New product introduction (NPI) is a risky endeavor that requires your team to engage with a product they have never seen, and anticipate risks they may have never encountered. Issues with unknown tolerances, material differences, timing constraints, critical paths for suppliers and more can surface at milestones.
Plexus International can assist you in the launch activities associated with your NPI, or what some refer to as New Product Development (NPD). In the automotive world we typically accomplish this through the core tool of Advanced Product Quality Planning (APQP), or AS9145 for aviation, space and defense organizaions. Do not let the acronyms fool you, when you bring a product from concept to launch, you are, in fact, engaging in NPI.
In partnership with the AIAG, Plexus offers training solutions for each of the core tools for automotive, aerospace, and all other sectors of manufacturing. Explore training programs for each of the AIAG Core Tools, or click here to learn more.
