Engineering
organization in almost all industries are dealing with costly and
time-consuming design changes occurring at later stages of product
development. As per our estimates at least 30%-50% of design time and
effort is spent on “rework” though these Engineering Changes.
Though
some design changes are unavoidable and arise due to disruptive factors
outside the control of the organization such as stricter regulations and
design norms, changing customer needs or product price reduction
strategies etc. The remaining issues fall under completely preventable
category. This info graphic helps to explain a bit about the possible
causes of rework in product engineering that can be prevented and its
impact on overall design time.
