Abstract
A new philosophy is proposed for obtaining improved product designs in shorter time periods using established concepts from engineering and management science. This philosophy is a simple systematic approach with sufficient flexibility to serve various product types, different time frames for action, and achieve a variety of conditions of acceptance. Four phases of effort make up the product design regimen. Each phase must be managed by selecting the appropriate techniques and allocating research and development efforts. Two case studies are presented to illustrate this philosophy.
