Design Methods and Design Management


Academic Staff

Fields of competence

The aim of our research is to develop the engineering methods and processes of tomorrow for industrial product development and university teaching in mechanical engineering. Our research focuses on current challenges in advanced systems engineering and the development of cyber-physical systems. In innovation formats, we generate direct impact in development practice. Our unique selling point is the holistic view of development methods and processes from corporate strategy to innovation management, product management and pre-development through to technical problem solving with the human being at the center.

  • SGE - System Generation Engineering: Develop where it pays off. We support you in aligning your development activities for new product generations based on your core competencies and suitable for your product portfolio.
  • ASD - Agile Systems Design: Structured planning - agile execution: Innovate flexibly with measure and purpose. We develop methods to determine and implement the right level of agility and measure the success of the transformation.
  • Product development in distributed teams: Product development in times of globalization: We digitalize product development and enable worldwide collaboration across development locations and cultures.
  • Knowledge management: We enable your development by a pro-active integration of knowledge management methods.
  • Product strategy & foresight: Looking ahead is essential in order to be successful tomorrow! The use of situation- and demand-oriented methods of strategic potential identification is therefore absolutely essential in order to plan innovative product architectures and system generations.
  • Innovation management: Innovation requires market success. The necessary building blocks for this are a valid product profile based on customer needs, new technical solutions or inventions and a successful market launch with the right business model. We develop methods and tools integrated into holistic innovation processes that support all of the above.
  • Knowledge management: We empower your product development through the proactive integration of knowledge management methods.
  • Design methods: The problem-solving methodology SPALTEN is a universal methodology for systematic problem solving. We are researching virtual design methods to exploit creative potential.
  • Sustainable product development and circular economy: Higher-value R strategies (reuse, refurbish/repair, remanufacture) offer great potential, but pose major challenges in terms of implementation. We are researching methods and processes to develop products for the circular economy at a cross-generational subsystem level and to consider the associated production system (product-production co-design).
  • System modelling and modularization: The complexity of today's cyber-physical systems can be countered by (model-based) systems engineering (MBSE) and view-based development. In order to remain competitive over the entire product life cycle, updates and upgrades must be planned in advance.
