Taking into account the supplier involvement in the new product development (NPD), this article focuses on the synthesis evaluation, and selection of the part design scheme in part deployment process. The concepts of performance indicator (PI) and integrated performance indicators (IPI) are introduced to measure the performance of the part design scheme and product design scheme respectively. A two-layer fuzzy synthesis evaluation method is applied to assess the part design scheme in a supplier-involved new product development process. Combining the information of House of Quality (HoQ) and evaluation results of the part design scheme and taking into account the design budget, a 0–1 integer programming model is developed for selection of the parts combinatorial scheme in supplier-involved part deployment processes. A case study with a type of liquid crystal display (LCD) design in an Electronic Appliance Manufacturing Enterprise is also illustrated in the article.

Key Words: QFD • part design scheme • synthesis evaluation • 0–1 integer programming • new product development (NPD)
