1. 1

2. Dealing effectively with increased
product complexities & demands?

3. What we‘ve learned from customers
and research can help you.
Here´s what we have
to share.
3

4. Customers require a broader range and
selection of products
4
What customers
want…
Products that are
better, cheaper,
and faster

5. Which today include an exponentially increasing
amount of software
5

6. As well as, high levels of connectivity
6
With more…
Intelligent products
and the
Internet-of-Things

7. with many more competitive pressures
7
and with it…
Wider and deeper
market reach

8. Therefore, leading to increased
organizational complexity
8
Companies needing
to expand horizons
… more mergers &
acquisitions

9. And inevitably more and stringent
regulatory burdens
9
Federally mandated
automotive recalls
(NHTSA history):
• 390 million
cars, trucks, buses, recreatio
nal
vehicles, motorcycles, moped
s
• 66 million pieces of
automotive equipment
• 42 million child safety seats

10. The negative impact of
COMPLEXITY
10

11. Collaboration is tough without well-defined
processes and tools
11

12. 12
Related design artifacts can´t be reused across product lines which
• Limits design reuse
• Creates inconsistencies in product design
• Introduces quality issues creating products that are more difficult & costly to maintain
• Increases errors & redundancies because of lack of standardization with increased
engineering, manufacturing and servicing costs

13. Disjointed processes make early design validation
impossible, leading to costly late stage rework
13

14. 14
AND THEN...
Complete product designs are not manufactured
on time, affecting time-to-market and
lost market opportunities

15. 15
If this is your experience, don´t despair
THERE IS A SOLUTION.
Watch out for Part 2.
