4.0 out of 5 stars
Good reference text,
This review is from: Product Design and Development (Hardcover)
This is a good reference manual for understanding the various techniques that are available for the fuzzy front end of product design. It would be a good text for project managers in product development.
PROs 1) It is well written and easy to assimilate. 2) Seems complete for the traditional manufactured consumer product. CONs 1) Not strong on a current pre-emptive DFSS techniques for robustness and quality (such as QFD and axiomatic design). 2) Does not address system complexity issues and tools (software vs hardware, interface issues, complexity, functional flows).

Clearly Better Than Stage-Gate,

This review is from: Product Design and Development (Hardcover)
Ulrich has created an understandable companion text for product development. What is refreshing about this text is that it guides the developer through the elements of product development that are essential to reducing the concept of the product to practice. It is a great instructional guide.

PDD by Eppinger/Ulrich,

This review is from: Product Design and Development (Hardcover)
I'm taking this course at MIT taught by Eppinger, and it provides a good quantitative approach to a process that's otherwise very organic and unpredictable. Direct cause and effect approach.

This review is from: Product Design and Development (Hardcover)
I have the pleasure of taking a seminar with the author, but I was disappointed at his writing. The book is hard to follow, and lack structure.
