Dear reader,
Your development and production is overly expensive? You are forced to revisit your engineering cost structure and implement radical savings? You have many ideas, but you are missing concrete starting points? Then the Vector Efficiency Check is the solution for you. Within 2-3 days we analyze your situation on-site. You get as a result your prioritized efficiency potentials along with concrete improvement levers which you can implement immediately.
It is not a new topic, but always on the agenda: Forgotten, inadequately described or poorly managed requirements increase product cost by 10-30%. This is money that you can directly save and thus improve your engineering cost. How and where to start? The IEEE TechSets on Requirements Engineering authored by our consultants are globally used by professionals to get tailored training. Benefit from our practical experience.
Just one or two years ago, automotive and other industries approached the safety standards IEC 61508 and ISO 26262 with much hesitation. Today many companies are rushing to implement these standards, which is absolutely essential given the increasing complexity and relevance of electronic systems. Using our comprehensive field of competence "Functional Safety", we support you with a pragmatic yet sustainable introduction and implementation of safety standards in your company. Benefit from our experiences and benchmarks from automotive, transport and aerospace industries.
The success of products and their cost are heavily influenced by product management. Unclear product specifications, too much development flexibility and overly complex variants are the major sins in product management, which are repeated again and again. Moreover, the role of product managers is unclear in many companies. Our hands-on introductory text in the "CrossTalk" magazine provides an overview of software product management, the role of the product manager, and on practices for successful product management.
