About Quality Function Deployment (QFD) Training


Who is Quality Function Deployment (QFD) Training for?

Quality Function Deployment Training is for anybody hoping to maximize profitability resulting from the design of their service, process, or product. Sometimes, QFD is referred to as the "House of Quality" because its product planning matrices have the shape of a house. In our course, Louisville students learn:

Quality Function Deployment (QFD) Training Course Overview:

QFD training describes Quality Function Deployment - product design 'gone right' transforming customer needs into profit maximized launch plans. Far too often, engineers gather among themselves, and pump out designs with zero input from actual customers. The worst example we've seen was $20M spent on developing a pressure-based uninterruptable power supply system that had no market interest. The engineers thought it was a great idea. And technically it was pretty nifty. Unfortunately, nobody wanted to buy it, and it was a complete waste of shareholder dollars. To avoid mistakes like this, our students learn a structured approach to capturing customer needs and translating them into specific plans to produce products to meet those needs.
Customer Needs. Capturing "voice of the customer" (VOC) through direct discussion or interviews, surveys, focus groups, customer specifications, observation, warranty data, field reports, etc.

Product Planning. Constructing a matrix to translate general customer "what's" into more specific engineering "how's" being product requirements or technical characteristics to satisfy the needs.

Part Deployment. Cascading assembly-level requirements down to the component level.

Process Planning. Evaluating candidate manufacturing processes and choosing processes to make each part.

Quality Control. Defining process control plans to assure retention of capability throughout each part's production.

Louisville

Derby City - Where Northern enterprise and Southern hospitality meet

Excellent choice! Louisville began as a settlement at the stopping point to further travel on the Ohio River. Boats had to be unloaded and moved downriver before reaching the Falls of the Ohio. Horse breeding and racing became popular making Louisville home of the Kentucky Derby. The waterfall was circumvented by a dam and lock. WWII spurred aircraft production. Production of tractors, automobiles, appliances, and bourbon developed. Yet, cargo remains the city's economic underpinning. Meanwhile, Louisville grew culturally as well offering many options for activity after Quality Function Deployment (QFD) Training. Festivals, independent art, museums, and parks abound. Most popular are the Louisville Mega Cavern, and Slugger Museum & Factory.

So happy to get a professional that knows what they're talking about in here to teach us something useful. Our hands-on measurement system analysis exercise revealed problems with one of the gages most frequently used by Quality.
