We don’t just rely on the numbers – we always plot the data! We review how we use plots to look past the numbers and common gotchas.
Supplier control plans and design specs can go hand-in-hand in the quest for quality. Learn how control plans can benefit your design process.
We can use FMEA to design for in-process testing, using both process and design FMEAs early during design concepts.
Creating design specs is an important part of engineering design. We review a way to choose critical design features, based on risk.
We talk about a Nine Windows tool and TRIZ – thought-provoking methods that we can use to expand and contract our problem to get unstuck.
We can reframe our problem within its contradictions. What is it not? We use an is/is-not matrix to help.
