Abstract
This paper shows a new method for minimizing the New
Product Introduction (NPI) time of electronics
manufacturing. The Fast Ramp-Up project defines the
constructed and tested framework used for controlling the
process from R&D to the production ramp-up process in the
electronics industry. The suggested construct is based on
tailored simulation games and change management measures.
Thus, the Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) and the
Contract Electronics Manufacturers (CEMs) practiced the
NPI process by using simulation games. The
characteristics of a successful NPI process are also
described.
