre-production / Production
• Final checks before tooling/ cutting steel
• Documentation
– Comprehensive and accurate manufacturing/ assembly drawings
– Quality docs/ Technical specs
– Marketing material
• Supply Chain Development and Management
– Don’t just go for the cheapest source
• Final Testing & Verification
