Abstract:
The quality function deployment (QFD) conceptual design tool has been of significant benefit to customer satisfaction, while reducing the associated design time and cost. Observation of novice designers in tertiary engineering design courses identified a range of impediments to the robust transfer of QFD capabilities to the novice designers. These impediments appear to limit the perceived merit of QFD in novice designers and stymie its subsequent practical application. Given the improved design outcomes associated with QFD, a series of enhancements has been developed to overcome these impedime

Abstract:
In today’s competitive markets “quality” is a business imperative rather than a luxury. Increasingly in many markets “quality” is the price of entry and in others a major source of competitive advantage. The ability to design a “services package” that consistently meets the customers’ requirements is an important element of a successful quality improvement strategy. The inherent nature of “service package” complicates the design problems. Quality function deployment (QFD) is a systematic technique for designing products or services that are based on customers’ requirements. QFD, although tradi

Abstract This paper presented a study on proposing a method for motivation with the use of QFD.

QFD has been widely used in manufacture and service industries for making improvement with the existing products and programs. However, in this study, QFD was not used in the sense of “activation” to improve motivation. Rather, it took the viewpoint of “what is required by customers”, the central theme QFD, to approach the problem. With reference to the process of knowledg
