Unleashing the Power of 3P

A guide for Production Preparation Process (3P) execution, this book presents a step-by-step methodology for successful implementation of even the most aggressive corporate change programs. The authors provide methods that can be applied to any combination of product, process, and facility design to help reduce costly redesign iterations and associated delays.
