Dear Reader,
Testing consumes almost half of the life-cycle costs of technical products and is absolutely necessary for product quality and market success – as recent incidents, that were immediately published, show. The presentations from Draeger, Ford, Porsche, Siemens and Thales highlight how state-of-the-art testing methodologies, better test processes and tools can help to optimize testing and thus quality while reducing cost and cycle time.
The supply chain offers ample opportunity to reduce cost and improve efficiency. Vector is extensively consulting on supplier management and distributed development. We have collected our experiences and a number of case studies into several free white papers.
Metrics and performance indicators help you to stay in control. They support the evaluation and monitoring of projects and processes and thus help to improve results. Our benchmark shows how and what to measure. It emphasizes real-world experiences and provides benchmarks for projects and processes. You'll get hands-on insight and examples to transfer to your own environment and needs.
You already have several years of experience and knowledge on requirements engineering? You want to underline your experiences by becoming a "Certified Professional for Requirements Engineering“. IREB together with Vector share the mission to make requirements engineering more professional and to establish international standards. Vector supports the certification with a hands-on training which includes the exam for the certification.
Humor also means being able to laugh in the face of adversity. Even the best products have difficulties where there is not yet a market. Allow yourself two minutes to watch innovation management in the stone age.
