Quality Function Deployment (QFD)

QFD is a planning tool– translates customer needs

into appropriate product development requirements

– identifies the significant items on which to focus time, product improvement efforts, and other resources

QFD is not– a quality control strategy

© GIT 2007 8

QFDQFD enables

– identification of important issues and items– identification of trade-offs

Can be an aid to achieving goals of– Quality– Cost– Timeliness

QFD is customer-driven product development

Basic Business Transaction

Customer–Wants–Needs–Desires

Supplier (products or services)–Features–Advantages–Benefits

Marketing

Mismatch −> Supplier must rely on marketing– adjust price– increase sales commissions– carry inventory– advertise– public relations

MatricesRelationships

– Whats to Hows– Strong - 9– Medium - 3– Weak - 1– Blank - No – 0

Correlation matrix– Hows to Hows– Positive and negative

Not always intuitive

Competitive Analyses

Example: – Truck A was perceived

as slower than Truck B.

– Technically, this was not true; why was it so perceived?

– Truck Awas quieterwas sturdier / stifferlagged before it took off

Example House of Quality: A Cup of Coffee

What– Hot– Taste– Smell– Stimulating– Color– Grounds– Not poisonous – Cost

How– Serving temperature (Hot)– Taste jury (Taste)– Smell jury (Smell)– Measure caffeine level

(Stimulating)– Color standard (Color)– Filter & weigh (Grounds)– Measure LD 50 (Limit poison)– Price ($)

Expectations are Important

Standards are:– Set– Change (Starbucks)

Examples:– Sun visor mirrors– Cargo net– Double cups for hot coffee; cardboard bands

Benchmarking is important– Compare to your competition– What if you have no competition?

4 Phases of QFD (Car Door Example)

Product planning– Close door easily– Close fit

Part deployment– Weather strip– Latch

Process planning (Weather strip)

– Extrude

Production planning– Temperature– Pressure– Speed
