INDUSTRIAL ENGINEERING E lm Salah A.M. Elmoselhy o s e lh y Design for Profitability Guidelines to Cost Effectively Manage the Development Process of Complex Products D e Since the success of products significantly depends on the quality of product performance, inadequate management of the product design process can lead to s improper performance of products that can result in significant long-term business i g losses. Design for Profitability: Guidelines to Cost Effectively Manage the Development Process of Complex Products presents a design guideline for n complex product design and development that enables you to cost effectively f improve the technical performance of your products and consequently improve your o competitiveness in the marketplace as well as improve profitability. r The book helps you improve the competitiveness of your organization in the market P and eventually improve profitability. It presents a mobile robots design guideline based r on an empirical study of the mobile robots design process. This is an unprecedented o guideline based on the empirical investigation of the internal aspects of the design process of complex products for cost effectively enhancing the competitiveness in f i the market. The book also presents a hybrid lean–agile design paradigm for mobile t robots. In addition, it points out key approaches and risks to manage the product a development process efficiently. b Design for i In designing complex products and integrated systems, industrial designers face a l i dilemma of cost effectively striking a balance between product development time t and product performance attributes. This book shows how and when value is added y in product design and development through identifying statistically the most and Profitability least correlated design activities and strategies to product performance attributes. Introducing a new paradigm in the field of engineering design, the book gives you key approaches to efficiently manage the product development process.
