参与新产品开发（NPD）的中小型企业（SME）面临着许多挑战，包括最大限度地降低新产品开发成本，满足高质量需求，以及缩短新产品开发时间表。然而，人们普遍承认，任何组织实际上只能希望实现其中两个或三个目标。例如，公司可能能够在短时间内提供高质量的产品，但这通常需要大量投资才能实现。为了满足这些需求，设计师可能需要在设计复杂的多学科产品时使用大量的知识。这通常涉及利用大量的专业知识和信息，这些知识和信息通常记录不全，难以获取，但对成功的新产品开发至关重要。因此，显然需要某种计算机支持，以协助设计人员完成复杂的多学科设计过程。本文介绍了初步调查结果，从一个修订…
Small-to-medium sized enterprises (SMEs) involved in new product development (NPD) face many challenges including minimizing NPD costs, meeting high quality demands, and reducing NPD timescales. It is generally acknowledged, however, that any organization can only realistically hope to meet two or three of these goals. For instance, companies might be able to deliver high quality products in a short time - but this will generally require substantial investment to achieve. In an attempt to meet these demands designers may have to use vast amounts of knowledge during the design of complex multidisciplinary products. This often involves the utilization of large amounts of specialist knowledge and information which is usually poorly documented and difficult to access, but is crucial to successful NPD. There is an obvious need, therefore, for some sort of computer support that will assist the designer through the complex and multidisciplinary design process. This paper presents the initial findings from a revi...
