This booklet is a wake-up call rather than a new invention. Tools,
processes and procedures that are in daily use in product development are
not always used to their full capability.
The authors´ intention is
to sharpen the mindset in terms of the evaluation of the environmental,
economic and social impact of product development from a holistic
perspective view and to encourage the reader to assess these impacts in a
predictive way upfront.
"Design-To-Cost in Engineering" still seems to be underestimated in the Design Process, whether it is in Conceptual or Detailed Design. Therefore, the authors would like to dedicate this book to how Simulation Tools could assist helping to gain more insight in terms of "Design-to-Cost" in the Development Process.
The authors also would like to encourage readers to think about Innovation in terms of "Function" and related "Cost", either being direct or indirect cost. Design-To-Cost: Just Buzzwords? For sure not, as this is increasingly deciding about "Success" or "Failure" of a company.
This book is targeted on making the understanding and application strategies of "Robust Design and Complexity Management in Engineering" more tangible. The buzzword "Time-To-Market" is very well known since quite some time but still determines "Success" or "Failure" of a company.
The necessity to develop product Re-Designs or completely New Innovative Design concepts more and more rapidly is putting high pressure on these companies like never before. As Robustness and Complexity are attributes of a product which can be measured they should become a design target from day one. The book´s intention, therefore, is not to be considered as a scientific textbook but to introduce Robust Design Concepts and Complexity Management to a wide engineering audience using examples. .
