👉 Simultaneous engineering is an integrated approach to product development where multiple disciplines—such as design, manufacturing, quality assurance, and supply chain management—are considered and addressed concurrently, rather than sequentially. This method fosters cross-functional collaboration from the outset, enabling teams to identify and resolve potential issues early in the design phase, optimize processes for efficiency and quality, and ensure that all aspects of a product's lifecycle are aligned with business goals. By working together simultaneously, engineering teams can create more innovative, cost-effective, and reliable products that better meet customer needs and market demands.
