About the book: There is always room for improvement in design. Maybe there is need
for a better product, or for a better, more effective and economic, design process-the
late delivery of new products has been shown to be the single largest contributor
to the loss of company profits in the UK. Our own experience of working with automotive,
aerospace and healthcare companies has shown that effective communication, management
of change and process planning are essential ingredients for an effective product
development process. This book aims to develop an understanding of these issues as
a means to facilitate design process improvement. Part I contains a series of review
articles written by a team of international experts on models of design, perspectives
on design, design practice and design management. Part II provides an introduction
to the wealth of academic research on these topics by presenting the activities of
research centres from around the world. It is for: business leaders who want to understand
the role of design management as a driver for commercial success; design managers
who want to improve their company design procedures; designers who want to know how
to design more efficiently; researchers who want to explore the field of design process
improvement. An up-to-date source of information on design process improvement may
be found at: http://www-edc.eng.cam.ac.uk/designprocessbook.
Written for:
Academic and practising engineering designers, managers responsible for design matters,
libraries, senior undergraduate and early postgraduate students. |
