Design
for Total Affordability
Achieving higher performance
with less cost is at the top
of every organization's
agenda today. Manufacturers
have long known that dollars
spent up front on
affordability have a much
greater return than those
spent late in the design
cycle. Yet most have failed
to use a new structure and
way of design thinking to
make this really happen.
In these times of shrinking
budgets, the tactic of
squeezing out saving through
late-in-the game cost
reduction initiatives rarely
meets the cost reductions
programs demand. Over 75% of
all program costs are set in
motion at the early design
concept stage. Attacking
cost at this early stage
requires a design method and
measurements that
systematically surfaces and
reduces all life cycle
costs. The Huthwaite
Innovation Institute will
work with your organization
using a complete systems
approach to accomplish
design for total
affordability.

Design
for Defense Affordability
The Huthwaite Innovation
Institute has more than 25
years of helping DoD
suppliers design products
through its methodology
known as Lean Innovation.
This is a way of identifying
potential cost drivers and
reducing them through more
effective design without
compromising system
performance. The result:
Higher performance, lower
cost. More than 1,000
integrated product and
process team have benefited.
