Metrics & KPIsNumber of Engineering Changes
Definition
Average number of monthly engineering changes approved for each design. A high ratio may indicate poor upfront product design, especially if the number of engineering changes increase after design release, or if there is high innovation before design release. A low ratio may indicate lack of insight into potential problems downstream. This computation can be applied to the design of a complex product or to a subset of that product. This measure needs to be customized to the client's environment.
