Abstract: Presented is a high level approach to engineering project management and, more particularly, a method for transforming business goals of a client into a set of engineering problems which, when resolved, make the business goals achievable. A guideline for selecting main parameters of value (MPVs) of an industrial product is discussed, and then a transition from MPVs to a set of physical and technical variables (parameters) responsible for the selected MPVs is shown. Improvement of the identified variables (parameters) can be achieved using inventive problem solving combined with traditional engineering methods.

Keywords: business goals; engineering; problem solving; main parameters of value; MPVs; stakeholders; decision making; coefficients of sensitivity; project management; physical variables; technical variables; identified variables; business innovation. (search for similar items in EconPapers)
