Listen "Why Yield Quality at the Front-End of Product Development"
Episode Synopsis
We can find Quality at the back-end of product creation, where it's used for compliance. We want to pick up some of it and move it to the front-end, where design decisions are happening. It's there that we can yield it like a tool to work with our cross-functional team, to help us with doing the engineering work that's important for great designs.We explore why Quality can help us PRUNE the development process just by the nature of how it's used.And we highlight the 3 areas that we focus on in Quality during Design: risk-based decisions, quality and reliability engineering partnership, and the user's process.Visit the podcast blog for a transcript and more links.Other Quality during Design podcast episodes you might like:Quality as a Strategic Asset vs. Quality as a Control More about the PRUNE strategy:Quality during Design Framework: PRUNE - Quality During Design The driving forces behind Quality during Design:First time here? - Quality During DesignReady to apply this to your project?→ Schedule a free discovery call: Dianna's calendarWant insights like this?→ Subscribe to my newsletter: qualityduringdesign.substack.comLearn the full framework:→ Get the Book: Pierce the Design Fog ABOUT DIANNADianna Deeney is a quality advocate for product development with over 25 years of experience in manufacturing.
