Nowadays, manufacturing companies are faced with the challenge of meeting heterogeneous customer requirements in short product life cycles with a variety of product functions. So far, some of the functional requirements remain unknown until late stages of the product development. This is mainly caused by an increasing market dynamic in combination with the continuously changing customer expectations...
Today's challenge for manufacturing companies is the fulfillment of constantly growing heterogeneous customer requirements by simultaneously delivering highest quality standards within shortest time. One way to face this challenge is the highly iterative product development approach. Its objective is the distribution of the current development process in many short and iterative sub-processes. This...
This paper presents a concept to anticipate deviations from the target process and thus inefficiencies within development projects by aid of predictive analytics. It is stated that predictive analytics approaches can be adapted to predict deviations in development projects, comparable to the anticipation of crimes. Deviations in terms of time, costs and quality are seen as a result of waste and therefore...
The implementation of lean thinking in innovation management has not been executed systematically yet. For instance high uncertainties of processes or limited possibilities for automation in research and development (R&D) indicate special requirements for the implementation of lean thinking. A competitive R&D requires a holistic rethinking for the implementation of lean thinking. The lean...
