Synopsis
Simultaneous engineering (SE) is the term used interchangeably in equipment manufacturing industries with the term "concurrent engineering". The concept involves product planning which includes all departments within an organization and customer representatives. The goal is to share information to make the design, development, and production of the product more streamlined and make the end product meet final customer expectations and needs. US automotive industries have used SE very successfully over the past decade to increase the level of customer satisfaction for their products. This book uses these methods (successes and failures) in the automotive industry involving SE and new product development and provides applications to other industries.
