Can you define it~
What is DFX?
DFX is a progressive Boeing design approach with an • Model-based definition and
institutionalized collective set of product design best prac- environment (MBD/MBE)
tices. By adopting DFX, IPTs achieve innovative solutions, • Rapid prototyping & 3D printing
afford ability, first time quality, and technical excellence in applications

·
engineered systems throughout the product lifecycle. • L+ DBR (Lean+ Design Build Roadmap)
• One Boeing knowledge (TLEs, SMEs, BDEs,
Design for X means design for: TFs, CoEs, and CoPs)

Affordabilility
• Supportability The Design for Excellence (DFX) Disciplines
• Producibility 1l11. Establish clear lifecycle design
• Test • requirements and criteria
• Ergonomics & safety ~ 2. Employ true product-b~sed IPTs with
• Environment on-call expertise
• Export 3. Mature the design in an immersive,
• Reuse collaborative manner
• Value 4. Leverage the technical knowledge of
• Electronics integrity One Boeing
5. Follow a gated process for design
DFX Added Values & Attributes development
• Innovative solutions 6. Proactively mitigate risks and
• Affordability & cost-effectiveness capture opportunities
• First time quality (FTQ) 7. Drive execution by conducting weekly
• Productivity & efficiency IPT Design Reviews
