Optimizing Product Development Projects Based on the Clustered Product Design Structure Matrix (DSM)

Abstract:

In order to integrate the process structure with the product structure in product development (PD) projects, this paper proposes a quantitative model for measuring the dependency strength between activities based on the dependency relationship in the product Design Structure Matrix (DSM). Utilizing the quantitative model and the Multi-Domain Matrix (MDM) between process and product domain, the corresponding process DSM is obtained. Furthermore, this paper presents a sequencing optimization method for the process DSM based on rework probability DSM matrix and rework impact DSM matrix and a clustering method for the product DSM. An example is provided to illustrate the utility of the models. The optimization results yield several managerial insights, including: optimize product components and activities simultaneously, how product structure impact on PD process structure and its schedule.
