What Is Quality Function Deployment?UntitledA Customer-Driven Design Method
Quality Function Deployment (QFD) is a structured, customer-driven method for translating the Voice of the Customer into specific engineering and design characteristics at every stage of product and service development. Quality Function Deployment training in Singapore equips product, quality and engineering professionals with the practical skills to capture what customers genuinely need and convert those needs into measurable design targets using the House of Quality matrix. Developed in Japan by Yoji Akao and Shigeru Mizuno and first applied at Mitsubishi's Kobe Shipyard in 1972, QFD is now a standard planning tool across semiconductor, precision engineering, medical device and consumer product design. In this hands-on one-day programme you learn to structure customer requirements, build and interpret the six rooms of the House of Quality, resolve design trade-offs, and cascade requirements through the four QFD phases from product planning to production. The training suits design engineers, quality engineers, product managers, R&D professionals and Six Sigma practitioners who apply QFD within Design for Six Sigma and DMAIC projects. It aligns with the customer-focus principles of ISO 9001:2015 and needs no prior QFD knowledge. There is no examination; you build the skill through practical exercises and receive a course completion record from Invensis Learning.
