    What Is Quality Function Deployment?UntitledA Customer-Driven Route to Better Design

    Quality Function Deployment Training in Guyana is a practical, one-day programme that teaches Quality Function Deployment (QFD), a structured, customer-driven method for turning the Voice of the Customer into specific engineering, design and process characteristics. Developed in Japan by Yoji Akao and Shigeru Mizuno, QFD is built around the House of Quality, a planning matrix that connects what customers want to how your product or service will deliver it. The training suits product designers, quality and design engineers, product and marketing professionals, and Six Sigma practitioners who want to design quality in from the start rather than inspect it in later. Across a single focused day you learn to capture and structure customer requirements, build and interpret the House of Quality, resolve design trade-offs, and cascade requirements through parts, process and production planning. For professionals in Guyana's fast-growing oil and gas, manufacturing and consumer-goods sectors, QFD is a highly transferable skill that helps teams launch better products, cut costly rework, and connect customer needs to real design decisions. Learn it with Invensis Learning and start applying the House of Quality to your own projects straight away.

    What You Will Master in QFD TrainingPractical House of Quality Techniques

    In this QFD training you will learn to capture the Voice of the Customer, build and interpret the House of Quality, and cascade customer requirements through design, parts, process and production planning. Each skill is reinforced with hands-on exercises you can apply to your own products and services.

    Capturing the Voice of the Customer

    Gather, structure and prioritise real customer needs using interviews, affinity diagrams and the Kano model, so design starts from what customers actually value.

    Building the House of Quality

    Construct the full House of Quality step by step, from customer requirements and engineering characteristics to the relationship matrix, benchmarking and design targets.

    Resolving Design Trade-Offs

    Use the correlation roof to spot where improving one characteristic hurts another, and make deliberate, evidence-based trade-off decisions early in the design.

    Setting Engineering Targets and Priorities

    Calculate column importance to find the vital few characteristics that drive customer satisfaction, then set measurable design targets for your team to work to.

    Cascading QFD Through Four Phases

    Carry requirements from product planning into parts deployment, process planning and production control, creating full traceability from customer need to output.

    Applying QFD in Six Sigma and Services

    What payment options are available?

    We accept major credit and debit cards and bank transfers, with instalment options on selected plans. Speak with a learning advisor to choose the option that best suits you or your organisation.

    Is QFD training good value for a team?

    Yes. Because the whole team builds real House of Quality skills in a single day and can apply them straight to your products, group training delivers quick, practical value. Request a quote to see the return for your team.

    Assessment

    Is there an exam for the QFD training?

    No. This is a practical, non-certification skills course with no examination. Learning is reinforced through hands-on House of Quality construction exercises, case studies and team discussion throughout the one-day programme.

    What do I receive after completing the QFD training?

    How is my learning checked during the course?

    There is no formal assessment. Instead, you build and interpret QFD matrices through guided, hands-on exercises during the day, so you leave able to apply the House of Quality to your own work rather than sit a test.

    Are there any eligibility requirements?

    None. The course is open to all and has no formal prerequisites. It introduces every QFD concept and tool from first principles, so professionals at any level can take part and benefit.

    Will I be able to apply QFD at work straight away?

    Course Content

    What topics does the QFD training cover?

    The course covers QFD foundations and business case, Voice of the Customer capture, building and interpreting the House of Quality, four-phase QFD cascading, and QFD within Six Sigma (DFSS and DMAIC) and service design, all with hands-on exercises.

    What is the House of Quality and will I learn to build it?

    The House of Quality is QFD's central planning matrix, linking customer requirements to engineering characteristics, relationships, trade-offs, benchmarking and targets. Yes, you build a complete House of Quality step by step during the training on a realistic scenario.

    Does the course cover the Voice of the Customer and the Kano model?

    Yes. You learn to collect and structure customer requirements using interviews, affinity diagrams and the Kano model, then weight their importance so the design focuses on what customers value most. These form the foundation of a sound QFD analysis.

    Does QFD training cover Six Sigma and DFSS?

    Yes. The course shows how QFD is used in the DMADV Measure phase of Design for Six Sigma and the DMAIC Define phase, translating the Voice of the Customer into critical-to-quality requirements. It complements Lean Six Sigma and design-for-quality work.
