The Cumulative Functions Concept
Original language description
The paper emphasizes the importance of respecting manufacturers’ and customers’ perspectives during product design. In the paper is a description of a new systematic approach to product functions. The output of the approach is the creation of cumulative product functions where both of the perspectives are covered. The first part of the paper describes the current approaches to product functions. This is followed by analysis of the functions related to the manufacturer's perspective based on the Theory of Technical Systems. The next part of the paper describes the analysis of functions related to the customer's perspective. The last part concentrates on the cumulative functions themselves. The main advantages of the cumulative functions approach can be described in the following way. Firstly, better product design (more sensitive to manufacturer and customer), where respecting both perspectives can lead to important advantages on the market. For example: an engineering department can use the advantage of cumulative functions as a source for a morphologic matrix to define the product, etc. Secondly, the controlling department, which can use the cumulative functions and target price determination (also an output of the approach) as a base for the Target Costing method.
