"Design to cost is a management strategy and supporting methodologies to achieve an affordable product by treating target cost as an independent design parameter that needs to be achieved during the development of a product." [1]
Applications of this methodology include the dollar a gallon gasoline project.
(Fast links)
- Dollar a gallon gasoline
- Penny a kWh
- Hundred dollars a kg
- Miller's method
