Product, Service and Process Design


Programme Overview

We spend our lives improving products, services and processes which we have inherited – wouldn’t it be better if they had been designed right to begin with? This one-day course gives delegates an introduction to designing products, services and processes using Design for Six Sigma (DfSS) and Design Thinking, along with the most commonly used tools, enabling them to be an effective member of a design team. The course can be attended via our Virtual Open training programme or inhouse where the content can be customised for your products or services and processes and include tools which will be relevant to your own design process
