design for manufacturability, design for assembly or design for production

the process of designing a product for best-fit with the manufacturing system of an organization in order to reduce the problems of bringing a product to market. Design for manufacturability is a team approach to manufacturing that pairs those responsible for the design of a product with those who build it. The manufacturing issues that need to be taken into account in the design process may include using the minimum number of parts, selecting appropriate materials, ease of assembly, and minimizing the number of machine set-ups. Design for manufacturability is one of the elements of concurrent engineering and is sometimes used as a synonym for it.
