DFSS Training
SDI's objective is to support product development organizations in their quest to produce high-quality products as cost-effectively as possible in a timely manner. The training that we offer is based on two key objectives. The first objective of a DFSS training session is to provide comprehensive training to the engineers who will be functioning in Black Belt, Green Belt, subject-matter expert, lead engineer, design engineer, or leadership roles. Second, the sessions serve as DFSS technical problem solving sessions -- just-in-time (JIT) training for cross-functional teams at the beginning of a new program or program phase.
