The road to production is filled with potholes. In traditional development methods one group completes one phase, then another group completes the next phase, etc. Months later, a production team may – or may not – implement the necessary processes to manufacture the product successfully.
Current development methods use a concurrent approach, with teams working to implement design solutions and production processes in parallel. In this type of development teamwork and communication skills are as important as technical expertise.
Eric R. Larson is skilled in all phases of the development process, and is highly adept working with teams in a concurrent development approach. When production problems do occur, he has specialized expertise in the following areas:
| Vendor Sourcing / Liaison Vendor Qualification Troubleshooting |
