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, New York 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. |

New York
Empire City - The Big Apple
Excellent choice! New York City (NYC) is known for many things such as immigration, landmarks like the Statue of Liberty, Broadway theaters, and skyscrapers. NYC's early history interesting left a solid foundation for skyscrapers. Thousands of years ago, the advance and retreat of a 2,000 ft thick ice sheet left bedrock at a shallow depth. The area also possessed advantages of being a coastal site fed by a wide river full of fish. Trapping and fur trading evolved into a settlement. Additional settlers were attracted with land. Freedom of the Press was born. International trade developed and immigration continued. The Erie Canal connected the Atlantic port to wider interior markets via the Hudson River and Great Lakes. The subway opened. Skyscrapers rose. UN's headquarters were built. Art flourished. And NYC became and remains a global hub of commerce specializing interestingly in niche areas like chocolate, leader of sectors including fashion, finance, education, media / entertainment, and medicine, and excellent city to host MBBC Quality Function Deployment (QFD) Training.

His teaching skills were exceptional making it easy for everyone to clearly understand the concepts. He brought energy and motivation in the workforce and quickly won praise, recognition and respect from management, staff and shop floor employees.
