As the complexity of technology advances, so will its interdependence, advances interdependence requiring individuals with skills in designing and managing projects from holistic view-point. In turn, this has created a new business structure, a transition from that of a hierarchical organization to that of a learning organization. f f
People in leader support team, a person has to lead instead of boss for success.
Team Success
Successful teams utilize contributions of each team member.
When a team builds interdependency, it becomes stronger than any one individual. This is synergy.
Creativity and innovation can and should be used throughout the engineering design process to develop better design processes, testing and evaluation methods criteria definition, and investigate techniques.
Brainstorming g
After the design is finalized, it is necessary to develop all of the detailed finalized engineering drawings.
During the testing and evaluation phase, the goal is to see if the product will t l meet goals and expectations when placed under actual ill truly t l d t ti h l d d t l operating conditions.
With the design, development and testing complete, the car is ready for its public introduction.
Knowledge is shared
Along with these benefits also comes an increased accountability and responsibility for the use of this information. The average designer can no longer create a design or prototype without consideration of market needs, costs or quality issues. The drafter, technician or designer can no longer bl l blame engineering management or i i sales if the product fails. The responsibility is shared and along with that, the responsibility to contribute to the problem-solving process that moves barriers away to reach the corporate goal.
When to Use Tools Available to Support the Problem-Solving Process Problem Solving
. Identify the problem - The problem is brought forward from any party within the total system. The problem is identified as a condition or state that is different from the desired state. Define the problem - Once the problem is identified it requires a process to clarify it in terms of the local situation The outcome of this stage is a well situation. defined problem statement. Research the cause of the problem - To research the cause of a problem, it is necessary to explore the root cause. This is accomplished by collecting and analyzing data using statistical tools. Explore solutions - Once the root cause of the problem is known then the team can explore the possible solutions to correct the problem. Act on the solution - Once a solution is selected it must be tried and tested. Observe the solution - Select best practices.
