Smaller companies are not immune to the design challenges inherent to the increasing complexity of electrical and electronic (E/E) systems. In fact, due to their very natures, small scale manufacturing and design companies may be even more affected by these changes than their larger counterparts.
In this brief, read about the new age of complexity and specific challenges and recommendations for small and medium-sized business from Chad Jackson, lead Chief Analyst at Lifecycle Insights.
A recent study cited in the brief show engineering respondents are noticing the across-the-board rise in complexity. This paper guides smaller engineering and manufacturing companies in addressing this product development challenge and looks closely at the issues driving rising E/E complexity, assesses the need for more collaboration and coordination across suppliers and engineering teams, and analyzes the impact of cloud-based software-as-a-service (SaaS) solutions.
