DESIGN PROCESS
Overview
The engineering design activities that are necessary for product development are often treated as a discrete functional activity, with little or no involvement of the other plant functions (e.g., manufacturing or production engineering). Particular projects often are compartmentalized within a multiproject organization. This approach to product development stresses performance and gives little attention to producibility consideration. As a result, the product's design meets performance specifications at the completion of development, but does not allow for the limitations of manufacturing processes and procedures found on survive rate production without performance degradation, and significant redesign is required for efficient production.

TRAPS
Producibility studies are performed at the completion of FSD

Manufacturing processes are proven during low rate production

Latest technological processes are used

The design is dictated by design engineering
