Deep Dive: Set-Based Concurrent Engineering and Integration Events

Fans of Allen Ward's work, especially his book, Lean Product and Process Development often get excited by the possibilities for using set-based concurrent engineering (SBCE) to eliminate technical risk. What is it, really? Why does generate value even though it looks wasteful? How does it work in practice? What are integration events and how do they support SBCE? Join Durward Sobek, PhD on a tour of SBCE theory and practice.

Deep Dive sessions include a presentation to facilitate learning and dialogue, with ample time for Q & A and discussion. This is your opportunity to explore an aspect of lean product development in depth, and leave with ideas for how to make it work in your organization.
