can anyone help with prod design & develop?

This is a take-home exam. It is due before midnight on October 27th. Your exam file must be in MS Office or PDF format. Upload your finished work to Canvas. Scan any sketches you create, or take clear pictures of them, and paste them into your document or upload them as separate attachments. The work items that you are expected to turn in are shown in red text.

This exam covers the content from your textbook, through Chapter 8, plus the supplemental materials covered during class.

You may talk with your classmates about the exam, but you must do your own work. This means that, given the subject matter and the exam requirements, there will be some inputs and ideas that will be common among many students. You must do your own work and submit your own exam files. It must be clear that some of the inputs are uniquely your own, and that the concepts and sketches you develop are your own work. Do not copy or otherwise reproduce another student’s input lists, data tables, estimates of stakeholder inputs, calculations, or sketches and put them into your own document.

Assume that you are developing a new product for holding the keys that customers carry with them every day (e.g., car keys, house keys, work keys). Use the following mission statement to complete the requirements for this exam:

Product Description	Key Holder.
Benefit Proposition	1. Lightweight 2. Slim design 3. Rugged and reliable 4. Smooth, precise operation 5. Facilitates efficient and easy use of keys
Target Market	Adults who use multiple keys on a daily basis.
Assumptions and Constraints	1. Must accommodate keys of various sizes and shapes 2. Must accommodate keys with holes as small as ¼” diameter 3. Resists becoming clogged or jammed 4. Target production cost less than ~ $ 5.00 5. Must fit easily in trouser pockets and the small compartments in various bags and backpacks, without snagging on fabric

Focal Job: Use Ke y

The focal job for this exam assignment is using a key to unlock something like your car or a door, or to activate something, such as starting your car. A job map is provided below:

1. Define · Determine what needs to be unlocked or activated.	2. Locate · Find key holder · Identify needed key	3. Prepare · Isolate needed key · Position needed key in hand	4. Confirm · Verify that proper key was selected · Verify that key is properly oriented
8. Conclude · Let go of key holding device	7. Modify · If key was used to unlock device · Remove key from lock and reposition in key holding device · Return key holding device to its storage location · Otherwise go to step 8	6. Monitor (Problem? If yes go to step 6a; if no, go to step 7.) · Did the lock engage? · If no then → 6a · If yes then → 7	5. Execute · Insert key into lock · Turn key
		6a. Resolve · Return to step 4

Do the following five problems:

1. The House Of Quality spreadsheet accompanying this exam was created in reference to the mission statement and the job map provided above, and the customer value analysis shown in the table below.

Analyze the mission statement, job map, and House Of Quality, and then make suggestions about additions or alterations you would make, in order to satisfy your own needs. The House of Quality was based on your instructor’s value analysis and interpretation of requirements. Base your answers on your own lifestyle, opinions and feelings. In particular, if you think the House of Quality does not represent all of the related jobs, social jobs, emotional jobs, outcomes, pains, and constraints that you would have considered, then list these additional items in the template below. Then discuss what you would add to, take from, or change, in the House Of Quality (i.e., the needs listed, the metrics used, and the relationships that your instructor defined).

2. Create three product concepts, each of which accomplishes each of the following four functions: 1) bind keys, 2) restrain key movement, 3) organize keys, 4) select needed key, and 5) position needed key. Devise two or three alternative sub-concepts for accomplishing each job. List and describe each sub-concept below, along with a sketch of each sub-concept. Describe and sketch only the portion of the product that would accomplish the related job. You will sketch a complete, integrated concept later. Draw your sketches on a separate sheet and then insert a picture of each concept into the appropriate cell. Name each sub concept, and type the name into the cell where the picture is located. Use the table provided below as a template for recording the information. Use only the table cells that you need.

You must use TRIZ techniques to significantly influence at least one of your sub-concepts. The TRIZ web site is located at http://www.triz40.com/TRIZ_GB.php . For any sub-concept that you created using input from TRIZ techniques, identify the contradiction pair that you used and the suggested solution that you used for inspiration. You may use the technical contradictions that your instructor identified in the House Of Quality’s roof. When you state the TRIZ contradiction used, describe the contradictions you selected from the House Of Quality AND the contradictions as that you used as input for TRIZ (e.g., you must convert the contradictions provided by your instructor into the general performance dimensions available in the TRIZ matrix).

3. Create concept combination tables, using the templates provided below. Identify three combinations of sub-concepts, so that each of the three combinations would create a feasible product concept. Mark the path through the table, as is done in the examples in your textbook (e.g., Exhibit 7-10, page 135). The cells in your concept combination tables do not need to contain pictures of the concepts, just the names you created for them (since you already named and pictured each one above).

4. Describe each of the combined product concepts in the space below. Draw a sketch of each combined product concept on a separate sheet of paper. Scan your drawings or take pictures of them. Remember to label each drawing (e.g., Product Concept 1). Paste the images into your assignment document.
