Design for X is a tool that helps to harness the power of design in outcomes
The goal of DFX is to focus attention on the variable and/or feature of interest capable of creating the desired outcome, given all other related considerations. In most instances, the variable X is not the only avenue that could be chosen for evaluation and re-design. Complex products or systems often have several variables that can be adjusted to result in improved performance, reduced cost, etc. However, the interaction of these variables are occurring inside of constraints, (often involving size, cost, performance, serviceability, etc.) all of which need to be considered.
Design for X is one of Boston Engineering’s Centers of Excellence. Learn more about how our Centers of Excellence define and support the commitment to our clients and the organizations we serve.
At Boston Engineering, DFX is integrated throughout our product development process, starting with identifying priority DFX requirements as part of the specifications phase. Our engineers then develop concepts and detailed designs that incorporate core DFX objectives and assess resulting interrelationships and trade-offs.
