20th ISPE International Conference on Concurrent Engineering CE2013

Concurrent Engineering (CE), as a concept, initiates processes with the goal to improve product quality, production efficiency and overall customer satisfaction. The definition of a product has evolved from manufacturing and supplying goods only, to providing goods with added value, to eventually promoting a complete service business solution with support from introduction into service, operations to decommissioning  Services are increasingly important to the economy: the service industry has grown significantly, and even companies that fall outside the traditional service industry are more and more reliant on service-based business. For example, in Japan, USA, Germany and Russia more than 60% of the GDP is due to service-based activities. The 20th ISPE International Conference on Concurrent Engineering will carry the theme Product and Service Engineering in a Dynamic World.
