Abstract
This paper presents a method to scan for process improvements in the product development process by means of reducing wasted time and optimizing the information flow. The method addresses the initiatives Lean Engineering, Knowledge Management, and Knowledge Based Engineering to make an effective trade-off. The improvement focus is on the application of automation through Knowledge Based Engineering.
