Design Excellence
For manufacturing companies, both the greatest risks
and greatest potential for rewards involve the development and launch of new products.
How many companies have lost millions of dollars every time they have launched a
new product? In the Design Excellence initiative, we ensure that your launches are
consistently successful. We work with you to analyze your current product design
processes to determine your product design lead-time, how you develop new product
ideas, how you innovate, how you commercialize new products, and how you determine
and achieve overall Design Policies and Objectives. This provides a snapshot of
your current design processes and helps us determine if you are you a leader or
a follower. Once your current state is determined, we map out a program that will
help make your product design efforts the most advanced in the world.
The first step in The Omnex Design Excellence initiative involves aligning design
policies and objectives with overall business strategy. This enables you to utilize
your management system to track how these policies and objectives are deployed within
the organization. We then work with you to examine your approach to project management
and setting objectives for each new product launch. What program management tools
are being used to coordinate a launch that involves multiple design and manufacturing
teams? Will the product meet the overall design goals? Is the launch executed within
the budgeted costs?
In the Omnex Design Excellence initiative, the entire design and development process
is studied and dissected for contributors/inhibitors to overall success. The Omnex
Design Excellence initiative studies the overall design process, the integration
of product and process technology, simultaneous engineering, innovation, and the
rapidity of the process. We show you how to incorporate DFM and DFA in design rules.
Effective project management and customer satisfaction methods are deployed to identify
the success and failure factors in a design organization so you can continually
assess and improve. Developing new products on time, on budget, with first pass
success, a ppm level of six sigma, and overall customer satisfaction is the goal
of the Omnex design excellence process. Omnex believes effective use of this process
will result in major reductions in design costs while significantly increasing design
throughput and engineering productivity. The Omnex Design Excellence initiative
will provide both the tools and the system to achieve remarkably predictable success
in your organizations product launches.

How Do I Get Started?
The first step involves an Omnex visit to conduct our Performance Excellence Assessment.
The assessment will include interviews with top management, review of performance
data, customer data, product performance data, process performance, and a documentation
assessment. We will visit your corporate headquarters, design centers, manufacturing,
sales and distribution locations. After the assessment is completed, a presentation
will be developed that includes findings in the areas of Management Systems, Customer
Relationship Management, Design Excellence, Operational Excellence, Business Excellence,
and Knowledge Management, as well as our overall conclusions and recommendations.
Following the assessment, we will work with a top management team to finalize the
recommendations and translate them into actions. The actions are then prioritized
so that they can be assigned to senior managers who will then work with us to implement
them and to begin your journey towards true Performance Excellence.
