商品描述

Use Six Sigma to achieve and sustain excellence in product development and commercialization!

 

To sustain growth and profitability, companies must tightly align product development and commercialization to fast-changing customer requirements. In this book, Clyde Creveling identifies the four process areas most crucial to doing so–and shows executives and managers how to optimize each of them.

 

Creveling introduces a Six Sigma-enabled workflow that encompasses strategic product/technology portfolio definition and development, research and technology development (R&TD), tactical design engineering processes for commercialization, and operational production and service support. He presents tools, methods, and best practices for selecting the right projects, prioritizing them, and executing them rapidly, consistently, and successfully.

  •  Integrate all key technical processes so they work together in harmony
  •  Create Phase/Gate control plans for delivering products with minimal risk
  •  Establish scorecards for risk management in technical processes
  • Use Six Sigma tools, such as Monte Carlo and FMEA, to improve project management
  • Bring discipline to your product and technology portfolio renewal processes
  • Systematically optimize your commercialization processes
  • Define stripped-down “Fast Track” processes for commercializing high-risk, high-reward opportunities
  • Provide effective operational support after you launch your product
  • Preview the future of “lean” and Six Sigma in technical processes
  • Use lean techniques to streamline repeatable processes such as R&D, product design, and post-launch production engineering support
  • Learn how to manage the risk of doing a fast track commercialization project when you really must cut corners to get a product out into the market before your opportunity evaporates

商品描述(中文翻譯)

使用六西格瑪(Six Sigma)來實現和維持產品開發和商業化的卓越!

為了維持增長和盈利能力,公司必須將產品開發和商業化與快速變化的客戶需求緊密結合。在這本書中,克萊德·克雷弗林(Clyde Creveling)確定了最關鍵的四個流程領域,並向高管和經理展示了如何優化每個領域。

克雷弗林介紹了一個六西格瑪(Six Sigma)啟用的工作流程,包括戰略產品/技術組合定義和開發、研究和技術開發(R&TD)、商業化的戰術設計工程流程,以及運營生產和服務支持。他提供了選擇合適項目、優先考慮項目並快速、一致且成功執行的工具、方法和最佳實踐。

- 整合所有關鍵技術流程,使它們協同工作
- 創建階段/門控計劃,以降低產品風險
- 在技術流程中建立風險管理的評分卡
- 使用六西格瑪(Six Sigma)工具,如蒙特卡羅和失效模式與影響分析(FMEA),改善項目管理
- 在產品和技術組合更新流程中引入紀律
- 系統地優化商業化流程
- 定義簡化的“快速通道”商業化流程,以商業化高風險、高回報的機會
- 在產品推出後提供有效的運營支持
- 預覽技術流程中“精益”和六西格瑪(Six Sigma)的未來
- 使用精益技術來簡化可重複的流程,如研發、產品設計和產品推出後的生產工程支持
- 學習如何在必須縮短時間將產品推向市場的情況下,管理快速商業化項目的風險
