Target Setting and Project Initialisation
Through close liaison with the client, Contechs begins programme discussions to establish a programme targets brochure. Covering all areas of the vehicle, aspects such as performance, economy, aerodynamics, NVH, quality, ergonomics, dimensional parameters, and master package are defined. Environmental considerations and end-of-life recyclability are also becoming today's standards for mainstream OEMs.
Contechs has considerable experience of setting out the critical parameters of new and unique projects. Often this type of programme is new to the client, particularly in terms of time to market and/or project process methods. Regular status reviews and client feedback ensures that target delivery is visible and on-track to deliver the expectations of the programme team. As the programme develops, inevitably, deviations and/or concessions are agreed and formally adopted into the project.
