Principles of concurrent engineering

The world-wide competitive economy is forcing us to utilize fully the best equipment and techniques available with efficient control of organizational structure to produce high quality, well-designed products at lower prices and in less time. Increasing awareness is being directed to the product design phase, because the more advanced CIM technologies are of little consequence unless the product design lends itself to the overall system utilizing all available and relevant technologies. For instance, the following statements represent the significance of product design.
