Successful introduction of new products ahead of the competition keeps companies ahead of the game. By their nature, greater innovation drives higher variability and lower predictability. Excessive delays and costs on a new product can result in missing critical market windows and ultimately put the company’s future at risk. Ensuring products are delivered on plan and to budget while meeting market expectations is a difficult task in today’s complex and dynamic environment.

CBS has developed Lean 6 Sigma based processes and proprietary support tools that eliminate waste in the design process and provide on-going work task management control never previously attained. The CBS process provides real-time visibility for new issues as they arise in the product design process and ultimately yields superior design cost and Lean-times. CBS assists customers with achieving product objectives by improving program performance from the initial program definition and design, through the production of prototype, the manufacture and post production service.
