Quality analysis

1 design for supportability.

2 logistics support for the production/construction phase.

    (10 points) sources
    (90)  What are 3 logistics activities that are likely to be added in the system use and sustaining support, and retirement phases?

For each log activity, be sure to include the name or a short title; and a brief description of the considerations in these phases. [Hint: might these may vary over time and phase?]

Q#2 (50 points). Blanchard identified 4 major factors involved in evaluating the elements of logistics support.

Major factors of logistics element

1 Test and support equipment

2 Supply support

3 Personnel and Training

4 Technical data

We might add #5 other

Alas, like so many other lists in the book he does not really tell us which of these he considers to be is the most important.

Which factor do you believe is most important? Why? [Not looking for pages on this. But more than a sentence or two is appropriate.]

Q#3 (100 points) There are some natural “pushes” for changes to occur over time.
(10 points) sprucves.
(50) what are five “pushes” for changes? Briefly describe each.
(40) Why is it important to manage changes as they occur in the product life cycle? Might the management vary depending upon the phase? Explain.

Pre-planned improvements. Start with a limited number (maybe even 1) model. But even during the early design phases we are thinking of “improved” models. More colors? More light intensity options?
Changing technology? Over the years we now are at a position where LED’s can replace many incandescent or fluorescent light bulbs.
Changing preferences. Avocado green was once a popular color for appliances. But now avocado green is mostly for those seeking a “retro” look. Stainless steel is the current “cool” finish?
Changing need? Lower carbon emission is suddenly more important?
Quality analysis helps us to find ways to do things better and/or at less cost (preferably both better and cheaper).
