"Help please"

Got my business exam tomorrow and i have been reading through the case study. I understand all of the words except 'simultaneous engineering'

Does anyone know what this means in Business Studies terms

If you do i'd be grateful if you could tell me.

Thanks

I'm guessing it has something to do with mechanics walking at the same time.

No.

syntax error

So its basically putting in new machinery and producing at the same time to reduce time it takes to make products?

Hope it helps!

What isn't there to get?

"A way of simultaneously designing products, and the processes for manufacturing those products, through the use of cross functional teams to assure manufacturability and to reduce cycle time."

And if you didn't know:

Cross-Functional Teams:

"[/I]teams in which instructional designers work with specialists from other fields, such as organizational development, and multi-media development and engineering.[/I]"

I don't even do Business. :)

I know what it means, but I'm not going to tell you.

I'd guess it'd be something to do with late nights at the office with your boss and sexretary.

Google it, n00b.
