Summary
Focuses on developing, implementing, optimizing, and validating the processes, tooling, fixtures, and equipment used to manufacture products at production scale. Distinct from product/design engineering (which defines what is built) and from quality engineering (which governs conformance testing) — this focus owns HOW products are produced efficiently, repeatably, and cost-effectively, spanning process design, line layout, automation, DFMA, pFMEAs, and transfer of new products into mass production.
