Using the design for Six Sigma approach with TRIZ for new product development
The DFSS with TRIZ method is used to develop a new product.We present a case study to demonstrate how the DMADV framework with TRIZ is used to develop a new network device.The profit of this 4 year study is US$6,555,262.Seven patents are invented during this product development. Design for Six Sigma (DFSS) is a proactive process that entails incorporating the voices of customers into the design of products and processes. DFSS is used to establish a quality design by implementing preventive thinking and tools in the product development process. Recently, an innovative theory of inventive problem solving (TRIZ) approach has been successfully incorporated into product development processes. In this paper, we present a case study conducted based on the DFSS with TRIZ method for developing a new product called very high bit rate digital subscriber line 2 comprising multiple dwelling units. The results indicate that the DFSS with TRIZ method can be effectively applied in new product development. The profit of this 4 year study is projected at US$6,555,262. Seven patents are invented during this product development.
