Definition of Concurrent Engineering
"Concurrent engineering is a systematic approach to the integrated, concurrent design of products and their related processes, including manufacture and support. Typically, concurrent engineering involves the formation of cross-functional teams, which allows engineers and managers of different disciplines to work together simultaneously in developing product and process design. This approach is intended to cause the developers, from the outset, to consider all elements of the product life cycle from concept through disposal, including quality, cost, productivity, speed (time to market & response time), and user requirements (include functional and reliability)."
Align all design to support the goal: Satisfy customer expectation
Quality,
Cost
Productivity,
Speed (time to market & response time)
User requirements (include functional and reliability)
Support the goal: Return customer and Profitability- How serious?

Concurrent engineering of products
Address all issues related to plete life cycle of the product at the product design stage - from initial conceptualization, to disposal/scrap of the product.
Concurrent engineering
• Has to be supported by top management.
• All product development team members should be
dedicated for the application of this strategy.
• Each phase in product development has to be carefully
planned before actual application.
