Product and Service Design Processes
Product Executive Summary: Tire Design
The approach to designing tires is driven by a highly regulated product market. The standards for safety, ergonomic design and functionality are governed by a number of basic qualifying conditions that must first be met. Therefore, the appropriate design approach begins with ensuring that these conditions are met both in terms of design and the machinery and equipment that will be used to drive production.
Beyond this, design approach is governed by the required output of a given production facility. This, in turn, is determined by client demand and imposed shipping schedules and deadlines. By establishing partnerships with automakers and other larger production operations, the tire design process is governed by clear outlay of production expectations. Designing the production approach must center on achieving these expectations. For this to occur across multiple settings and with a wide range of partnerships of varying production needs, it is imperative to utilize an Enterprise Resource Planning framework or a commensurate method of IT-based inventory and production planning.
Finally, quality control must play a critical role in the design approach. Here, the goods produced by the operation must be evaluated for either individual or systemic flaws. These can be used to determine exactly how efficient a production process is as well as how effectively personnel, machinery and procedures are reaching their expectations.
It is important, after this, that the process coordinates closely with the transport and shipping strategies undertaken by the tire company. Dispatching orders and deliveries with a predictable and observable consistency will make it easy for partners and clients...
The Event Planning firm offers comprehensive strategizing, planning and execution of corporate conventions, banquets, keynote conferences and trade shows. Because all corporate events are highly subject to distinction depending upon the needs, demands and expectations of the client, the firm offers a customizable planning service that connects client specifications with high standards of quality control.
The design process for each event initiates with the assembly of planning committee. This team will gather for an initial planning stage in which client expectations are examined, roles are delegated and a preliminary schedule is articulated. This team designation will also include a direct involvement from representatives for the client. Where Event Planning is concerned, the firm functions in the capacity of a third-party vendor as well as consultant, meaning that most planning processes require a high level of collaboration with the client.
This collaboration extends into the execution of the event, where expanded personnel are placed into action. Events are evaluated through post-script reports and overall company evaluation is based on the revenue produced by these events.

First the process of co-creation will be defined, followed several examples of successful co-creations of the customer experience. 5. Customer experience is the brand and co-creation is the process A firm that migrates to a service-dominant logic will move from selling a commodity to co-creating the customer's experiences. If you utilize the brand definition in the introduction portion of this paper -- a brand is the summation of a customer's interactions
Product Management Issues Quality of Design, Performance, and TQM -- As manufacturing design and implementation became even more complex, an integrative approach to the end product became necessary. There are many theoretical rubrics for this, but one of the more stable and robust is that of TQM, or Total Quality Management. TQM, like other theories such as Six Sigma, is based on the idea that the quality of the end product
In fact, the developed world is moving very rapidly towards a greater service economy -- how can this engender a perception that these organizations are intangible and produce nothing? In fact, their model, "service," becomes even more necessary because certain process technologies remain aloof from adapting to stakeholder inputs. However, like the goal to find a unified field theory of physics to explain the universe, the unified services theory
Undoubtedly, the main beneficiary of such fierce competition is the customer who will be able to choose among several reliable products (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/iPod). Thirdly, iPod has proved to be an excellent consumer-oriented item as it has made available revolutionary features (like modern design, lighter weight, high capacity) to the masses due to the average price established. Thus, in return for a moderate sum of money, people can take with them their
