2. EARLY PURCHASING & SUPPLIER INVOLVEMENT The design of new product is conducted by a team representing a number of functional areas. Product planning, design engineering, reliability engineering, purchasing, manufacturing engineering, quality finance, field support, marketing and carefully selected supplier and customer.
3. EARLY PURCHASING & SUPPLIER INVOLVEMENT 3 KEY ISSUES IN DEVELOPMENT OF NEW PRODUCT TIME QUALITY COST
4. 3 KEY ISSUES IN DEVELOPMENT OF NEW PRODUCT TIME QUALITY COST The lack of effective, cooperative teamwork among the groups noted frequently has been accompanied by quality problems, cost overruns, forgone all in cost saving, major scheduling problems and new products which are late to enter the market place.
5. THE DESIGN PROCESS Design is the progression of an abstract notion to something having function and fixed form. The desired levels of quality and reliability must be “engineered in” during the design phase of the new product.
6. THE DESIGN PROCESS (cont) Suppliers must have access to product design as early as humanly possible in the design process to ensure optimum use of any special skills . The design stage is also the optimum point at which the vast majority of the cost of making an item can be reduced or controlled.
7. THE DESIGN PROCESS (cont) The changing competitive environment forces much on planning, coordination, and review to take place during the design and development process than previously was the case.

38. THE DESIGN PROCESS (cont) The Kaizen method of continuous incremental improvements is an originally Japanese management concept for incremental (gradual, continuous) change (improvement). K. is actually a way of life philosophy, assuming that every aspect of our life deserves to be constantly improved. The Kaizen philosophy lies behind many Japanese management concepts such as Total Quality Control, Quality Control circles, small group activities, labor relations. Key elements of Kaizen are quality, effort, involvement of all employees, willingness to change, and communication.
