Rapid Development
Balancing Speed, Quality and Efficiency in Product Development Projects

Sydney The Marriott Circular Quay - 11th & 12th August 2008 (limited to 40 seats only)
As product life-cycles shorten, the economic importance of development speed increases. Yet, many companies continue to rely on old management approaches designed for a world of sequential processes, functional organizations, and stable marketplaces... a world that no longer exists. Such methods are dangerously inappropriate. Instead, companies must create a new development environment based on cross-functional teams and highly overlapped processes. This new environment requires project trade-off rules, progressive specification, and piecewise product integration. This course is primarily based on the content of the book, "Developing Products in Half the Time: New Rules, New Tools". It focuses on the technical and quantitative tools required to execute a project rapidly. Its foundation is an approach that grounds project decisions solidly on underlying economics instead of vague philosophies.

Managing the Design Factory
A Product Developer's Toolkit

Melbourne Hilton on the Park - 13th & 14th August 2008 (limited to 40 seats only)
Achieving dramatic improvements in product development requires discarding many widely held beliefs, such as the idea that there is one best way to develop products. The purpose of this program is to demonstrate another approach to product development, one that is based on careful, fact-based analysis of underlying economics. This course focuses on practical tools and techniques that will enable you to identify high payoff improvements and justify them in financial terms. This course is primarily based on the content of the book, "Managing the Design Factory: A Product Developer's Toolkit."

Flow
Second Generation methods for Lean Product Development
Adelaide Technology Park Conference Centre, Mawson Lakes - 15th August 2008
“Lean principles” have been used for over 50 years in production processes. Companies embracing these tools in manufacturing have achieved huge economic benefits. Why not apply these principles to product development? Unfortunately, it is much harder than it sounds. This workshop will help participants identify and eliminate waste in product development and will provide an economic framework for determining which lean techniques will yield the greatest payback. Delegates will learn practical tips and strategies for applying the most important Lean techniques to product development processes.
