Since time equals money, effective time management is of self‐evident importance. Outlines areas of management focus, through which time is a common thread. Analyses the constituents of time‐to‐market in terms of their capacity to measure temporal processes and reduce their costs. Proposes a structure to support the changes necessary for such reductions, and delineates the benefits accruing from reduced time‐to‐market.","PeriodicalId":113037,"journal":{"name":"World Class Design To Manufacture","volume":"14 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1995-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121292511","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The description of the product verbally in terms of functions, not features, frees the product from physical form in the mind′s eye. Once freed from the embodiment of the original product, the DFMA team can teach‐launch its concept probe to explore strange new visions, seek out new product concepts and break through the design paradigms. Contends that the journey of the concept probe through time and space is fired by the launching of concept triggers that burst new ideas from the endless darkness of the mind.

The consequences of designs which are incompatible with key business processes of a company are more severe now than ever before. Focuses on the importance of recognizing that the design process has more to contribute to a manufacturing business than the technological progress it helps to bring about. To this end, for some years now, the principles of design for manufacture have been applied right across the industry, but these have invariably concentrated on making the manufacturing processes simpler, more consistent, user‐friendly and cheaper to operate. This philosophy needs to be extended much further so that the design process takes full account of the requirements of the total supply chain to ensure maximum flexibility and responsiveness to customer demands at a minimum total cost to the business.","PeriodicalId":113037,"journal":{"name":"World Class Design To Manufacture","volume":"8 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1995-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134590774","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
