Design of Experiments Workshop

The program is offered in both Classroom and Self-paced Digital Learning formats.

Workshop Overview

Structured Experimentation or Design of Experiments (DOE) helps Product Engineers to develop and refine designs. It is simply not possible to develop optimal designs that deliver right product performance without understanding the relationship between dependent and independent factors (& within independent factors). Unstructured experimentation consumes indefinite resources and time that no organizations have.

This is true for both Engineering Product Managers and Service Product Managers.

Similarly, both Engineering and Service Process Managers cannot optimize process parameters without conducting structured experiments.

Quality Managers have to constantly improve the quality of product, its reliability and that cannot happen without improvising design in a structured manner.

Learning Objectives

This Design of Experiments (DOE) workshop will help Product and Process Engineering Managers from both Service & Engineering Sectors to learn DOE from scratch and apply structured experimentation methods.

Learning Outcomes:

At the end of the workshop, participants will be able to:

Develop an understanding about the concepts of structured experimentation
Learn how to conduct a 2K design of experiments from scratch

Target Audience:

Mid to Senior Management Professionals who are required to develop and optimize new products and processes:

Product Managers
Process Managers
Quality Managers
Six Sigma Black Belts

Duration:

2 Days
