    Skills You Will Build in This DFSS Programme

    The DMADV Toolkit in Practice

    This DFSS training builds the practical skills to run a design project end to end, from capturing customer needs to verifying a finished design. By the close of the programme you can apply the DMADV roadmap and its core tools to your own products and processes.

    Run a DMADV Design Project

    Apply the Define, Measure, Analyse, Design, Verify roadmap to design a new product, service or process to Six Sigma quality levels from the very start.

    Capture and Analyse Voice of the Customer

    Use interviews, observation and the Kano model to uncover stated and latent customer needs, then classify them to guide where design effort goes.

    Flow Down CTQs and Build a House of Quality

    Translate customer needs into measurable Critical-to-Quality requirements and use QFD to set clear, traceable engineering targets.

    Generate and Select Design Concepts

    Create multiple concepts and use the Pugh selection matrix to compare them objectively, then combine their strengths into a stronger design.

    Run a Design FMEA

    Identify failure modes, score severity, occurrence and detection, and prioritise design actions by RPN to remove risk before production.

    Apply Robust Design and Verify the Result

    Use the P-diagram, Taguchi thinking and a design scorecard to make designs insensitive to variation and verify they meet every CTQ before transfer.
