| Tiivistelmä: | Design for manufacture and assembly techniques generally focuses on manufacturing capability and ignores capacity although both should be considered. Similarly, most modelling and evaluation tools avalaible to examine the performance of various solution and improvement techniques have a narrower scope than desired. A unique collaboration, funded by the US National Science Foundation, between researchers in the USA and the UK currently addressed these problems. This paper describes a technique known as design for the existing environment (DFEE) and an holistic evaluation system based on enterprise simulation that was used to demonstrate the business benefits of DFEE applied in a simple product development and manufacturing case study. |
