    Description:

    DoD Systems Engineering guidance states, "Producibility is a design accomplishment for the relative ease of manufacturing. Like manufacturing and other system design functions, producibility is integral to delivering capability to the warfighter effectively and efficiently. Producible designs are lower risk, more cost-effective, and repeatable, which enhances product reliability and supportability." However, most existing DoD producibility guidance was published during the 1980s and 1990s and may not align with current DoD engineering practices and evolving advanced manufacturing capabilities. To address this knowledge gap, during 2023 the Office of Secretary of Defense (Research and Engineering) is developing a new Producibility Guide to be released by the end of 2023. This Webinar provides an overview of concepts to be included in the new guide. The presentation will include an overview of producibility principles and concepts and will also address example best practices for technical teams to include producibility as a design consideration starting with system concept development (Pre-Material Development Decision).  The discussion will also describe the major activities of a producibility system to include: producibility planning, producibility engineering, process capability and control, and measuring and improving manufacturing processes, and relationship to quality and reliability. Finally, the presentation will discuss advanced manufacturing and potential advantages for digital engineering, modelling and simulation, digital manufacturing, and Industry 4.0 technologies to enhance producibility. Attention to producibility during system design directly supports the DoD and R&E modernization priority for improved transition of technologies and prototypes to fielded capabilities. The guide encourages development and design project teams to include producibility considerations to design warfighter capabilities that can be produced feasibly and that will meet quality requirements with improvements in schedule, cost as the system proceeds through development and transition to production.
