4-2 Product and Service Design
Major factors in design strategy Cost Quality Time-to-market Customer satisfaction Competitive advantage
Product and Service DesignProduct and Service Design
Product and service design – or redesign – should be closely tied to an organization’s strategy
4-3 Product and Service Design
Translate customer wants and needs into product and service requirements
Refine existing products and services Develop new products and services Formulate quality goals Formulate cost targets Construct and test prototypes Document specifications

Regulations & Legal ConsiderationsRegulations & Legal Considerations Product Liability - A manufacturer is liable for
any injuries or damages caused by a faulty product.
Uniform Commercial Code - Products carry an implication of merchantability and fitness.

StandardizationStandardization Standardization
Extent to which there is an absence of variety in a product, service or process
Standardized products are immediately available to customers
4-13 Product and Service Design
Advantages of StandardizationAdvantages of Standardization Fewer parts to deal with in inventory &
manufacturing Design costs are generally lower Reduced training costs and time More routine purchasing, handling, and
inspection procedures
4-14 Product and Service Design
Advantages of Standardization Advantages of Standardization (Cont’d)(Cont’d)
Orders fillable from inventory Opportunities for long production runs and
automation Need for fewer parts justifies increased
expenditures on perfecting designs and improving quality control procedures.
4-15 Product and Service Design
Disadvantages of StandardizationDisadvantages of Standardization
Designs may be frozen with too many imperfections remaining.
High cost of design changes increases resistance to improvements.
Decreased variety results in less consumer appeal.
4-16 Product and Service Design
• Mass customization: A strategy of producing standardized goods
or services, but incorporating some degree degree of customization
Delayed differentiation Modular design
Mass CustomizationMass Customization
4-17 Product and Service Design
• Delayed differentiation is a postponement tactic Producing but not quite completing a product
or service until customer preferences or specifications are known
Delayed DifferentiationDelayed Differentiation
4-18 Product and Service Design
Modular DesignModular Design
Modular design is a form of standardization in which component parts are subdivided into modules that are easily replaced or interchanged. It allows:
easier diagnosis and remedy of failures easier repair and replacement simplification of manufacturing and assembly
4-19 Product and Service Design
ReliabilityReliability Reliability: The ability of a product, part, or system
to perform its intended function under a prescribed set of conditions
Failure: Situation in which a product, part, or system does not perform as intended
Normal operating conditions: The set of conditions under which an item’s reliability is specified

Reverse EngineeringReverse Engineering
Reverse engineering is thedismantling and inspecting of a competitor’s product to discover product improvements.
4-27 Product and Service Design
Research & Development (R&D)Research & Development (R&D) Organized efforts to increase scientific
knowledge or product innovation & may involve: Basic Research advances knowledge about a
subject without near-term expectations of commercial applications.
Applied Research achieves commercial applications.
Development converts results of applied research into commercial applications.
4-28 Product and Service Design
ManufacturabilityManufacturability Manufacturability is the ease of fabrication
and/or assembly which is important for: Cost Productivity Quality
4-29 Product and Service Design
Concurrent EngineeringConcurrent Engineering
Concurrent engineering is the bringing together of engineering design and manufacturing personnel early in the design phase.
4-30 Product and Service Design
Computer-Aided DesignComputer-Aided Design Computer-Aided Design (CAD) is product
design using computer graphics. increases productivity of designers, 3 to 10
times creates a database for manufacturing
information on product specifications provides possibility of engineering and cost
analysis on proposed designs

Recycling: recovering materials for future use Recycling reasons
Cost savings Environment concerns Environment regulations

4-32 Product and Service Design
Service DesignService Design Service is an act Service delivery system
Facilities Processes Skills
Many services are bundled with products
4-33 Product and Service Design
Service DesignService Design Service design involves
The physical resources needed The goods that are purchased or consumed by
the customer Explicit services Implicit services
4-34 Product and Service Design
Service DesignService Design Service
Something that is done to or for a customer Service delivery system
The facilities, processes, and skills needed to provide a service
Product bundle The combination of goods and services
provided to a customer Service package
The physical resources needed to perform the service
4-35 Product and Service Design
Tangible – intangible Services created and delivered at the same
time Services cannot be inventoried Services highly visible to customers Services have low barrier to entry Location important to service
Differences Between Product Differences Between Product and Service Designand Service Design
4-36 Product and Service Design
Phases in Service DesignPhases in Service Design
1. Conceptualize2. Identify service package components3. Determine performance specifications4. Translate performance specifications into
design specifications5. Translate design specifications into delivery
specifications

Service BlueprintingService Blueprinting Service blueprinting
A method used in service design to describe and analyze a proposed service
A useful tool for conceptualizing a service delivery system
