We have mentioned in earlier chapters that QFD is a key to concurrent engineering because it facilitates team members communicating with each other. This chapter presents an explicit mechanism for mapping out exactly what kind of communication must occur on the development project.

It also shows us where design bottlenecks may occur, and therefore where design breakthroughs are needed.
