Abstract

In today's highly competitive market environment with short product life cycles, the design of a product must not only satisfy the quality and the needs of customers but also ensure it has innovative values included. Therefore the study present a design process by the case of the electric scooter which is based on the concept of concurrent design. In the method, Objective Tree Analysis is first applied to identify the functions and establish the design criteria. Then, the Morphological Chart Method is applied to generate and visualize design alternatives. Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) and PUGH Concept Selection are applied to analyze and evaluate design details and obtain the optimal design concept. In this manner, an innovative electric scooter with a higher competitiveness among the current market is designed which is more nearly fits consumers' needs and the total quality is managed after the design process has been completed.
