    Skills You Will Build in QFD Training

    Practical House of Quality Capability

    This QFD training gives you a complete, practical command of the House of Quality and the four-phase QFD system. By the end of the one-day programme you can run a Voice of the Customer exercise, build and interpret a House of Quality, and cascade requirements from customer need to production control.

    Capture the Voice of the Customer

    Learn to gather, structure and prioritise customer requirements using interviews, observation, surveys and the affinity diagram, so the true Voice of the Customer anchors every design decision.

    Apply the Kano Model

    Classify requirements as must-be, performance or delighter needs so you can allocate design effort where it drives the most customer satisfaction, rather than treating every requirement the same.

    Build the House of Quality

    Construct all six rooms of the House of Quality step by step: customer requirements, engineering characteristics, the relationship matrix, the correlation roof, competitive benchmarking and engineering targets.

    Interpret the House of Quality

    Calculate absolute and relative technical importance, find design hot spots and conflicts, and translate the completed matrix into a prioritised, evidence-based engineering specification.

    Cascade QFD Through Four Phases

    Carry customer requirements through the four-phase QFD system: product planning, parts deployment, process planning and production planning, keeping a traceable link from customer need to production control.

    Integrate QFD with DFSS and DMAIC

    Use QFD as the core Voice of the Customer tool in the DFSS DMADV Measure phase and the DMAIC Define phase, and apply it to service and software design as well as manufacturing.
