Metrics

“A performance metric is a measure of an organization's activities and performance”, ….WikipediA

Metrics – Quantifiable dimensions of performance and cost of the system that your project addresses. Eg;

Weight (Newtons) Size (l,h,w) cm;cm3

Cycle Time (seconds)

Repeatability Coefficient : a precision measure which represents the value below which the absolute difference between two repeated test results may be expected to lie with a probability of 95%.

Availability (%)= MTBF/MTBF+MTTR

Structured Process Tools

• Spreadsheet based methods

- Hierarchical mapping - Weighted comparisons (Eg: Udesign; Dym &Little)

- NPV analysis

• Functional Diagramming

- Product (sponsor’s customer) functions - Process functions & Product flow

Wrap Up and Path Forward

Transition from Sponsor Night to 1st Sponsor Meeting • Tuesday, 8/28, after class:

Team selects single point-of-contact individual (SPoC) SPoC makes team UD-email distribution list (team DL) Advisors send project alignments and sponsor contact information

to MEEG401 class email list

• Wednesday, 8/29, by end of day: SPoC send team DL to advisor, with contact phone number for SPoC SPoC contacts sponsor to schedule initial interaction (for PM, 8/30) Arrange for travel (transportation, directions, etc. - see web for info) SPoC contacts advisor (advisor schedules) for introductory meeting prior to first meeting with sponsor Develop agenda for first meeting Research sponsor business and relevant technology - start background

research and 'benchmarking'


Transition from Sponsor Night to 1st Sponsor Meeting (cont.)

• Thursday, 8/30: Send agenda to sponsor (and post to online logbook) Team meets and works at sponsor business: o- Be prepared - present /follow your agenda, keep minutes, ask questions (Note: be flexible & adjust agenda based upon any sponsor constraints) o- Present finalized team resume to sponsor (and post to online logbook) o- Plan to work at sponsor most of the afternoon o- Advisor will attempt to stop at each sponsor (contact advisor if leave before advisor arrives - or make arrangements) Have team picture taken with team-members identified o- send to sponsor and advisor o- post on Sakai

• Begin continuous communication process!


Example of a good team photo:


Sponsor Interaction Issues

• Professionalism - Being Prepared

• Sponsor(s) as Customer/Partner, Team Member

• Project Results/ Patent Potential

Confidentiality: Business Sensitive Information

Intellectual Property Agreements

Patenting Issues

• Continuous Communication

Engineering Student Shop 10th Annual Open House

Fine Print

Please note that the terms “food”, “fun” and “door prizes” are all subjective terms. In this case, the term “food” is defined as hot dogs and fixins, baked beans, jalapeno cornbread, tomato-

cucumber salad, Black bean salsa and chips, chocolate chip cookies and cold beverages. “Fun” is a completely subjective term and is therefore left to your own definition. "Door Prizes” may

consist of old wrenches or tools that have no practical use other than as a paperweight. The decision of the judges is final in all contests and games of chance. No purchase necessary. During

the Open House, the shop rules concerning safety glasses and proper shop attire will be waived. Your mileage may vary. Illustration from xkcd.com.

No Excuses!
