Develop the PMP

Understanding, defining and implementing all the tasks involved in a parts management process is the key to its success, and should be fully described in the plan. The participation of the following functional disciplines are necessary to enable, in a concurrent engineering fashion, an effective process:
  • Components Engineering
  • Design (system and parts)
  • Reliability Engineering
  • Manufacturing Engineering
  • User
Successful implementation of the PMP must have management participation and support to ensure cooperation among disciplines and resolve any differences based on the ultimate impacts on cost, schedule and performance.
