USING FUZZY QFD TO ENHANCE MANUFACTURING STRATEGIC PLANNING

Journal of the Chinese Institute of Industrial Engineers, 2003
Decision-makers frequently need to develop new strategic plans to correct weaknesses or build new strengths for a changing business condition. Through QFD (Quality Function Deployment) analysis, conceptual requirements in strategic plans can be translated into program items that are operable, measurable, and capable of producing improvement.

Design for Remanufacturing - A Fuzzy-QFD Approach

2013
This paper proposes a methodology based on fuzzy sets theory and qualify function deployment (QFD) for integrating the various remanufacturing design factors into the initial product definition stage and providing a compromising solution for different or sometimes conflicting design requirements.

Fuzzy QFD approach for managing SCOR performance indicators

Computers & Industrial Engineering, 2018
Abstract The Supply Chain Operations Reference (SCOR) KPIs are widely used to measure supply chain performances by industrial practitioners. However, it is still difficult to determine what actions should be carried out to improve the KPIs. This paper proposes a new fuzzy QFD approach to manage the SCOR KPIs.
