dc.description.abstract This article evaluates the influence that quality concepts and tools in a manufacturing environment may have on parameters possibly affecting the future design and development of products in the same company. It attempts to establish how quality results can be utilised to determine the level of quality control tools used, such as Quality Function Deployment and Concurrent Engineering, in a company that designs for manufacture. By establishing links from quality results and customer requirements, the research determines what critical quality tools are necessary to determine the capability to manufacture an item without the use of excessive planning resources. en
dc.description.abstract Hierdie artikel evalueer die invloed van kwaliteitskonsepte en kwaliteitsgereedskap in ’n vervaardigingsomgewing ten einde die effek daarvan op toekomstige ontwerp en ontwikkeiling te bepaal. Die doel is om kwaliteitsresultate te gebruik om die gebruiksvlak van kwaliteitsbeheergereedskap soos bv “Quality Function Deployment” en “Concurrent Engineering” te bepaal in ’n maatskappy wat ’n ontwerpsfunksie vervul vir vervaardigingsdoeleindes. Deur hierdie verwantskap tussen kwaliteitsresultate en kliëntvereistes te ondersoek, word bepaal welke kritiese gereedskap benodig word om die kapasiteit van vervaardiging van ’n komponent te bepaal sonder die gebruik van ’n uitgebreide beplanningshulpbron. af
