Proposta de sistematização do processo de desenvolvimento de produtos em uma indústria têxtil automotiva

Abstract

This paper presents a systematization proposal for the development of products in an automotive textile industry. The proposal starts from the need of the industries to review the current product development processes in order to remain in the market and follow the company's business strategy. Management addresses the suggestion of an alternative generic reference template for product development for this type of segment. As a starting point, we present the bibliographic review of the stages of the development process and the software used in project management. In sequence, the steps of the Product Development Management Process were identified, inserting the MS-Project into the structure of each stage of the PDP. Finally, a tissue development simulation was done using MS-Project, in order to present the utility of this software in the PDP. As a main contribution, this work presents a reference model to help the industries to plan their development processes and consequently increase the chances of success of the product and to demonstrate the importance of having each stage of development process well defined to arrive at a product that suits the needs of customers. As a result, it can be affirmed that the proposed tool contributes to the management of product development and that the proposed structuring of a specific model for the automotive textile sector are adequate for a future implementation.
