Walking the
Bridge: CSD Diagnostics to System Design Process
System Design, LLC,
works with companies to design their enterprise to effectively meet customer
needs in product design, manufacturing and long term customer support. Founded
in 2002 by Dr. David S. Cochran, former Associate Professor of Mechanical
Engineering at MIT and two-time winner of the prestigious Shingo Prize for
Excellence in Manufacturing for his work in the design of "lean"
systems, System Design, LLC provides consulting, education, and leadership
expertise in sustainable and regenerative enterprise system design to companies
around the globe.
Collective System
Designª (CSD), a methodology developed by Dr. Cochran, is built on the
Manufacturing System Design Decomposition (MSDD) and Product Delivery System
(PDS) decomposition that Dr. Cochran and his research group developed during
his 9-year tenure at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. This approach
is different from assembling machines together and attempting to implement the
buzz-word strategy of the month. CSD is a logical, customized approach to
providing a consistent, stable method of product delivery and system
implementation.
