Small QFD/FMEA Approach - Using QFD technologies to link customer complaints to failures out of FMEA
Small QFD/FMEA - a methodology mix that guarantees improvement for future products at least for the known consumers problems of the today's products.
The focus of Small QFD/FMEA is not on the innovative side but during the analysis often the necessity is shown to think about totally new concepts because the existing ones can not be improved in a way to avoid certain consumer complaints.
Small QFD/FMEA is designed to show where to prioritise during development and to follow up the quality level measured by - consumer complaints - over the whole project progress.

Customer Oriented Evaluation of QFD-Tools
For many enterprises QFD is a helpful tool for developing new products or services. The
complexities of the method are the reason, that merely the House of Quality is made, the
application of secondary tables, matrices or tools is neglected.
One possibility for improvement is the use of a software tool that simplifies, accelerates
and that makes - by a combination of different quality techniques - the work with QFD
even more efficient.
