Business/Quality Transformation


		International Institute of Geometric Dimensioning & Tolerancing

	Technology Challenges/Constraints		Business Challenges/Constraints
	Miniaturization & Tolerance Truncation		Industry profit margins are radically low
	Cycle-time competing with precision requirements		80% costs related to physical parameters
	Traceable artifacts to support tolerance regimes		Tolerances decreasing—bad decisions increasing
	Inadequate models for physical parameters		Yield losses too high at all mfg. stages
	Customer requirements exceeding state-of-the-art		Acceptance testing and sorting are high cost

Quality Transformation—Formula for Success

	Turn engineering efforts into a science and eliminate redundant and inefficient development initiatives
	Gain a thorough understanding of the constraints & implications to critical functional characteristics
	Utilize this core knowledge to optimize leading-edge processes which will meet or exceed market needs and use to your advantage to determine and optimize vital development needs
	Utilize the Proven Sciences to: “Find the waste… Get rid of it…. Keep it away”

These Transformations Apply To: Design, Product, Tooling, Equipment, Process and Measurement
