What do engineers need to understand about manufacturing? How can you apply that knowledge to design controls? On today\u2019s episode, our guest Tom Rish covers the topic of Design Controls. Tom is the Director of Guru Services at Greenlight Guru and a Product Development Engineer in Orthopedics.
Listen as we talk about the differences between user needs and design inputs and the pitfalls companies get into when building design controls. Tom also shares what he thinks people should understand about cross-functionality, why it sometimes makes sense to start from scratch, and using the design control process strategically.

\u201cI think that a lot of times people use design reviews and stage reviews interchangeably.\u201d
\u201cI can\u2019t even put into words how valuable it was to go down to the manufacturing floor as an engineer.\u201d
