Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Project Management in Product Development: Leadership Skills and Management Techniques to Deliver Great Products is written for new and aspiring project managers in product development. Although texts on project management are common, the material presented here is unique, instead focusing on product development, a challenging segment of project management because of the high level of uncertainty, the need for a robust set of problem-solving techniques, and a demand for broad cross-functional teams. The book also focuses on more than just project management techniques, including a thorough treatment of transformational and transactional leadership. Other topics covered include problem-solving techniques, development, and continuous improvement of processes required in product development, risk recognition and management, and proper communication with mangers and other stakeholders. Finally, project management techniques used in product development are presented, including the critical path method, scrum and XP, and Kanban/lean project development, along with the strengths and weaknesses of each. Provides ways to successfully manage product development projects by teaching traditional and advanced project management techniques like Gantt, CPM, Agile, Lean, and others Covers transformational and transactional leadership, how to create a vision and engage the team, as well as tactics on how to manage a complex set of tasks Uses a practical, common sense approach to the day-to-day activities of a project manager, including project planning, project process development, problem-solving, project portfolio management, reporting, and more Presents a thorough comparison of popular project management tools Includes many examples, cases, and side-bars that are included throughout the book

This book was released on 2021-10-16 with total page 162 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book conveys useful knowledge, skills and behaviour that an engineer who is responsible for product development/project management often needs, but which is not given enough attention in the usual engineering education. It goes beyond the specialist knowledge into the human domain, because technical and/or organisational difficulties are in fact always based on human problems. The book is aimed at professionals and managers working in the development of machines, apparatus, equipment and the like, including the responsible organizational managers.

Download or read book Hierarchon Vol 2 written by Thomas L. Saaty and published by RWS Publications. This book was released on 2015-08-18 with total page 366 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Researchers have been continually developing ways and means to improve quality in decision making. The success of a methodology is judged by its acceptability by the decision makers. In this context, it is beyond any argument that AHP has been massively successful. Readers of this volume will see, once again, that AHP has been applied in widely diverse areas. However, there are many more applications of AHP in other areas that are not reported here. We also don’t claim that the set of applications of AHP in the reported areas is exhaustive; it is far from complete. In fact, it will not be possible to capture all the real-world applications of AHP even by publishing many volumes of this kind. We hope that the readers will find the present compilation useful.

This book was released on 2001-09-24 with total page 362 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a practical guide to the components of engineering management, using a holistic approach. It will help engineers and managers understand what they have to do to improve the product development process by deploying new technology and new methods of working in concurrent teams. The book takes elements from six well known and understood bodies of knowledge and integrates them into a holistic approach: integrated product development, project management, process management, systems engineering, product data management, and organizational change management. These elements are framed within an overall enterprise-wide architecture. The techniques discussed in this book work for both huge multinational organizations and smaller enterprises.

Download or read book Decision Support for Product Development written by Marcin Relich and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-11-22 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book describes how to use computational intelligence and artificial intelligence tools to improve the decision-making process in new product development. These approaches, including artificial neural networks and constraint satisfaction solutions, enable a more precise prediction of product development performance compared to widely used multiple regression models. They support decision-makers by providing more reliable information regarding, for example, project portfolio selection and project scheduling. The book is appropriate for computer scientists, management scientists, students and practitioners engaged with product innovation and computational intelligence applications.

Download or read book Customer Oriented Product Design written by Cengiz Kahraman and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-03-19 with total page 478 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers a comprehensive reference guide to customer-oriented product design and intelligence. It provides readers with the necessary intelligent tools for designing customer-oriented products in contexts characterized by incomplete information or insufficient data, where classical product design approaches cannot be applied. The respective chapters, written by prominent researchers, explain a wealth of both basic and advanced concepts including fuzzy QFD, fuzzy FMEA, the fuzzy Kano model, fuzzy axiomatic design, fuzzy heuristics-based design, conjoint analysis-based design, and many others. To foster reader comprehension, all chapters include relevant numerical examples or case studies. Taken together, they form an excellent reference guide for researchers, lecturers, and postgraduate students pursuing research on customer-oriented product design. Moreover, by extending all the main aspects of classical customer-oriented product design to its intelligent and fuzzy counterparts, the book presents a dynamic snapshot of the field that is expected to stimulate new directions, ideas, and developments.

Download or read book Case Studies in Food Product Development written by M Earle and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2007-12-18 with total page 441 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: New product development is vital for the future of the food industry. Many books have been written on NPD theory over the last 40 years, but much can still be learnt by studying actual experiences of NPD. Case studies in food product development describes specific NPD projects in a variety of industries internationally and also records overall comments, written by the very people who have completed the projects. Part one outlines new product development in the food industry and part two views product development strategy and management in different companies and organisations. Parts three, four and five are twelve case studies on respectively the product development process, technological development, consumer and market research. Part six considers product development in practice and the final chapter demonstrates how product developers are being educated. The case studiers are written by experienced product developers talking openly about experiences with their own products. It is hoped that those faced with similar challenges will gain from these real life experiences. Mary and Dick are also co-authors with Allan Anderson of Food product development, which has achieved international success. Case studies in food product development is a complement and a practical companion to this book. Describes new product development in a variety of international industries Outlines new product development in the food industry and views product management and strategy in different organisations Includes case studies focusing on the product development process, technological development, and consumer and market research
