Cpdm scope
The scope for Cpdm is product development in the beginning of product creation, which is in the beginning of the product life-cycle.
Product development
The product development in red frame above, can be described more formal and detailed, see the schedule below.
Product development consists of three parts:
- Development preparation
- Technical development
- Pre-manufacturing
Development preparation
Development preparation starts with a product idea and prepares this for technical development. The Cpdm book (available both as paperback and ebook from for example amazon) contains a vast example of product development of two chairs.
Technical development
This is the main focus for Cpdm, and is the major part of the Cpdm book. It starts with capture staff & requirements and ends with verification of prototypes. This schedule will be examined a lot in the following presentations.
Pre-manufacturing
This takes the verified prototype to a null series for manufacturing. The chair example in the Cpdm book exemplifies in more detail.
Suppliers
During the entire product development, the external suppliers are heavily needed, see the external part of product development in the figure below.
In the earlier phases, suppliers can be contacted to discuss:
- reuse concepts between products in a portfolio
- send samples for prototyping
- business cases involving their samples
Later on, samples and data-sheets can be ordered from their off-the-shelf catalogs or samples can be turnkey developed by suppliers. Later on suppliers will feed the null-series and manufacturers with components.
Cpdm technical development
The core of Cpdm, the technical development has the parts, see the figure below.
The Cpdm technical development consists of three parts:
- Specify black-box
- Design white-box
- Build and verify black- and white-box
This schedule will be examined a lot through coming video clips.
