Product Design Review: A Method for Error-Free Development

Strengths: 1) This book presents a very critical subject which is going to play an important role in improving productivity, customer satisfaction via avoided costs (seen through reduction in installation and waranty costs, reduced costs of transfering product to volume manufacturing).2) Presents consolidated information from various Japanese companies.3) Gives a glimpse of how Japanese companies are actually practicing this important technique.Weaknesses:1) I would have liked the cases to be more detailed describing every step of design review in more details. This would have given readers a good head start if they were looking for a template.Overall: Considering there is very little literature available on this important subject since most of it is company confidential, this book at least addresses this important subject and presents at least some details via case studies.A must read for someone who wants to understand, write DR procedures.thanks,
