    Keywords : Collaborative product development; Integrated product development; Concurrent engineering; Product development; Product design; Collaboration; Integration; Communication; Key factors; Decision-making; Knowledge transfer; Experience reuse; TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIKVETENSKAP; Innovation och design;

    Abstract : The increasing complexity of products and systems today has forced new processes, methods, and tools for managing the development of products. It has also forced the development of complex organisations and diverse relationships among functions and peoples within product development organisations. This implies a need for integrated processes. READ MORE

  2. 2. Interdisciplinary integration in complex product development : managerial implications of embedding software in manufactured goods

    Author : Niklas Adamsson; Margareta E. B. Norell Bergendahl; Martin Törngren; Annika Zika-Viktorsson; Pär Åhlström; KTH; []
    Keywords : Complex product development; interdisciplinary integration; technology fusion; systems engineering; new product development; TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIKVETENSKAP;

    Abstract : Incorporating electronics and software systems into manufactured goods is becoming very common in manufacturing companies. New technical functions, increased flexibility, and compensation for mechanical design weaknesses are some key drivers of this technological change in our everyday products. READ MORE

  3. 3. What's Next? : Organising Complex Product Development with Lean

    Author : Caroline Ingvarsson; Mats Engwall; Lars Uppvall; Anette Hallin; Pascal Le Masson; KTH; []
