Timing Reliability in Product Design, with Jeffrey Lewis (A Chat with Cross-Functional Experts)

Jeffrey Lewis and Dianna Deeney talk about timing reliability for product development success.

Supply Chain Management during Design, with Kevin Bailey (A Chat with Cross-Functional Experts)

Kevin Bailey and Dianna Deeney talk about how design engineers are affected by and can affect supply chain management, for design success.

Why Yield Quality in the Front-End of Product Development

We want to yield quality in the front-end of product development, to help us do the engineering work that’s important for great designs.

5 Options to Manage Risks during Product Engineering

What do we do with the risk we’ve identified? We look at five different ways to manage risk during new product development.

UFMEA vs. DFMEA

UFMEA vs. DFMEA, the power tools of concept development. What are the similarities and differences? How do they relate, and do we need both?

Prevention Controls vs. Detection Controls

Dianna compares different types of controls in product development and design engineering: Prevention Controls vs. Detection Controls. She reviews concepts, uses for controls, risk-based controls, and how to prioritize design efforts for the right controls.

Try this Method to Help with Complex Decisions (DMRCS)

A team approach to complex decisions, with many options and criteria, is suggested by Dr. Anderson-Cook and Dr. Lu: DMRCS.

The Designer’s Important Influence on Monitoring After Launch

Because of your role as a designer in product development, you have great input into the planning for what field (or real-use) data should be monitored for your product. We talk about this as post market surveillance, which is a typical term used for medical devices. This episode talks about how the post market surveillance…

The Designer’s Risk Analysis affects Business, Projects, and Suppliers

It takes a village to produce a design from concept to realization. Everyone along the way seems to think of risk a little bit differently. Designers are both directly and indirectly involved with all these risk management methods, but it’s important to understand who is looking at what type of information. Why? Because of communication. One group…
