In fast-changing industries, margins, speed to market and product reliability are fiercely competitive.
Across all industries, companies are challenged to comply with regulations while also increasing shareholder value and protecting their brand.
The level of product, service and process deficiencies must be continuously reduced. Customers expect a product to perform its purpose for a specified amount of time under identical operating conditions.
A poor product design quality can lead to high costs when the risk is high enough for a product repair or recall to be necessary.
If you develop products that you want to be reliable and meet high quality standards for years to come, you should join this webinar to discover how to reduce the risks and consequences of product failure and costly claims for both you and your customers.
