Development of New Product/Process Development Procedure for SMEsThe result of our research is a developed and implemented set of activities for new process or product development (NPD procedure) for SMEs environment in the plastic processing industry, which enables the production of products and services with a high value added.The developed NPD procedure consists of five consecutive and overlapping steps: attracting orders, designing a project, developing a product, developing a process and zero production series. Each distinct step is further divided into sub-activities supported by adequate methods and managed in an information system. Investigated and included were three different methodologies use for NPD procedure in the automotive industry such as Advanced Product Quality Planning (APQP), Design for Six Sigma (DFSS) and Stage/Gate methodology.The results presented in the paper show that the developed NPD procedure significantly improved NPD in terms of cost management and time-effectiveness.

Abstract. The aim of this study is to discuss new product development based on a traditional stage-gate process and to examine how new product development [NPD] tools, such as lean design for Six Sigma, can accelerate the achievement of the main goals of NPD: reliable product quality, cost-effective implementation, and desired time-to-market. These new tools must be incorporated into a new approach to NPD based on the Advanced Product and Quality Planning methodology.Keywords: analysis of variance (ANOVA), design for Six Sigma, DMAIC, industrialexperimentation, robust designResumen. El objetivo de la presente investigación es la promoción de una discusión teórica y practica sobre el enfoque tradicional de lanzamiento de nuevos productos bajo la metodología por fases. Una revisión a profundidad cómo las nuevas herramientas del desarrollo de nuevos productos en lo particular el diseño para seis sigma puede acelerar el tiempo de respuesta al mercado de forma exitosa y a una relación atractiva de costo – beneficio. Las nuevas herramientas pueden ser incorporadas dentro de la estrategia dedesarrollo de nuevos productos bajo el enfoque de planeación avanzada de la calidad de nuevos productos.Palabras clave: análisis de varianza, diseño para seis sigma, diseño robusto,experimentación industrial, metodología DMAIC

This paper purpose is to investigate the benefits of Lean Six Sigma to the Malaysian automotive industry. Lean is an approach that seeks to improve flow in the value stream and eliminate waste. It’s about doing things quickly. Six Sigma uses a powerful framework (DMAIC) and statistical tools to uncover root causes to understand and reduce variation. It’s about doing things right (defect free). As global competition continues to grow, the pressure to improve becomes more andmore intense. Thus, a combination of both Lean and Six Sigma is born. This method provides an over-arching improvement philosophy that incorporates powerful data-driven tools to solve problems and create rapid transformational improvement at lower cost. Thus, this paper also tries to examine how the Lean Six Sigma can contribute and brings a positive impact to the automotive industry in Malaysia.
