Agile Engineering Industry

HURDLES FOR AGILE ENGINEERING

substantial obstacles to implementing agile working principles on the product side. These include relatively high cost/long lead times for prototype parts, existing supplier relationships and business models, product architectures and “modular kits” designed in traditional waterfall approaches, and a limited and costly rollout opportunity for most of the components and systems in scope.

we believe that automotive firms in pursuit of change will need to cultivate a completely new engineering ecosystem internally. In the process, agile will affect three major dimensions of R and D organization, product, and engineering system.

Agile methodology Benefits of Agile Ensgineerings industry as follows:

• Continuous collection of feedback from customers means that designs are tracking with customer needs.
• The interplay between design, engineering, manufacturing, and marketing allows teams to understand each other's needs and challenges better
• Each iteration gives you a physical prototype to hold and discuss. Kinesthetic learners, experiential learners, non-technical people in a technical meeting, people new to the subject matter—they will all learn from holding and discussing an actual prototype
• Testing the physical prototype helps you identify and solve problems
• More, quicker, and cheaper iterations mean that a higher number of possible solution paths can be explored.
• Continuous testing means that engineering risks are exposed throughout the process.

Agile product development and engineering tests prototypes, and it improves them with consumer feedback. This method develops products quicker and reduces risk.
