Midterm-Service Design Flashcards
ecery customer or item receives essentially the same service
standard service
Stages of Life Cycle
Introduction
Gowth
Maturity
Decline of a product
political, liability or legal
GSN
- govt. changes
- safety issues
- new regulations
one department over the other
over the wall approach
concerns with the introduction, growth, maturity and decline of a product
Life Cycle
Competitive
NN
- new and changed p or s
- new advertising or promotions
examniation if the function of parts and materials in an effort to reduce cost and improve performance
value analysis
Objectives of Product and Service Design
- customer satisfaction
- profit
- quality
- high tech appearance
- secondary focus
Understanding what customer wants
customer satisfaction
product or service cost
Profit
central feature of taguchi’s approach
parameter design
Secondary Focus
Function, cost, potential profit
taking into account the capabilities of the org in designing goods and services
Designing for operations
Sources of idea generation
supply chain based
competitor based
research based
A product must be usable for its intended purpose
Merchantibility and fitness
alternatives must be weighed in terms of cost, availability of resources. profit potential and quality
process specs
Marketing Opportunities and Threats
PESTCC
- political, liability or legal
- economic
- social and demographic
- technological
- competitive
- cost or availability
Legal, Ethical, envi issues
Product liability
Merchan and fitness
bringing design and manufacturing engi people together early in design phase to simultaneously develop the product
concurrent engineering
products or services that can function over a broad range of conditions
robust design
quality of being fir
fitness
postponement tactic
delayed differentiation
purchasing competitors product and inspecting it, searching for eays to improve their own
reverse engineering
Technological
PP
- product components
- processes
Absence of variety in a product, service or process
Standardization
organized efforts directed toward increasing scientific knowledge and product/process innovation
research and development
component parts are grouped into modules that are easily replaced or interchanged
Modular design
producing standardized goods or services, but incorporating degree of customization in final goods or services
mass customization
ability to perform its intended function under prescrive set of conditions
reliability
item doesnt perform as intended
failure
its easier to design a product that is insensitive to environmental factors
taguchi’s approach
failure happens when:(3)
- not operate at all
- substandard performance
- unintended purpose
determining specifications settings that will result in robust design
Parameter design
work as a team
concurrent engineering
Degree of newness(4)
- modification of existing p/s
- expansion of an existinf product line or service offering
- Clone of competitor’s p/s
- New p/s
can result in diff. designs for diff. countries or regions
Cultural Differences
uses combined efforts of team of designers who work in diff. countries
Global product design
detailed descriptions of what is needed to meet or exceed customer wants
Prodcut specs
where product development begins
Idea generation
process specs: alternaatives must be weighed in terms of (4)
cost
availability of resources
profit potential
quality
make any necessary changes or abandon
design review
used to determine customer acceptance
Market test
if market test is unsuccessful, return to_____
design view phase
