Former Product Development Process •Product or process challenge is Offered – often proprietary.
• Engineers then define the design challenge and prepare one or more design options.
• Decision to proceed: design and develop a solution.
• A Design for Manufacture (DFM) is developed
• Prototype testing and evaluation of performance
• Production Plan and Factory implementation604/21/23
Companies have Evolved New Product Development Processes
Engineering Education has not Kept Pace with these Changes
The World is FLAT
The Current Reality of Engineering Solutions in the Global Economy
The global economy has changed the way that engineering firms design, develop, and produce their products.
704/21/23
Broadband networks, cost effective global delivery services, and global business realities mandate that all firms evaluate many design, development, and realization options available worldwide.
This mode of engineering will only increase as the world economy becomes more competitive, interdependent, and accelerated by broadband networks that facilitate global relationships.

• Regularly prepare specifications and sources sought documents
• Communicating specifications to potential partners and suppliers
• Conducting technical evaluations on the multitude of solutions available to them.
• Assessing capabilities of suppliers and partners
• Developing testing plans
• Operating in different nations and cultures

The traditional method of teaching engineering
Begin with a product or design challenge.(Problem Definition - often proprietary)
Explore possible technical approaches(Survey literature, conduct research, frame solution)
Select one or more for a design project(Apply engineering analyses)
Produce prototypes and test the design(Life cycle testing)
Develop a manufacturing solution(Develop Internal or contract manufacturing)

STRATEGIC DEPLOYMENT OF SPECIALIZED TESTING AND REMANUFACTURING IN A GLOBAL NETWORK OF CONTRACT MANUFACTURERS

MIT-Zaragoza International Logistics Program, Zaragoza Logistics Center AbstractMost research on supply chain design has been addressed from an intra-organizational perspective. Increasingly, however, traditional supply chains are outsourcing key manufacturing, assembly, and testing functions to contract manufacturers around the globe. We analyze the supply chain for electronics circuit packs which possess a mixture of analog and digital functionality. To analyze the effects of the outsourcing decisions, we employ a multi-period optimization model, taking both strategic resource allocation and material flow decisions into account. Our analysis differs from the traditional global supply chain design research in that it also focuses on the strategic allocation and deployment of testing and remanufacturing assets in a fully outsourced high-tech supply chain involving multiple contract manufacturers. Finally, we extend our analysis to determine the economic feasibility of self-testable product.

A comprehensive model for outsourcing
decision optimization that accounts for:
1. Tariff, Tax, and Currency considerations
2. In-country content requirements
3. Lowest cost EMS contract sites and site loading
levels
4. Test set capital and utilization levels
5. Shipping and warehousing logistics
6. Inventory management and Just-in-Time
constraints
7. Evolving customer mix and contract
constraints.

Preparing Students for the Global Sourcing EnvironmentThe Gaps in Engineering Education
1. Under-emphasis on translating technical challenges to RFPs, Sources Sought, & Specifications.
2. Little emphasis on technical evaluation of offered solutions.3. Significant under-emphasis on the role of performance testing against specs
and life cycle testing (TEST Plan Development)4. Little emphasis on business case vs. technical specification trade-offs.5. Under-emphasis on systems engineering, industrial engineering, and
systems level analysis. (for example: bringing many sourced sub-systems together to create a total system offer.)
6. Under-emphasis on the role of software and software testing in many engineered products.
7. Significant lack of Quality Engineering and Product Testing Statistics.8. Continued under-emphasis on DFM.9. Significant under-emphasis on sustainable engineering solutions, carbon
footprint, end of product life planning, environmental impact of product and processes to produce it.

Proposed Solution: Strategic Partnerships1. Engineering Colleges will need to create large and more complex partnerships
to better prepare their students for the 21st century economy.2. The engineering community will want these partnerships to be anchored in the
engineering colleges so that the technical solution will remain central to competitive success in the marketplace.

Academy
What’s in it for . . . . . .Multinational Corp – Develop the pipeline for engineers with: Systems Level skills, Industrial engineering, supply chain management, Business skills, quality engineering and testing, and sustainable design know-how.
Contract Manufacturers – Emphasize the importance of contract manufacturers in the global economy. Attract strong interest and better prepared employees.
Technology Suppliers & ODMs– employees who know how to operate in their world of multiple, simultaneous product categories.
A&S, Art & Design, Business Colleges – a place at the table of genuine technical challenges and industrial partnerships. For business: a chance to re-establish technical and manufacturing advantages as the true competitive advantage.
19
Engineering Colleges will:1.Better prepare their students for the careers they will actually experience. 2.Attract more students to this new, more interactive model of engineering.3.Re-center on technical excellence as the lasting competitive advantage.4.Build strong productive partnerships with firms at all levels of the value chain. 5.Move engineering education back toward problem-based learning around real world challenges that are every bit as technical, but also capture the many facets of a successful product in the 21st Century Global economy.
