This document discusses product design and development. It outlines typical phases of product development including planning, concept development, system-level design, detail design, testing and refinement, and production ramp-up. It then focuses on key aspects of designing for customers including quality function deployment (QFD) and its use of a House of Quality matrix to translate customer requirements into engineering goals. Value analysis/engineering aims to achieve equivalent or better performance at lower cost. Design for manufacturability involves concurrent engineering across functions. Design for logistics addresses economic packaging and transportation.
