Shortening development cycle times: a manufacturer's perspective

Year: 2002

Type: conference-paper

Abstract: Shortening product development cycle times without giving in on development costs or quality has become an important management goal in the management of development. Six hypotheses concerning shorter development cycle times are formulated. These hypotheses concern resource availability, vendor involvement, systems integration, design process technology, workforce flexibility, and manufacturing lead-time reduction. These hypotheses are tested on a database of European manufacturers, and a framework is proposed to interpret the results.>
