Requirements Capture

AE-332 / 714 Aircraft Design

Capsule-1

What is Requirements Capture ? Understanding exactly what the Customer wants Understanding the priorities of Customer’s needs Identifying the features in the design that will help in meeting these needs result in highest customer satisfaction

Comparative analysis of competitor's designs identifying areas where they are better/superior identifying areas of superiority & leadership identifying areas offering scope for improvement AE-332 / 714 Aircraft Design

Quality Function Deployment (QFD) Originated in 1972 @Mitsubishi’s Kobe Shipyard

Developed by Toyota and its suppliers

Adopted worldwide by mid-eighties

Also called House of Quality Chart (HOQ) AE-332 / 714 Aircraft Design

Capsule-1

What is QFD ? Conceptual map or Set of routines for Planning & Communication

Focusing & Co-ordinating in-house skills in Design Manufacture Marketing

Foundation of QFD Products should be designed to reflect customer’s designs and tastes, so all departments should work closely together from the time a product is conceived AE-332 / 714 Aircraft Design

Capsule-1

Steps in QFD What do the customers want ? How can we change the product ? How can engineers influence product qualities ? How does one engineering change affect the other characteristics ? AE-332 / 714 Aircraft Design
