Professional Development, Introduction of New Products in Manufacturing
During the past fifteen years, a renaissance of new industries has occurred, stimulating new product development. This development of high-tech products has promoted a myriad of new products that never before existed. Defining and maintaining the database is the primary responsibility of Engineering. New product introduction, in the past, varied from two to five years, so it is obvious that the need to reduce lead-time becomes imperative. This means that Engineering needs to work more closely with Manufacturing in order to satisfy those needs.
Introduction of New Products in Manufacturing is ideal for engineering, planning and scheduling, purchasing, marketing and sales, as well as operations personnel.
