What is simultaneous engineering in terms of Business Studies?

zbeckabee

Concurrent engineering, also known as simultaneous engineering, is a non-linear product or project design approach during which all phases of manufacturing operate at the same time - simultaneously. Both product and process design run in parallel and occur in the same time frame. Product and process are closely coordinated to achieve optimal matching of requirements for effective cost, quality, and delivery. Decision making involves full team participation and involvement. The team often consists of product design engineers, manufacturing engineers, marketing personnel, purchasing, finance, and suppliers. http://rockfordconsulting.com/ce.htm May 12 06, 9:44 AM

Wow, what an answer full of management bs terms. What should happen is that you design something, then develop (test) it and then when it's right, put it into production. Concurrent engineering means that you do the development at the same time as producionising so taking a risk that nothing changes. Then when it does, the designers get it in the neck for making changes necessary to all the expensive production processess. May 13 06, 4:19 PM
