The beauty of technology is its constant advancement, growth, and evolution. It can never be contained or segmented. The possibilities are limited solely by the intentions behind its use. But, as previously seen in the program Management of Technology: Roadmapping & Development, we can understand and leverage technology to improve almost any aspect of our lives.

La clave del éxito en las operaciones de fabricación radica en la capacidad del diseño y las familias de producto para adaptarse al mercado mundial. En este sentido, es necesario conseguir los objetivos marcados a corto plazo y mantener los estándares de eficiencia de la producción en masa. En este programa, se analiza el uso del diseño de plataformas para aumentar con éxito la variedad de una línea de productos, acortar los plazos de fabricación y reducir los costes generales asociados.

In today’s highly competitive and volatile market, rapid innovation and mass customization offer a new form of competitive advantage—pushing organizations to implement strategies for designing and developing an entire family of products. In our eight-week Designing Product Families: From Strategy to Implementation course, you will explore how product architecture, platforms, and commonality can help you successfully deploy and manage a family of products.
