This book will explain how the DFSS methodology begins with defining the problem or opportunity which then leads to two paths: 1) If it has never been done before, design it right the first time using DFSS. 2) If it already exists and needs to be fixed, use reactive tools such as DMAIC to proceed. Using DFSS, the approach can be simple to meet customer needs by understanding requirements, considering current process capability, finding and fixing gaps, and verifying predictions to have an end result of a happy customer.
